About Karolina

Karolina Callaghan is a Humanistic counsellor and therapist who builds on a decade of health and social care experience. She practises in the United Kingdom and brings a calm, respectful manner to sessions. Her work is grounded in compassion and a belief that each person knows themselves best.

Karolina uses a relational style that focuses on listening and partnership. She offers a space to talk about stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and life changes.

Background and approach

She also supports people with relationship and intimacy questions, eating and workplace concerns, and issues around self-esteem and purpose. Her background includes a postgraduate diploma in Humanistic Psychotherapy and Counselling from the University of Brighton. During training she worked as a therapist in a hospice and volunteered with a low-cost counselling charity.

She also has about three years of direct counselling experience alongside earlier health and social care roles. Karolina is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP - and follows its professional standards. She speaks English and Czech and provides sessions online in a variety of formats.

Practical needs like money worries, caregiving stress, pregnancy and end-of-life concerns are also within her focus. In sessions Karolina aims to help people notice what matters and to try new ways of coping. She prefers a gentle, collaborative approach that looks at choices and meaning, and helps people take small steps toward feeling more authentic.

How Karolina’s approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on being listened to without judgement. The therapist provides empathy and acceptance so people can explore feelings, build self-understanding and work through issues like anxiety, depression or low self-esteem.

Existential Therapy looks at meaning, choice and personal values. It helps when life changes, grief, questions about purpose or feelings of emptiness are present by encouraging reflection and practical steps for living more authentically.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Karolina will discuss what feels most helpful and adapt methods to fit a person’s goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process where the therapist and client test what works and change course as needed.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls support face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who write better than they speak. These options offer flexibility to fit therapy around work, caring responsibilities and other daily commitments.
