Patrycja Czyszczon, BACP

Patrycja Czyszczon is a warm and practical therapist based in the United Kingdom who helps adults navigate anxiety, stress, grief, relationship difficulties, low mood, and life transitions. She combines a person-centred way of working with evidence-informed Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to offer both empathetic listening and practical tools that support change and improved coping.

Her training includes a Level 5 Diploma in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and a Level 5 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling, along with certificates in counselling skills and counselling concepts. She is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) - the UK professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists - and she continues to develop her practice through regular continuing professional development workshops.

Patrycja’s counselling journey began with volunteering roles at Age UK and Trafford Carers, where she supported people facing grief, bereavement, caregiver stress, anxiety, and depression. In private practice she works with adults from diverse cultural backgrounds and addresses a wide range of concerns including self-esteem, anger, sleep difficulties, career change, family issues, and panic-related problems. Although she is fluent in English and Polish, she offers sessions exclusively in English to ensure clear communication.

Patrycja aims to create a non-judgemental, respectful space where people can explore their thoughts at their own pace and build resilience. She encourages collaboration, helping each person identify the approaches and practical steps that fit their goals and circumstances.

Person-centred and CBT support through online sessions

Patrycja draws on Client-Centred Therapy to offer a supportive, empathetic environment where people are listened to and treated with respect. This approach focuses on understanding the person’s experience and helping them find their own solutions, which can be useful for issues like low self-esteem, life transitions, and relationship concerns.

She also integrates Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), which uses practical strategies to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. CBT is often helpful for anxiety, panic, depression, stress, and sleep difficulties because it teaches tools that can be applied between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Patrycja works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting the pace and focus as therapy progresses. Registered professionals and therapists often combine approaches in this way to tailor support.

Online therapy offers flexible access to care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, family, or caregiving responsibilities and allow people to engage from different locations while keeping the focus on progress and practical outcomes.
