Zuzanna Horowska
Calm, relational counselling for life changes
About Zuzanna
Zuzanna Horowska is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom. She brings four years of clinical experience to conversations about stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and self-esteem. Zuzanna aims to help people who feel stuck by offering steady, down-to-earth support and practical tools for everyday life.
Her way of working is relational and humanistic. She pays attention to thoughts, feelings and bodily experience, and to how past events can shape present behaviour.
Background and approach
Zuzanna uses Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) alongside other approaches to help with trauma-related symptoms and overwhelming memories. Sessions are conversational and tailored to each person. She may introduce exercises, short tasks between sessions, or gentle body-focused techniques when they seem helpful.
The focus is on building clearer self-understanding and new ways of relating to others. People come to Zuzanna for help with panic attacks, communication problems, feelings of emptiness, and coping with life changes such as separation or grief. She also supports those facing caregiver stress, cancer-related challenges, and difficulties around commitment or codependency.
Her background includes work with charities and NHS-linked services, giving experience with a range of complex situations. Zuzanna aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where someone can speak honestly and gradually change patterns that no longer serve them.

Sessions & fees
Using EMDR and relational approaches online
Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is offered as a way to process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity. The method uses guided attention and bilateral stimulation to help a person revisit upsetting experiences with less overwhelm, which can be helpful for trauma, panic and intrusive memories.Alongside EMDR, the therapist uses a relational, humanistic stance that focuses on feelings, bodily experience and how past relationships affect current patterns. This style involves talking, noticing bodily responses and trying short exercises together to build awareness and new ways of relating.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist discusses goals and preferences, and decides collaboratively which methods to try. It is common to blend conversational, body-focused and EMDR techniques over time based on what is helping.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier when video is not possible. Live chat or messaging can work for brief check-ins, written reflection or when a quieter format is preferred. These options aim to make therapy flexible and easier to fit into daily life.
