About Agnieszka

Agnieszka Maj is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of practice. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, self-esteem issues and depression. She also addresses attachment difficulties, body image, codependency, and feelings of guilt and shame.

Agnieszka uses a humanistic stance and sees each person as an individual. She blends different approaches rather than sticking to one set method. That flexibility means she adapts how she talks and what she offers to fit the person in front of her.

In sessions she aims to help people clarify what matters to them and to strengthen a more stable sense of self. Conversations may focus on recognising patterns, noticing how past experiences shape present reactions, and finding clearer ways to communicate with others. She works with issues that arise from trauma, abusive relationships and gender identity.

Her approach draws on client-centred work and psychodynamic ideas, alongside existential and Jungian themes when they fit. Solution-focused techniques are also used for practical steps and short-term goals. This mix allows for both exploration of deeper patterns and concrete changes.

Agnieszka offers sessions in English and Polish. People who want to begin are asked to use the online booking route, complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first appointment. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions

A client-centred approach focuses on listening and responding to the person rather than imposing a plan. It is useful for building trust, exploring how someone feels about themselves, and working through shame or guilt in day-to-day life.

Psychodynamic ideas look at how past relationships and patterns influence current feelings and choices. This can help when guilt or shame seems linked to earlier experiences or ongoing relationship patterns.

Solution-focused work aims at small, practical steps and clearer goals. It is helpful when someone wants concrete changes or strategies to reduce distress in specific situations.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and help decide which methods match the client's needs, goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and may change as the work progresses.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around daily life, such as having shorter check-ins during a busy day or avoiding travel time. They can also allow for flexible scheduling and for using different ways of working together to suit practical needs.
