You're someone who thinks carefully about things. You can see your own patterns, at least partially — you know something is getting in the way, even if you can't quite name it yet. Maybe it shows up in your relationships, a recurring sense of not-quite-enough, or a feeling that the life you've built doesn't fully feel like yours.
You might carry the weight of family expectations, be navigating the gap between two cultures, or be a woman quietly re-examining the story you were handed. Whatever brings you here, you're not looking to be fixed. You're looking to understand.

It encourages you to look within, explore your thoughts and emotions, and gain insight into their motivations, values, and beliefs. By knowing yourself, you can better understand your strengths and weaknesses, make more informed choices, and live a more authentic and fulfilling life.

Whatever has brought you here, you’re already taking a step towards understanding yourself more deeply. You may feel things intensely and reflect a lot, but still find it hard to make sense of what’s happening right now. You may notice yourself going round in familiar patterns that leave you feeling stuck, ashamed, or disconnected from others and from yourself. Maybe you’re questioning aspects of identity, desire, sex and intimacy, and wanting more clarity, confidence, and ease in how you show up. At heart, you want to feel more alive, more connected with intuition, more at home in yourself, in your body, and in your relationships.

In psychotherapy there is an opportunity to get to know yourself in depth and discover new ways of living your life. Often we have repetitive patterns and ways of thinking that can for instance cause suffering, frustration, anxiety and sadness in our life. Despite our best efforts to decide to behave and relate differently, we drift back to our old ways of being and behaving. In psychotherapy we will work at getting to know your unconscious inner life. A lot of feelings and thoughts we have are not conscious and psychotherapy gives you the opportunity to reflect and try out new ways when you feel change is needed.

I’m Kasia (she/her), a qualified therapist offering integrative counselling in Walthamstow (E17) and online.
Before training, I worked in fast-moving charity and corporate sectors, learning about pressure, burnout, and the quiet cost of holding everything together. That experience shapes my work and how I understand coping in different environments.
My approach is rooted in curiosity and care, and in the belief that healing happens through relationship and genuine connection. I offer an inclusive, respectful space to explore what feels vulnerable, uncertain, or unseen, with awareness of identity, belonging, and difference.

You may look like you're coping on the outside — but inside, you're overwhelmed, stuck, or no longer quite yourself. Maybe you're in a life or career transition. Maybe a relationship has left you questioning who you are. Maybe you're a woman carrying more than anyone around you realises.
I work with women navigating exactly this: life transitions, relational trauma, identity loss, grief, and burnout. Together, we make sense of what's happening, help you reconnect with who you are underneath it all, and find a way forward with clarity and confidence.
Faith-sensitive support is available, if that matters to you.

Experienced, fully-registered therapist with practices in Hackney and Marylebone.
People come to me for many reasons – depression, anxiety, addictive or compulsive behaviour, trauma, loss, family issues, relationship problems. Sometimes it's to navigate a life stage or make sense of one particular event or crisis; sometimes clients just can't seem to live life as they want to, or sometimes they don't know what they need.
My previous career was the arts and media so I often see clients with an interest in developing or exploring their creativity in some way.

It can be hard to live in this world sometimes. Early experiences, uncertainty, loss, rejection, trauma, oppression and inequality can impact us in ways that are both subtle and obvious. Family dynamics and relationships with friends, partners and colleagues can be complex.
Therapy can offer a transformative space where experiences can be understood, where difficult and painful feelings can be explored, and where new ways of doing and being can be discovered.

Women's Issues Counsellors
How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can women prepare for therapy?
Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.
How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realised.
How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?
Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
