Kat Januchowska, BACP

Many people wonder whether they are too much or never enough, or feel overwhelmed and disconnected from others. Kat Januchowska recognises those painful questions and approaches them with curiosity and compassion, helping people who feel they do not belong or who want to create more meaningful connections.

She believes the therapeutic relationship itself can open a way forward when life feels stuck. Drawing on Gestalt ideas, Kat works with the body-mind connection to explore habitual patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaviour, offering space to reflect on all aspects of the self. In her practice change is approached through developing deep self-acceptance and greater awareness of present experience.

Kat uses this approach to support people facing depression, anxiety and panic attacks, grief and loss, difficult life circumstances, relationship difficulties, addiction, and disordered eating. Her work is focused on helping clients notice patterns, build understanding, and find ways to move through challenging emotions toward more authentic connection and personal clarity.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client’s experience guides the work. The therapist offers empathy and unconditional positive regard, helping clients explore feelings, build self-understanding, and find their own solutions to issues such as anxiety, relationship strain, or life transitions.

Existential Therapy invites clients to explore meaning, choice, and personal responsibility in the face of life’s uncertainties. This approach can be useful for people wrestling with questions about identity, belonging, loss, or major life changes and supports finding purpose and authentic ways of living.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Kat Januchowska works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She and the client will reflect together and adapt the work over time to ensure the approach feels helpful.

Online therapy with registered professionals offers flexibility and accessibility, with options for video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, continue work during life changes, and access support from home, while allowing therapists and clients to maintain a focused, treatment-oriented relationship.
