About Iwona
Iwona Dreksler offers gentle, person-focused counselling grounded in attachment and client-centred approaches. She creates a warm, non-judgemental space where people can talk openly about stress, anxiety, relationship troubles and money or financial worries. Iwona works with both adults and adolescents and speaks English and Polish.
She holds an Advanced Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and is a BACP member. Over six years she has combined private practice with roles as a bereavement counsellor for a charity and a mental health support worker. That mix gives her everyday experience with grief, trauma, depression, low self-esteem and major life transitions.
Iwona draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current feelings and patterns. She also uses elements of cognitive behavioural therapy to help people notice and shift unhelpful thoughts. Mindfulness and solution-focused techniques are used to build coping skills and set manageable goals.
Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person. Iwona aims to help clients feel clearer about their choices and more able to cope with change. She can support people dealing with parenting strains, sleep or eating difficulties, ADHD-related challenges, and compassion fatigue.
International clients are accepted and she works in English and Polish. Prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire to begin and then schedule sessions according to availability. The subscription for sessions can be cancelled at any time.
Approaches that suit online counselling
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships affect current feelings and behaviour; online sessions can be used to reflect on patterns and try different responses. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and supporting people to find their own answers, which can be effective in conversational video or phone sessions. Cognitive behavioural approaches involve spotting unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavioural changes, a good fit for set tasks and short between-session practice.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs and preferences. That decision is revisited as therapy continues so the way of working can change if something else would help more.
The therapist's profile does not list specific session formats, so please confirm what is currently offered when you book. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, reduce travel time and allow brief check-ins when that suits. It also lets people use approaches like CBT worksheets or mindfulness exercises between meetings to build progress into everyday life.
