Welcome to the counselling profile of Irena, a dedicated person-centred counsellor committed to providing empathetic and supportive therapeutic services to individuals seeking support and healing. Irina operates both online and face-to-face sessions, ensuring accessibility and flexibility for her clients.

Approach:

Irena practices person-centred therapy, a humanistic approach founded on the belief that individuals possess the capacity for self-awareness, self-direction, and growth given the right conditions. Person-centred counselling places utmost importance on the therapeutic relationship, emphasising empathy, unconditional positive regard, and congruence to facilitate clients’ self-exploration and self-actualisation.

Services Offered:

Irena specialises in addressing a range of psychological presentations, including:

  1. Anxiety: Providing a safe space for clients to explore their anxieties, identify triggers, and develop coping strategies to manage symptoms effectively.
  2. Depression: Supporting individuals experiencing depression by fostering a nurturing environment where they can express their emotions, explore underlying issues, and cultivate resilience.
  3. Bereavement: Assisting clients in navigating the complex emotions associated with loss, offering compassionate guidance to facilitate the grieving process and find meaning in their experiences.
  4. Anger Management: Helping individuals understand the root causes of their anger, develop healthy coping mechanisms, and enhance emotional regulation skills to manage anger constructively.
  5. Relationship Challenges: Addressing a spectrum of relationship difficulties, including communication breakdowns, trust issues, emotional and sexual abuse, and other interpersonal conflicts, to foster healthier connections and facilitate healing.
  6. Trauma: Supporting survivors of trauma in processing their experiences, reducing distressing symptoms, and reclaiming a sense of safety and empowerment through trauma-informed care.

Online and Face-to-Face Counselling:

Irena offers the flexibility of both online and face-to-face counselling sessions to accommodate her client’s diverse needs and preferences. Online counselling provides convenience and accessibility, allowing individuals to access support from the comfort of their own space, while face-to-face sessions offer a more traditional therapeutic environment conducive to deeper connections and engagement.

Client-Centred Approach:

Irena prioritises each client’s unique experiences, perspectives, and goals, tailoring her therapeutic approach to meet their individual needs and preferences. By fostering an atmosphere of trust, acceptance, and mutual respect, she empowers clients to embark on their journey of self-discovery, growth, and healing.

If you are seeking compassionate support and guidance to navigate life’s challenges, Irina is here to accompany you on your path towards greater self-awareness, resilience, and fulfilment. Take the first step towards positive change by reaching out today.
