About Karolina
Karolina Callaghan is a humanistic counsellor and therapist who brings three years of clinical practice to her work. She uses a compassionate, respectful style and aims to work alongside people as they talk through difficult feelings.
Karolina is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and holds a postgraduate diploma in Humanistic Psychotherapy and Counselling from the University of Brighton. Her approach treats the client as the expert on their own life.
Background and approach
She offers a relational space where people can bring whatever is on their mind. Sessions focus on increasing awareness of what matters and spotting where coping strategies are no longer helpful. Karolina has prior experience in health and social care, including roles within the NHS and personal services.
During training she worked as a therapist in a hospice, supporting people with grief and loss, and she volunteered with a low-cost counselling charity supporting depression, anxiety and low self-esteem. She commonly helps people facing stress, anxiety and depression, and those struggling with relationship or intimacy-related issues.
Other areas she works with include eating and food-related concerns, career questions, caregiver stress, and coping with life changes. Sessions are offered in English and Czech. Karolina adapts her work to each individual and focuses on building understanding, choice and authenticity in the therapy space.
How humanistic and existential approaches work online
Karolina uses client-centred work that focuses on the person in front of her. This approach means listening without judgement, reflecting what she hears and helping people name their feelings. It is useful for issues like anxiety, low self-esteem and life transitions.She also draws on existential therapy, which looks at questions of meaning, choice and responsibility. That approach helps when people feel empty, stuck or are facing major life changes and decisions.
Finding the right method is part of the process and Karolina treats it as a team effort. She will talk with you about your goals and preferences and try different ways of working to see what fits best. The plan can change as you learn more about what helps.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow a face-to-face feel, phone work can suit quieter or low-bandwidth situations, live chat can be useful for short check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options aim to make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or other responsibilities.
