About Ewa
Ewa Szerlich is a counsellor who aims to help people feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stress or life changes. She offers a calm, warm style and focuses on helping clients name what feels hard and try practical ways to feel steadier. Sessions are available in English and Polish and run for 45 minutes by video call on the platform.
Ewa draws on her own life experience alongside formal study to shape her approach.
Background and approach
She holds a first-class Bachelor of Arts degree in Counselling and Therapeutic Practice from the University of South Wales and a Level 3 Diploma in Social Sciences. She also has a Certificate in working with trauma and the living body and training in bereavement counselling. In sessions she combines person-centred listening with practical tools from cognitive behavioural work and mindfulness.
That means clients can expect open conversation alongside simple exercises to manage thoughts, mood and anxious reactions. She also uses emotionally-focused ideas to look at how relationships affect feelings. Ewa has worked as a counsellor for Mind Monmouthshire and Mind Neath Port Talbot and currently practices at Basecamp, Chepstow.
Her two years of experience include supporting people with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, sleep and eating concerns, and issues around self-esteem and parenting. She takes a collaborative approach to setting goals so sessions match what each person needs. Some of her specialist interests include attachment and abandonment, control and communication problems, and midlife or life-purpose questions.
Her practice also explores breathwork and inner-critic work when appropriate. Clients who choose to work with Ewa start by completing a short questionnaire to help match them to a therapist. From there they can schedule sessions and agree how to best use the 45 minutes together.
Approaches that suit online counselling
Ewa often draws on client-centred work which focuses on listening, building trust and following the person’s own priorities. This approach helps when someone needs space to make sense of feelings and decide what matters to them.She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, to identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behaviour changes. CBT can be useful for panic, anxiety and mood concerns because it gives clear steps to practise between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Ewa treats planning as a shared task and will discuss goals, preferences and what feels helpful. She adapts methods so they match each person’s needs rather than imposing one fixed style.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls let people use visual cues and a fuller conversation, phone sessions can be simpler if bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging suit short check-ins or times when typing feels easier. These options offer flexibility for people balancing work, family or travel while keeping therapy consistent and accessible.
