About Edyta

Edyta Johnston offers calm, steady support for people facing stress, anxiety, low mood and difficult life changes. She works with clients who are wrestling with relationship problems, grief, identity questions, or challenges linked to neurodiversity. Sessions aim to help someone notice what’s happening for them and take small, manageable steps forward.

Edyta bases her work on a strong therapeutic relationship where honesty and warmth are central. She pays attention to how people describe their experience and helps them name patterns that keep causing pain.

Background and approach

This often begins with close observation of feelings, thoughts and behaviours to find where change can start. Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas and client-centred listening, along with practical techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy and dialectical behaviour therapy when they suit the person. She also uses Jungian perspectives to make sense of deeper themes and life stories.

With eight years' experience and membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, Edyta offers an inclusive space for LGBT clients and for people coping with immigration-related stress or caregiver strain. She speaks English and Polish, which can help when language matters in talking about identity or culture. Work in sessions is straightforward.

Edyta helps clients notice unhelpful patterns, test new ways of responding, and build skills for managing distress. The pace and focus are set together so each person can move forward in ways that feel achievable.

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.

Approach and practical online therapy options

Attachment-based work pays attention to how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people understand why they react strongly in close relationships and supports new ways of connecting. Client-centred therapy centres on attentive listening and acceptance, allowing people to explore their feelings at their own pace and build self-trust. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavioural changes to reduce anxiety or low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Edyta works collaboratively to see which ideas and techniques fit the person’s goals and preferences. She will try things out together with the client and adjust the mix of listening, reflection and skills training until it feels useful.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let the therapist and client work face to face when visual cues matter. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins, ongoing support between sessions or times when writing feels more manageable. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care and to fit therapy around work, family and daily life.
