About Malwina
Malwina Matysek is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of experience. She works with adults who struggle with stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, parenting pressures and anger. Sessions are conversational and practical, aiming to help clients slow down when feelings feel overwhelming and find clearer ways to respond.
She believes clients know themselves best and brings an integrative approach to therapy. That means she uses a mix of methods such as cognitive behavioural techniques, mindfulness, and attachment-informed work. In practice this looks like helping people notice unhelpful thought patterns, try small behavioural experiments, and build steadier emotional responses.
Malwina often focuses on everyday problems that pile up into larger strain - sleep disruption, low self-esteem, workplace stress, or conflict with people close to you. She also works with more complex histories such as trauma, abandonment or long-term caregiving stress. Sessions include practical strategies and space to talk through how past patterns influence current reactions.
Her way of working is collaborative. She listens for what matters most to each person and then proposes straightforward tools to test between sessions. Progress is measured by whether new habits make daily life easier, not by labels or quick fixes.
Sessions are offered in English and Polish, and international clients are accepted. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first session through the online system.
How sessions work
How her main approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and make room for what matters. It uses simple exercises to identify values and small actions that move life in a chosen direction. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on thoughts, feelings and behaviours that maintain problems; it offers practical experiments and homework to test new ways of reacting.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. That choice is revisited as sessions progress, so the plan can change if something feels unhelpful or doesn’t fit.
Practical benefits of working online include fitting therapy around work or family commitments and keeping sessions consistent when travel is difficult. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to have shorter check-ins, avoid long commutes and maintain continuity of care while managing everyday life.
