About Edyta

Edyta Johnston is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with eight years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, eating and sleeping problems, relationship and intimacy concerns, ADHD, and career or life-change struggles. Sessions are offered in English and Polish.

She starts by helping clients notice where they are now. That usually means simple observation of thoughts, feelings and behaviours. From there she works with practical steps to change patterns that cause distress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is one tool she uses to identify unhelpful thought habits and test different responses.

Edyta places importance on the therapeutic relationship. She aims to build trust so people can be honest about difficult feelings and memories. Attachment-based ideas inform how she looks at patterns in relationships and closeness.

Her style also draws on client-centred principles, which means listening and following what matters most to the person in front of her. Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques and Jungian ideas may appear where they fit the person’s goals, for example when learning emotional regulation or exploring meaning.

People often come with concerns such as abandonment, body image, caregiver stress, codependency, dissociation, divorce and immigration problems. Edyta helps them map the specific problems and choose concrete steps to feel more able to cope.

Therapy begins with a short matching questionnaire and a scheduled first session. The service uses a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, and cost varies with location.

How her approaches are used in online sessions

Online sessions can focus on practical skills and real-time problem solving. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot unhelpful thoughts, test them and try new behaviours to reduce anxiety or low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in relationships and closeness to help people change how they relate to others. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises listening and following the client’s priorities so sessions address what matters most to them.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist treats this as a collaborative process and will discuss what fits the client’s needs, goals and preferences. The plan can change as progress is made and new issues come up.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also allow people to choose quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera if that helps them engage more comfortably.
