About Magdalena

Magdalena Seremak-Kaczmarczyk is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of experience. She works with common pressures such as stress and anxiety, and with longer-term problems including addiction, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. Magdalena also supports people dealing with relationship and family strain, parenting stresses, anger and career-related change.

She trained at the University of Bolton where she completed an MSc in Counselling and Positive Psychology. Before qualifying she spent six years volunteering in a community counselling service, supporting people through job loss, financial breakdown, housing instability and serious trauma. That background shapes how she listens and responds in sessions.

Magdalena uses a mix of practical talking approaches. She focuses on how subconscious patterns affect day-to-day behaviour, and works on changing those patterns so problems feel more manageable. Her work draws on person-centred ideas, cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness. She also uses elements of motivational interviewing and psychodynamic thinking to understand recurring difficulties.

Sessions aim to let people name the specific behaviours and thoughts that get in the way. She offers techniques to reduce reactivity, manage cravings, and rethink unhelpful beliefs. Mindfulness is used to increase awareness of emotional triggers and build steadier responses.

Magdalena speaks English and Polish. She has experience supporting people affected by addiction, homelessness and trafficking, and with varied cultural backgrounds. People who want straightforward, conversational therapy that focuses on practical change often find her approach clear and direct.

How her approaches work in online sessions

Magdalena combines person-centred counselling with cognitive behavioural therapy and mindfulness in practical ways. Person-centred work focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters, which helps people feel heard and begin to name patterns. Cognitive behavioural techniques look at thoughts and behaviours and introduce experiments to test unhelpful beliefs. Mindfulness practice builds awareness of emotional triggers and supports calmer reactions to anger and stress.

Choosing the best approach is collaborative. Magdalena will discuss what feels most useful for the client's goals and day-to-day life, and adjust methods as the work progresses. That means the plan can change if something isn’t helping or if new priorities emerge.

The details of online sessions should be confirmed before booking, because the therapist's biography does not list specific formats. When arranged, online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work and family routines, reduce travel time, and offer shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people practise skills where they need them most, for example testing mindfulness at home or working through a difficult conversation after a session.
