About Karina

Karina Kaminski is a caring counsellor who uses a client-centred approach to help people facing anger, anxiety and life changes. She holds NCPS and draws on three years of practice in the United Kingdom. Her style is warm and non-judgemental, with an emphasis on listening and understanding what each person wants to achieve.

Karina adapts sessions to the issues people bring, such as stress, depression, grief, parenting strain and relationship difficulties. She also supports people dealing with compassion fatigue, low self-esteem and panic attacks. Sessions aim to be practical and focused on what helps day to day rather than labels or jargon.

Her work brings together client-centred methods with cognitive behavioural and mindfulness techniques. That mix helps people spot unhelpful thoughts, try out different responses and build calmer habits. She also uses solution-focused ideas to set clear, manageable goals and track small changes.

Karina has experience with a wide range of concerns, including adoption and foster care matters, attachment issues, domestic violence effects, and trauma-related problems. She listens for each person’s priorities and adjusts the approach to fit their needs and pace.

People meeting Karina can expect a collaborative tone. She supports people to articulate what they want to change and to practice new ways of coping between sessions. Her aim is to empower individuals to make steady progress toward clearer goals.

How her approaches work online and in sessions

Karina blends client-centred work with cognitive behavioural techniques to support people tackling anger, anxiety and life changes. Client-centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel heard and understood and can set their own priorities. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and try practical experiments to change reactions and behaviours.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Karina will talk with each person about what they want to achieve and try methods that fit their goals and preferences. She collaborates on a plan and checks progress so adjustments can be made as needed.

Please confirm the current session formats before booking as the biography does not list specific online options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also allows people to use mindfulness exercises and CBT tools between meetings to build new habits and manage anger and stress in daily routines.
