About Karina
Karina Kaminski is a counsellor who uses a person-centred approach to help people manage stress and anxiety. She works in plain language and listens closely to what each person wants to change. Karina aims to create a warm, respectful space where people can talk without judgement.
She combines Client-Centred Therapy with practical tools from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and mindfulness practices. This blend helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, try small behaviour changes, and learn calming skills for panic or ongoing worry.
Background and approach
Sessions are shaped around the goals the person brings to therapy. Karina has three years of experience working with a wide range of concerns. These include depression, grief, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, and anger.
She also supports people coping with life changes and those experiencing compassion fatigue. Her additional areas of focus include adoption and foster care matters, attachment concerns, body image, caregiver stress, and trauma-related difficulties such as panic attacks and post-traumatic stress. She avoids labels and instead works on practical steps that make daily life easier.
People can expect an interactive, caring style in sessions. Karina helps set achievable goals and reviews progress regularly. She encourages people to try small experiments between sessions and to build skills that fit their everyday routines.
How therapy approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on treating the person with respect and listening carefully. The counsellor follows the person’s priorities and helps them talk through what matters most and set clear goals. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, teaches simple ways to notice unhelpful thoughts and test small changes in behaviour. It can be useful for anxiety, panic and low mood by breaking problems into manageable steps.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss different ways of working and choose methods together based on the person’s problems, goals and preferences. This collaborative process helps tailor sessions to what actually helps in day-to-day life.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that suits. Phone sessions can fit a lunch break or be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging can be useful for shorter check-ins or when people prefer writing. These options make it simpler to keep therapy going around work, family and other commitments.
