About Karina
Karina Kaminski is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has three years' experience working in the United Kingdom. She helps people with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship difficulties and anger, along with parenting strain and compassion fatigue.
Karina uses a mix of practical talking therapies. She draws on client-centred listening, cognitive behavioural ideas and mindfulness to help people notice patterns and try different responses. Sessions aim to be interactive and straightforward, focusing on small, workable steps that fit into daily life.
Her background includes supporting people who have experienced bereavement, emotional and domestic abuse, panic attacks and trauma. She has also worked with young adults on social anxiety and low self-esteem. Those experiences shape how she approaches conversations about control, guilt and shame.
In therapy she keeps the focus on what a person wants to change. She listens, reflects what she hears and works with the client to set realistic goals. That might mean learning techniques to manage strong feelings, changing unhelpful thinking habits or practising mindfulness to reduce reactivity.
Karina describes her style as caring and non-judgemental. She avoids labels and aims to treat each person with respect. If someone wants to explore their anger, she supports them in understanding triggers and finding practical ways to respond differently.
How her approaches translate to online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters most to the client. It helps people clarify their own goals and decide what to change. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It teaches steps and exercises to reduce unhelpful thinking and manage strong reactions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Karina will discuss different methods and help decide which suits a person's situation and preferences. The plan is collaborative - she listens to what a client wants and adapts techniques to fit those aims.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. When formats are agreed, sessions aim to be practical, with exercises and reflections that can be used between meetings.
