About Volha

Volha Stasiuliene is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with nine years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and trauma, and also supports those dealing with addictions, grief and sleep or eating concerns. Volha speaks English and Russian and follows the BACP professional standards.

Volha describes therapy as a chance to talk through what feels overwhelming. She listens to how specific events or ongoing patterns affect daily life. Sessions focus on clear, practical steps as well as time to reflect on feelings and relationships.

Her background includes a mix of client-centred, cognitive-behavioural and psychodynamic ways of working. That means conversations can cover current coping skills, thought patterns that make things harder, and past experiences that shape reactions now. She draws on dialectical behaviour ideas for emotional regulation when that is helpful.

People who come with codependency patterns - such as people-pleasing, trouble saying no, or losing themselves in another person - will find direct discussion of boundaries and communication. Volha helps people notice how old habits keep repeating and practices new ways of responding.

Sessions tend to be conversational and interactive. Expect a mix of talking, practical exercises and reflection. The emphasis is on steady change rather than quick fixes.

To start, prospective clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. The therapist uses a subscription model for payment that can be cancelled at any time, with costs varying by location.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the person. It helps with feeling understood and clarifying what you want to change. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and actions that keep problems going and uses practical exercises to alter them; it is often used for anxiety, low mood and unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing strong emotions and improving control when feelings feel overwhelming.

Finding the right approach is usually a shared process. The therapist will discuss what feels most useful first and adjust over time based on the client's needs and goals. This collaboration helps decide whether more skills work, reflective exploration or a mixture will be most helpful.

The specific session formats are not stated in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people choose online sessions because they can fit therapy into work breaks, avoid travel time and pick quieter surroundings when possible. Other practical benefits include shorter check-ins when needed and the ability to use worksheets or exercises during a session. Registered and accredited professionals generally aim to make sessions fit everyday life while focusing on the issues the client brings.
