Compassionate, practical emotional support
About Magdalena
Magdalena Georgoulis-Szulc offers calm, down-to-earth support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood or loss. She writes simply and listens closely to help people name what they are feeling and find small, practical steps forward. Magdalena speaks English and Polish and draws on her own experience of depression and grief to bring empathy to sessions.
She trained through four years of academic study and clinical placements before practising for three years.
Background and approach
Magdalena is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, which she uses as a professional reference point. In sessions she works alongside each person to make sense of difficult emotions. Conversations focus on what feels most urgent and useful right now, with attention to patterns that keep problems going.
She aims to make therapy feel manageable and relevant to day-to-day life. Magdalena pays particular attention to issues around addiction, self-harm and isolation, as well as distress linked to cancer and chronic illness. She also supports people dealing with low self-esteem, emptiness and difficulties around self-love.
Practical formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. People start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions according to her availability.

How evidence-based approaches work online
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are used to help people manage symptoms and change unhelpful patterns. One common approach focuses on recognising thinking and behaviour patterns that keep problems going, and replacing them with small, practical steps that reduce stress and low mood. This helps with anxiety, depression and motivation issues.Another helpful method looks at emotions and relationships with oneself, supporting people to process grief, shame or emptiness. It concentrates on how feelings show up day to day and on building kinder ways of relating to oneself, which can aid recovery from self-harm and improve self-esteem.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and then agree on techniques to try. This is a collaborative process and can change as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, which make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that helps. Phone sessions use less data and can fit into a short break. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins and moments when writing feels easier. These options help people attend sessions around work, family or treatment commitments and make follow-up between meetings more practical.
