About Robert

Robert Paczkowski welcomes people who feel stuck, overwhelmed or anxious and who want practical support to feel better. He writes simply and listens closely so people can talk about what matters. Sessions are aimed at helping someone find clearer ways forward and build more calm day to day.

Robert uses a person-centred way of working that puts the client's experience first. He also draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to help with unhelpful thoughts and patterns.

Background and approach

Together these approaches make room for both understanding the past and changing what happens now. He has seven years of counselling experience and works with a broad range of concerns. These include stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, trauma and abuse, and relationship and parenting stresses.

He also addresses issues such as self-esteem, body image, isolation, and the effects of family of origin problems. Sessions are available in English and Polish and Robert accepts international clients. He offers short-term, medium-term and open-ended work so people can choose what fits their situation.

He follows the ethical guidelines of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and holds NCPS as a listed credential. People meet him to talk things through without judgement. In the first meeting he and the client discuss practical goals and the route forward.

That conversation helps decide whether to use a short focused plan or a more open ongoing process.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Client-centred therapy focuses on giving the client space to be heard. The therapist listens without directing and helps the client find their own answers, which can help with issues like low self-esteem, grief and long-standing unhappiness.

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviours keep problems going. Online CBT sessions can teach practical skills to manage anxiety, stress and addictive behaviours by working on small, repeatable changes.

Psychodynamic work pays attention to patterns that come from past relationships and family of origin problems. In an online setting this can help people make sense of repeated difficulties and reduce feeling stuck.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what feels useful. Together they decide whether to focus on short-term solutions, practical skills, or a longer exploration of patterns.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is helpful for a full face-to-face feel, phone works when bandwidth is low, chat or messaging can be useful for quick check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping the focus on making steady progress.
