About Karolina
Karolina Callaghan is a counsellor working within a humanistic, client-centred way. She brings three years of therapeutic experience and a postgraduate diploma in Humanistic Psychotherapy and Counselling from the University of Brighton. Karolina values a collaborative style built on compassion, respect and empathy.
She believes each person is the expert on their life and creates a relationship where people can talk about what matters to them. Sessions typically involve exploring feelings, noticing patterns of coping, and gently testing out new choices. Karolina aims to help people see options they may not have noticed before.
Before training as a counsellor she spent around a decade working in health and social care, including roles in the NHS and private settings. During her diploma training she worked as a therapist in a hospice, supporting people with grief and loss. She has also volunteered with a low-cost counselling charity assisting people with depression, anxiety and low self-esteem.
Karolina works with a wide range of concerns. These include stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy-related issues, self-esteem, grief and trauma. Additional areas she lists include workplace issues, caregiver stress, life purpose and money and financial issues.
She is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which she holds as BACP. Sessions are offered in English and Czech and take place in the United Kingdom.

How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and creating a non-judgemental relationship. The counsellor reflects what you say, helps you clarify feelings, and supports you as you notice your own choices. This approach can help with anxiety, low mood, self-esteem and life transitions.Existential Therapy looks at meaning, values and the big questions people face. It helps when life feels empty or confusing, or when someone is rethinking purpose, career or relationships. Conversations can centre on choices, responsibility and what matters to you.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Karolina will discuss goals and preferences with you and adapt sessions to what feels most useful. She treats therapy as a collaborative process and checks in about how things are going as therapy progresses.
Practical benefits of online therapy can include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. If you want to proceed, please confirm current session format options before booking, since formats are not specified here.
