About Karolina

Karolina Allan welcomes people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or worn down by life’s challenges. She helps individuals who are struggling with stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and self-esteem concerns. Sessions are offered in English and Lithuanian and are conducted online in a variety of formats.

Karolina uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people understand what keeps problems going and to develop practical ways to feel better.

Background and approach

She takes a collaborative approach, working alongside each person to set realistic goals and to build skills that fit day-to-day life. The focus is on small, manageable steps rather than quick fixes. In the room she aims to create an accepting, non-judgemental space where people can talk through past events and current stresses.

Conversations are straightforward and goal-focused, with time spent on coping strategies and making sense of difficult experiences. This practical emphasis is useful for issues such as chronic pain, caregiver stress, body image, and adjustment after illness. Her background includes four years of clinical practice and professional registration with BACP and NCPS.

That experience has involved working with concerns related to attachment, abandonment, adoption and foster care, and coping with disaster or major life change. Sessions are delivered by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

People who want to start complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session according to therapist availability.

Approaches that suit online therapy and trauma work

Karolina uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding patterns and building practical skills. One common approach she applies helps people notice the thoughts and behaviours that keep anxiety and low mood going, and then tries small changes to break those cycles. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression and stress. Another approach concentrates on processing difficult experiences at a comfortable pace, helping people make sense of traumatic events and reduce their day-to-day impact. It is often used for trauma and abuse related difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and agree a plan together. That plan can be adjusted as you go, so the method fits you rather than the other way round.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video calls are good for a face-to-face feel and fuller conversation. Phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer writing or need flexible, shorter contacts throughout the week. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to access support from different places across the UK.
