About Barbora

Barbora Bruff is a counsellor who uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression and addictions. She brings three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and aims to create a respectful, sensitive atmosphere for every person she meets. She has worked in critical care settings and understands compassion fatigue from that background.

That experience informs how she supports people who feel worn down by high-pressure work or ongoing caregiving roles.

Background and approach

Barbora adapts conversations and plans to fit each person’s needs rather than following a rigid formula. Her work covers trauma and abuse, and she also supports people struggling with process addictions such as gambling, exercise or pornography. She helps those facing life transitions including midlife concerns, fertility and pregnancy-related distress, and end-of-life and hospice matters.

Barbora also addresses attachment issues, body image and guilt or shame, and offers support around cancer, ageing and geriatric concerns. She can talk through challenges linked to postpartum depression and first responder issues, and she is comfortable working with multicultural situations. Sessions are available in English and Slovak.

Barbora accepts international clients and offers a range of online formats so people can choose what fits their routine. She aims to support and empower people as they take steps towards a more manageable and meaningful life.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Barbora lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

How evidence-based approaches fit with online therapy

Barbora works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional understanding. One approach she uses helps people recognise and change unhelpful patterns of thinking and behaviour, which can reduce anxiety and low mood by giving clear steps to practise between sessions. Another approach concentrates on processing difficult experiences safely, helping people make sense of trauma and reduce its ongoing impact on daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Barbora will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and decide together which methods to try. That collaborative process means the plan can be adjusted as progress is made or priorities change.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to offer practical flexibility. Video calls are useful for face-to-face interaction, phone sessions can fit into a short break, and text or chat can work for ongoing check-ins or when someone prefers written conversation. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or travel commitments while keeping therapy focused and goal-oriented.
