About Julita

Julita Ostrowska is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief and difficulties with self-esteem and body image. She also supports those dealing with relationship and intimacy concerns, trauma and abuse, addictions, sleep problems and large life changes. Julita speaks English, Italian and Polish and works with clients in the United Kingdom and internationally.

Julita uses an approach rooted in client-centred care, with influences from Jungian and mindfulness work and somatic practices. In sessions she listens closely, helps people name what matters most, and offers practical tools such as breathing exercises, grounding and movement-based methods. Work is paced to each person, with attention to feelings in the body as well as thoughts.

Her training includes a four-year postgraduate diploma in counselling and psychotherapy at the Centre of Counselling and Psychotherapy Education in London and an earlier one-year fundamentals course at the same centre. Julita has six years of professional experience and has also taught yoga and movement workshops that inform her therapeutic style.

Clients can expect conversations that combine reflection with hands-on techniques like breathwork, guided visualisation and gentle embodiment. Julita emphasises helping people recognise unhelpful patterns, including attachment or abandonment issues, codependency and control struggles. Sessions aim to build skills for day-to-day coping and to restore a stronger sense of self.

She brings a personal interest in integrating Eastern and Western practices, drawing on mindfulness, dance, yoga and dream work to support healing and self-discovery. People who want to explore sexuality, empowerment and personal development may find her approach relevant.

Approaches you might find helpful online

Client-centred therapy focuses on empathetic listening and helping people clarify their own goals. It is useful for anxiety, depression and relationship concerns because it puts the person's experience at the centre of the work.

Jungian-informed work pays attention to symbols, dreams and deeper patterns in a person's life. This approach can help when someone is interested in meaning, recurring life themes or exploring identity and selfhood.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to match methods to a person's needs, goals and preferences, and may blend approaches as that fit becomes clearer.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time or allowing a quieter check-in during a lunch break. Because session formats were not specified in the biographical information, confirm the current session options before booking. Many people find online work helpful for continuing steady progress when in-person meetings are difficult to arrange.
