About Edyta

Edyta Johnston is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports those coping with ADHD, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, eating and sleeping difficulties, and major life changes. Sessions are offered in English and Polish and she practices from the United Kingdom.

She begins by encouraging careful self-observation so clients can see where they are now. That early work helps map clear, practical steps forward.

Background and approach

Conversations in sessions are plain and grounded, aimed at making feelings and patterns easier to name. Edyta places the therapeutic relationship at the centre of her work. She focuses on creating a calm, trustworthy space where clients can speak honestly.

Over time people often find they begin to trust their own judgement more than before. Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas, client-centred listening and cognitive behavioural techniques. She blends these with trauma-focused and dialectical tools when needed to address overwhelming feelings or repeated patterns.

The emphasis is on useful skills alongside understanding how past experiences shape present choices. Sessions are aimed at practical change as well as clearer self-understanding. Edyta will help set small goals, practise new coping strategies and notice what works between sessions.

This way therapy fits into everyday life and supports steady progress.

Ways of working Edyta names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

How different approaches work online

Attachment-based work focuses on patterns in close relationships and how early bonds shape current reactions. Online sessions use conversation and reflective listening to notice these patterns and try new ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful cycles. CBT sessions online often include simple exercises to do between meetings and straightforward ways to test new behaviours.

Choosing the right method is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and together decide whether attachment-focused conversations, CBT techniques or a blend makes most sense. This collaborative approach means the plan can change as needs evolve.

Online formats offer flexible ways to fit therapy into daily life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is preferred. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing, need moment-to-moment support or want to pace sessions differently. These options help people keep therapy going around work, study and family commitments while using the approaches described above.
