About Joanna

Joanna Klekotko is a counsellor with 15 years' experience helping adults work through stress, anxiety, relationship problems, low self-esteem and trauma. She offers practical support for depression, addictions, grief and issues around intimacy and eating. Sessions are offered in English and Polish and are available to people in the United Kingdom and internationally.

Joanna uses an integrative style and adapts what she does to each person’s needs. She draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-based work and cognitive behavioural techniques.

Background and approach

In a first meeting she will listen to what feels most distressing and set simple, practical goals together. Her work focuses on helping clients notice emotions, values and patterns that get in the way of change. Joanna aims to help people build emotional resilience and find strategies to cope with life transitions and relationship stress.

She also supports those dealing with abandonment, adoption and foster care questions, attachment issues and dissociation. Sessions can be short-term problem-focused work or longer open-ended therapy depending on what the person wants. Joanna encourages people to name their goals and then chooses methods that suit those aims.

She emphasises collaboration so clients stay in control of the pace and direction. Her practice includes both conversation-based therapy and practical exercises. Joanna helps people identify unhelpful thinking, try new behaviours and settle on values-based actions that feel meaningful.

The aim is to leave therapy with clearer choices and better coping skills.

How Joanna’s approaches translate to online therapy

Joanna commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy when working online. ACT helps people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that fit their values, which can be useful for anxiety, depression and life changes. Attachment-based work focuses on patterns in close relationships and helps people understand and change how they relate to others.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Joanna will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then try methods that suit those aims. This is a collaborative process so therapy can shift if a different way of working seems more helpful.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into busy lives. Video is helpful for deeper conversation and exercises that use visual cues, phone calls work when lower bandwidth is needed, and chat or messaging can suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer typing. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, travel or family commitments and keep continuity when life is unpredictable.
