About Barbora
Her background includes work in critical care settings, which shapes her understanding of compassion fatigue and the pressures faced by people in high-demand roles. That experience also informs how she helps people recover from trauma and abuse and from process addictions such as gambling or exercise-related issues.
In sessions she focuses on tailoring discussion and plans to what each person needs. She will listen, reflect, and help set small, achievable steps that feel manageable. Topics Barbora often addresses include body image, postpartum depression, fertility and pregnancy concerns, and coping with grief related to cancer or hospice care.
People seeking help for attachment issues, guilt and shame, or a sense of lost purpose in midlife will find a direct, compassionate approach. She also works with multicultural concerns and can support those navigating life changes across different cultural contexts.
Practical matters such as cost use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a prospective client completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules according to Barbora's availability using the Start Therapy button.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online counselling
Many of the evidence-based methods Barbora uses focus on clear, structured work in the session. One common approach emphasises identifying patterns in thoughts and behaviours and testing small changes to see what helps in everyday life; this is useful for anxiety, depression and many forms of stress. Another approach concentrates on processing difficult experiences safely and building strategies to reduce the impact of past trauma and abuse on current functioning.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Barbora will collaborate with each person to understand their goals and preferences and then try methods that fit those aims. She will adjust plans as needed so the work stays relevant and practical.
Practical benefits of online therapy can include easier scheduling and the ability to fit sessions into a busy week. If you are considering remote sessions, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Many people find online counselling helpful because it reduces travel time and makes regular check-ins simpler to maintain.
