Malwina Matysek
Practical, collaborative therapy for life’s challenges
About Malwina
Malwina Matysek is a counsellor who draws on cognitive and acceptance-based methods to help people facing stress, anxiety and depression. She works in English and Polish and holds BACP registration. Malwina takes a practical, down-to-earth approach so people can feel understood and begin to make small changes that matter.
She uses a blend of cognitive behavioural ideas and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help untangle overwhelming thoughts and build useful habits.
Background and approach
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy skills are introduced when emotions feel intense and Attachment-Based ideas are used to understand difficult patterns in relationships. The approach is tailored to each person’s needs rather than following one rigid method. Malwina has four years of practice supporting people with trauma and abuse, grief, addictions and intimacy-related concerns.
She also helps with sleep and eating issues, parenting strain, career stress and compassion fatigue. Other areas she addresses include ADHD, self-esteem, anger and communication difficulties. Sessions can look like practical problem-solving, learning new coping skills, or slower reflective work about past experiences.
The aim is to help people notice what matters to them and take steps that fit their life. She believes clients bring strengths and that therapy is a collaborative process. People can join from the United Kingdom or internationally.
Malwina offers a mix of short-term focused work and longer-term support depending on what a client wants to achieve.

Online approaches that fit your life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing painful thoughts without getting stuck and identifying personal values to guide small meaningful steps. It can help when worry or low mood stop someone doing things that matter to them.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating-related concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then decide together which methods to try. This collaborative process means therapy can be adjusted over time as needs shift.
Online sessions are offered by registered or accredited professionals using video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are good when visual contact helps the work. Phone sessions can be easier if bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging fits quick check-ins or people who prefer typing. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, family and travel while keeping therapy consistent and flexible.
