Kat Januchowska
Compassionate, practical support for feeling stuck
About Kat
Kat Januchowska offers calm, straightforward support for people feeling overwhelmed or stuck. She welcomes conversations about anxiety, low mood, difficult life changes and concerns about relationships. Kat aims to help individuals find clearer ways forward through steady, practical conversation and reflection.
She works from a client-centred stance, so sessions focus on what matters most to the person in front of her. That means listening closely, following the client’s pace, and helping them name the patterns that cause distress.
Background and approach
She also draws on existential ideas to help people consider meaning, choice and personal values when life feels confusing. Kat has three years of professional experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
She uses talk-based work to address a wide range of concerns including stress, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, addiction, parenting strain and issues around identity and intimacy. Practical matters such as coping skills, communication, managing strong emotions and navigating life transitions are common session topics.
Kat also offers support around more specific areas like ADHD, bipolar challenges, chronic illness and caregiver stress. Sessions are offered in English and Polish. People who choose Kat can expect a direct but compassionate approach.
She aims to help clients notice unhelpful patterns, try small changes and build more reliable ways of managing day-to-day life.

How Kat's approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy centres the person in the room. The therapist listens with interest, follows what the client brings, and helps them name feelings and choices. This approach supports people dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship stresses and self-esteem struggles.Existential Therapy looks at meaning, responsibility and personal values. It helps when life feels empty or confusing, or when someone is facing big decisions and wants clearer direction. Working in this way can help people explore purpose, commitment and what matters to them most.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kat will discuss goals and preferences together and adapt methods as needed. The process is collaborative - clients and therapist decide what feels most helpful as sessions progress.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful for a full conversation and visual connection. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit a quick check-in. Chat or messaging can suit shorter updates or people who prefer to write. These options make it easier to arrange therapy around work, family and daily life while keeping therapy practical and flexible.
