About Kat

Kat Januchowska is a counsellor who helps people feeling overwhelmed, not enough, or unsure where they fit. She offers a calm space to talk through daily stress, anxiety, grief and relationship strain. Many clients seek help for mood struggles, addictive patterns, or the loneliness that follows big life changes.

She draws on client-centred ways of working, which place the person and their experience at the heart of sessions. That means listening closely, reflecting what’s happening for you, and helping you make choices that feel right. She also uses existential ideas to look at meaning, responsibility and the choices that shape a life.

Kat has three years of experience and holds BACP accreditation, which is shown as BACP. Her practice is based in the United Kingdom and she works in English and Polish. She does not take international clients for remote work at this time.

In sessions she generally focuses on practical, everyday concerns. These include coping with anxiety and depression, navigating relationship and intimacy issues, managing stress and burnout, and dealing with loss or life transitions. She also supports people facing identity and neurodiversity topics such as autism and ADHD.

Her style is straightforward and person-focused. Clients can expect a collaborative conversation that explores feelings, behaviours and values. The aim is clearer thinking and more manageable steps forward, rather than quick fixes.

How Kat's approaches translate to online therapy

Client-centred work puts the person's experience first. In practice this means the counsellor listens carefully, reflects what they hear, and helps the client decide what feels most helpful. This approach supports concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress and relationship difficulties.

Existential therapy looks at meaning, choice and responsibility. It helps people facing life transitions, grief, or questions about identity and direction by encouraging honest reflection and practical decision-making.

Finding the right way of working is part of the therapeutic process. The counsellor will talk with each person about goals, what matters to them, and how they prefer to work. Together they agree on an approach that fits the person's needs and pace.

Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so please confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow more flexible scheduling. It also permits different types of check-ins, such as shorter conversations when time is limited, or longer reflective sessions when more space is needed.
