About Drazenka
Drazenka Bjelobaba is a BACP counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction and relationship difficulties. She also supports people handling grief, trauma, low self-esteem and money and financial issues. Sessions are offered in English, Bosnian, Croatian and Serbian to match different needs.
She describes a person-centred style where the client sets the pace and topics. That means conversations follow what matters to the person in the room. Drazenka aims to listen without judgement and to make space for difficult feelings while people work out next steps.
Her practice draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used when practical steps or changes in thinking are helpful. Trauma-focused approaches guide work with painful memories and dissociation when those issues come up.
Across 16 years of practice she has worked with concerns such as addiction, eating and sleeping problems, parenting strain, chronic illness, and coping after separation. She also supports people with intimacy, commitment and communication difficulties, and those processing abandonment or blended family stress.
Drazenka invites clients to take the first step at a pace that feels safe. She offers a warm, steady presence and practical ways to try out different coping strategies between sessions. If someone wants to explore their priorities, she will help them shape a plan together.
How counselling approaches translate to online work
Attachment-based work focuses on patterns from past relationships and how they affect current feelings and reactions. Online sessions can let people talk about these patterns, notice triggers and try new ways of relating in conversation with the counsellor.Client-centred counselling keeps the client's concerns at the heart of each session. The counsellor follows what the person brings, offering reflective listening and support to help them find their own solutions and priorities.
Cognitive behavioural techniques are practical and often involve experiments between sessions. Online appointments can be used to set small tasks, discuss what happened and adjust plans for going forward.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The counsellor will discuss options and tailor the work to the client's needs, goals and comfort level rather than imposing a single method. Clients and the counsellor decide together what to try and how to pace the work.
Session formats are not specified here, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also supports multilingual conversations for those who prefer English, Bosnian, Croatian or Serbian.
