About Milena

Milena Marcinek helps people with stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and family-related concerns. She uses an integrative humanistic approach and draws on client-centred, mindfulness, somatic and trauma-focused methods to work in ways that fit the person. Milena is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years of professional experience.

Her sessions focus on listening carefully and on building understanding of what keeps problems going. She will talk through current difficulties and how past experiences influence feelings and behaviour. Practical techniques from mindfulness and somatic work are used to help with strong emotions and bodily tension.

Milena also offers trauma-focused work for people affected by difficult or painful past events. That work looks at patterns that developed after hurtful experiences and at ways to reduce distress linked to those memories. The emphasis is on gentle pacing and on what the client can manage.

She commonly supports people with issues such as ADHD-related difficulties, attachment and abandonment concerns, codependency, communication problems, control issues and isolation. She also addresses body image, guilt and shame, impulsivity and problems connected to infidelity and domestic violence.

Sessions are conducted in English and Polish. Milena accepts international clients and works from the United Kingdom. She uses a subscription payment model that can be cancelled at any time.

How Milena uses her approaches in online sessions

Client-centred therapy places the person’s experience at the centre of the work and focuses on being listened to and understood; it helps with low self-esteem, relationship and communication issues. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce rumination and to manage stress and anxious thoughts. Somatic therapy brings attention to bodily sensations and uses gentle exercises to ease physical tension related to strong emotions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Milena will discuss goals, needs and preferences and together they will agree which methods to use and at what pace. This is a collaborative process and can change as therapy progresses.

Please confirm the exact session formats before booking because the biography does not specify them. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also means sessions can be done without being on camera if that is preferred, or adjusted in other practical ways to suit day-to-day life.
