About Kat

Kat Januchowska is a counsellor who focuses on sexual dysfunction alongside a range of emotional and life challenges. She speaks English and Polish and works from the United Kingdom. Her early aim is to help people feel heard and to build a sense of belonging when life feels overwhelming.

Kat offers a calm, person-centred style that starts with listening. She encourages people to describe what matters most to them and looks at how thoughts, feelings and bodily sensations link together. Conversations stay practical and grounded, with space to notice patterns that keep problems repeating.

Her approach draws on client-centred and existential ideas, helping people explore meaning, values and everyday choices. Sessions can include reflections on relationships, grief, anxiety, or difficulties with intimacy and sexual function. Kat aims to support clearer decision making and greater self-acceptance over time.

She has three years of professional experience and is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That registration is shown as BACP in her credentials.

People who work with her typically focus on specific problems such as stress, depression, trauma, addictions, ADHD, or career concerns. She also addresses related issues like attachment, body image, caregiver stress and bereavement. Before booking, readers should check the current session formats to confirm what is offered.

How her approaches work for online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy emphasises listening and respect for each person's experience. The therapist follows what matters to the client, helping people feel understood and guiding conversations toward practical changes and clearer decisions.

Existential Therapy focuses on meaning, choice and the challenges of being human. It can help people facing life transitions, questions of identity, or struggles with loneliness and purpose.

Deciding which approach fits best is part of the work together. The counsellor will help clients identify their needs, goals and preferences and will shape sessions around those priorities in a collaborative way.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so readers should confirm the available online options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer not to be on camera or who need a quieter setup at home or work. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often use online work to maintain continuity of care and greater convenience for clients.
