Edyta Johnston, BACP

Edyta Johnston creates a supportive therapeutic environment where people can address a wide range of concerns, from anxiety and depression to work burnout, eating disorders, relationship difficulties and neurodiversity. Her practice begins with close self-observation so clients can accurately identify their current emotional and behavioral patterns and understand where change is needed.

Her work is rooted in the therapeutic relationship, with an emphasis on honesty delivered with care. Those who benefit most find sessions to be a space where truth can be noticed and explored, and where trusting the inner voice grows alongside the therapeutic connection. Edyta encourages open, compassionate reflection that helps clients name difficult material and work through it at a manageable pace.

She combines relational focus with practical interventions to help people develop new ways of relating to themselves and others. Edyta holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - a professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists, which reflects her commitment to professional standards and ongoing development.

Therapeutic approaches for online work and connection

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current ways of connecting and reacting. It helps people who struggle with abandonment, attachment issues, intimacy-related concerns and relationship cycles by exploring these patterns within the therapeutic relationship.

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client’s experience, offering a non-directive space where a person’s own resources and insights are encouraged. This approach supports increases in self-esteem, clearer self-understanding and more confident decision making.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) examines links between thoughts, feelings and behaviors and offers practical strategies to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, stress and sleep difficulties. It helps people develop skills to change unhelpful thinking patterns and to try new behaviors.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Edyta will work with each person to consider goals, preferences and life context and to tailor methods that feel useful and manageable. She aims to combine relational sensitivity with practical tools so the therapy fits the client rather than the other way around.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving or mobility needs. For many people this range of options supports more consistent attendance and allows therapy to continue through life transitions, while still working with registered professionals and trained therapists.
