About Agnieszka
Agnieszka Maj is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years' experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, relationship difficulties and the effects of trauma and abuse. Sessions are offered in English and Polish.
Agnieszka draws on humanistic and psychodynamic ideas to listen closely to each person's story. She aims to help people notice patterns that keep them stuck, such as people-pleasing, difficulty saying no, or losing a sense of self in relationships. Conversations focus on practical steps as well as on understanding feelings and past experiences.
She uses client-centred skills to reflect what a person is feeling and thinking. Solution-focused techniques are used when a client wants clear, short-term goals and small, achievable changes. Jungian and existential ideas are sometimes brought in to look at meaning, identity and life choices.
Agnieszka has worked with people facing gender identity questions, relationship harm and domestic violence, addiction, and issues around sexuality including BDSM and kink. She also supports people dealing with shame, isolation, body image concerns and codependency patterns.
Sessions aim to build confidence and help people find a truer sense of self. The first meetings typically clarify priorities and plan next steps together. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange an initial appointment.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to remote sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what a person says. Online sessions using this approach let the counsellor mirror emotions and clarify thoughts so clients feel heard and understood. Solution-Focused Therapy looks for small, practical changes and clear goals. In remote work this can mean short, actionable steps between meetings to test what helps and what does not.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss different methods with the client and decide together which fit best for the issues and goals brought to sessions. This is a collaborative process that can change as needs evolve.
Specific session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also let people choose whether to be on camera or not, depending on what helps them engage. Registered or accredited professionals will explain practical details when arranging the first appointment.
