About Malwina
Malwina Matysek is a counsellor who uses a blend of cognitive and acceptance-based approaches to help people manage anxiety and stress. She holds BACP accreditation, and she draws on several evidence-informed methods to meet each person where they are. Her tone is practical and encouraging, and she aims to make the first steps feel manageable for worried clients.
She focuses on everyday struggles such as anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and addiction.
Background and approach
She also supports people coping with relationship and intimacy concerns, low self-esteem, anger, sleep and eating problems, and career pressures. Attention to parenting strain, compassion fatigue and ADHD are also part of her work. In sessions she treats the client as the expert on their own life and uses that as the starting point.
Conversations are collaborative and goal-focused, with practical exercises when they help. She helps people notice what matters to them and take small steps aligned with those values. Malwina combines approaches such as cognitive behavioural techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-informed perspectives and elements of dialectical work.
That mixture lets her adjust to different situations and needs. She offers therapy in English and Polish for people in the United Kingdom and internationally. Her practice uses remote formats including video calls, phone, live chat and text-based messaging.
Sessions are provided through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to therapist availability.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice what truly matters to them and take small, meaningful steps even when feelings are uncomfortable. It is useful for anxiety, stress and life changes where a values-based direction helps guide action.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, low mood, sleep problems and many day-to-day difficulties.
Finding the right way of working is part of the process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and then use one or more approaches to suit the client’s needs. That collaboration helps tailor exercises and pacing so they fit the person’s life and goals.
Online sessions can be done by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is good for in-depth sessions that include visual cues, phone works well when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed, live chat suits shorter exchanges and messaging can help people who prefer written reflection. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, family and travel.
