Robert Paczkowski, BACP, NCPS

Robert Paczkowski is a BACP and NCPS registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with seven years of practice. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, parenting concerns and anger. Sessions are offered in English and Polish and he accepts international clients.

Robert uses a person-centred stance that keeps the client in the lead. He listens without judgement and helps people talk through what feels most important. He offers short-term, medium-term and open-ended options and will discuss which approach feels best at the first meeting.

His work also draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to help identify unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. That can be useful when someone wants practical steps for managing anger or anxiety. He uses psychodynamic ideas to look at longer-standing patterns that come from past relationships and family of origin issues.

Solution-focused techniques are used when clients want to set concrete goals and notice early changes. The blend of approaches means sessions can move between exploring deeper feelings and trying small, concrete changes in day-to-day life. Robert aims to help people reduce tension, improve communication, and address problems that feed into their anger.

He follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy ethical guidelines and holds an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check. That background informs how he works with matters like addiction, domestic violence, discrimination and LGBT related issues.
