About Malwina
Malwina Matysek is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and anger. Sessions are offered in English and Polish and she accepts international clients.
She describes her work as integrative, drawing on practical approaches such as cognitive behavioural therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy. In conversation she helps people notice what matters to them and tries to make each step straightforward and usable in everyday life. That may mean learning small skills to manage tension or trying different ways of thinking about difficult situations.
Malwina often focuses on coping strategies for overwhelming feelings and on repairing everyday routines like sleep and eating. She also supports people working through career stress, parenting strain, and compassion fatigue. Where relationships are a source of difficulty, she helps people talk through communication and commitment concerns.
Her style is client-centred, so sessions aim to follow what the person brings rather than imposing a fixed plan. Techniques from dialectical behaviour therapy and attachment-based work are used when they suit a person's goals. She encourages practical experiments between sessions so insights turn into changes in daily life.
To begin, people complete a short questionnaire and then book a first session. Malwina uses that first meeting to agree on priorities and to plan straightforward next steps.
How her approaches translate to remote sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that fit their values. It is useful when stress or anger leads to avoidance or feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical techniques to change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, which can help with anxiety, low mood and sleep problems. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early connection styles affect present reactions; it can help where relationship and intimacy issues are a concern.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will talk with the client about goals, test a few techniques, and agree on what feels most helpful. That collaborative process makes it easier to pick methods that fit the person's life and what they want to change.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work or caregiving, allow shorter check-ins when that suits a routine, and reduce travel time. Some approaches lend themselves to practical homework and short between-session tasks, which translate well to remote work with a counsellor. Registered or accredited professionals including this counsellor will aim to adapt exercises so they work through the chosen session format.
