About Monika
Monika Zajac is a counsellor with nine years of practice in the United Kingdom. She trained in counselling after moving from Poland and combines her earlier experience as a high school teacher with her therapy work. Monika is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, known as BACP.
She speaks English and Polish and works with people at different life stages. Monika adapts her sessions to the individual.
Background and approach
She draws on client-centred and psychodynamic approaches to help people talk through problems. Sessions focus on understanding what matters to the person and on finding practical ways to cope. Her experience includes helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression and trauma.
She also supports those dealing with grief, low self-esteem, life changes and the challenges of parenting. Additional focuses include ADHD, chronic illness and relationship difficulties. Monika has undertaken further training related to adoption and special guardianship.
That background informs her work with adults and young adults who have that history. Her time as a teacher also gives her insight when supporting adolescents and younger clients. Sessions can be in English or Polish and are offered online by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging.
People begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and then booking a session according to the therapist's availability.

How Client-Centred and Psychodynamic Work Online
Client-centred therapy puts the person and their experience at the heart of the work. The therapist listens carefully, reflects what is heard and helps the person set their own pace and goals. This approach is useful for issues like low self-esteem, anxiety and coping with life changes.Psychodynamic therapy looks at patterns that come from past relationships and early experiences. It helps people notice repeated ways of reacting and gives space to talk about feelings that may be linked to earlier events. This can be helpful for trauma, relationship difficulties and long-standing emotional patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which ideas to use based on the person's needs, goals and preferences. Sessions can change over time as priorities shift.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls are close to a face-to-face experience and work well for in-depth sessions. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat or text-based messaging can be useful for shorter check-ins or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week and to access a therapist who speaks English or Polish.
