About Karina
Karina Kaminski is an NCPS counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain and anger. She also supports people dealing with parenting pressures, low self-esteem and life changes.
Karina adapts conversation and practical techniques to what each person needs. She mixes client-centred listening with cognitive behavioural ideas and mindfulness exercises. Sessions are interactive and focus on clear steps a person can try between meetings.
She has worked with people affected by bereavement, emotional and domestic abuse, panic attacks and trauma. Karina also has experience supporting issues around adoption and foster care, attachment difficulties and caregiving stress. She uses straightforward language and avoids diagnostic labels in everyday talk.
In sessions she aims to help people notice patterns, test different ways of responding, and build small skills for handling strong feelings. That can mean practising grounding or breathing, identifying unhelpful thought habits, or setting short achievable goals to reduce tension at home or work.
Karina offers therapy in English and works from a practical problem-solving stance when needed. Her registration is NCPS. People are encouraged to use the site's matching process to book an introductory conversation and to confirm current session options before booking.
How sessions work
How Karina uses CBT and mindfulness online
Karina draws on cognitive behavioural therapy to identify thinking patterns that feed anger and stress. That involves noticing triggers, testing unhelpful thoughts, and trying small behavioural experiments to change reactions. CBT is useful for workplace tension, rumination and panic-type responses.She also uses mindfulness techniques to help people stay calmer when feelings rise. Mindfulness here means simple grounding practices and short awareness exercises that reduce overwhelm and make it easier to choose responses rather than react. These methods can help with grief, anxiety and ongoing irritability.
Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the work. Karina will collaborate with each person to decide whether CBT, mindfulness or a client-centred conversation is the best fit for their goals and preferences. She checks in and adjusts the plan as progress is made.
Please confirm the specific session formats available before you book, as the biography does not list them. The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting meetings into a busy day, easier access when travel is difficult, and shorter check-ins that work around work breaks. Ask about format options during the matching process so you can pick what suits your routine.
