About Barbora

Barbora Bruff is a counsellor who uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addictions and the effects of trauma and abuse. She brings three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and speaks English and Slovak. Barbora aims to listen without judgement and to adapt sessions to individual needs.

Her background includes work in critical care settings, where she encountered compassion fatigue firsthand. That experience informs how she supports people dealing with burnout and the emotional toll of demanding roles.

Background and approach

She also helps with issues around attachment, body image, life purpose, and midlife transitions. Barbora works with concerns linked to physical health too, such as cancer, fertility, pregnancy and childbirth, postpartum depression, and hospice and end-of-life counselling. She also supports people facing process addictions and self-harm urges, and those carrying guilt or shame.

Sessions are shaped around each person’s situation. She emphasises practical conversation and clear steps rather than abstract theory. People can expect a calm, respectful space to talk things through and to set achievable goals.

Barbora accepts international clients and offers a range of online session formats. Fees vary depending on location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Barbora lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

Practical therapeutic approaches and online access

Barbora uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on what helps in day-to-day life. One approach she uses helps people identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns to reduce anxiety and low mood. Another approach focuses on processing responses to trauma and abuse by slowly building coping skills and emotional regulation over time.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Barbora will discuss goals, past experiences and personal preferences, then tailor the plan together. She checks in regularly and adjusts methods if something is not helping.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit busy lives and different comfort levels. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for shorter check-ins and text messaging supports ongoing, flexible contact. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and health commitments.
