Background and approach
She listens closely and reflects what she hears to help people make sense of difficult feelings. Over time she brings tools from cognitive behavioural therapy to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try small experiments that can change day-to-day life. Drazenka also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns.
For people affected by trauma she uses trauma-focused approaches to help process painful experiences in a paced way. She weaves existential themes into conversation when people want to examine meaning, identity or life direction. She holds registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and has worked in the field for 16 years.
Drazenka communicates in English, Bosnian, Croatian and Serbian, and she practises from the United Kingdom. Practical options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Sessions are run on a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How trauma-informed and attachment approaches work online
Trauma-focused therapy helps people process painful events at a pace they can manage. Sessions aim to reduce the hold of traumatic memories and teach ways to cope with triggers so day-to-day life feels more manageable.Attachment-based therapy looks at how early relationships affect current patterns. It helps people notice repeating dynamics in close relationships and practise new ways of relating to feel safer and more connected.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what has helped before, and they will choose and adapt methods together. This is collaborative and may change over time as needs evolve.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people read facial cues and use visual exercises, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier when long video calls are difficult. Live chat and text messaging suit brief check-ins, written reflection or day-to-day support between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and travel and support continuity when in-person sessions are not possible.
