About me
I’m Mila, a qualified pluralistic counsellor and psychotherapist, who can either provide sessions in English or Polish languages. In my practice, I employ a diverse range of approaches to assist you in overcoming your challenges. The counselling approach chosen will be tailored to your individual needs and preferences, as ‘everyone requires different things at different stages of therapy.
I will collaborate with you to understand what matters to you most. We will look together at what your values and beliefs are and what changes you would like to make. Together we will agree on achievable goals for therapy and explore ways of improving your well-being.
As you are the expert in your own life, I will listen to your feedback and ensure that all decisions around a choice of therapy and interventions used are shared and best suited to your personal circumstances. I will also offer you my commitment, knowledge, and lifelong experience. Most importantly, I will create a safe and confidential environment where you are listened to and heard fully, leaving you feeling at ease and able to explore your issues freely without fear of judgment.

Further information
I currently work as a bereavement counsellor with the NHS, however, I have also worked with clients coming to see me for different reasons, both short and longer-term issues, such as: bereavement, grief, loss, stress, anxiety, depression, burnouts, identity problems, relationships/or family issues, low self-esteem, cultural differences, etc.
One of the advantages of pluralism is that as a therapist I can incorporate a collection of research-informed methods and interventions from my acquired toolkit, into our collaborative work.
This way of working may be useful to you, as by the end of therapy, you will develop greater self-awareness and confidence to take proactive steps forward on your own, becoming your own future therapist!
