Karina Kaminski is a therapist based in the United Kingdom with three years of clinical experience supporting individuals, couples, and young people. She has worked with a wide range of concerns, including depression, bereavement, emotional and financial abuse, domestic violence, anxiety, panic attacks, trauma, social phobia, low self-esteem, and other depressive symptoms.

Her style is described as warm, caring, and interactive, grounded in respect, sensitivity, and compassion. She adopts a non-judgmental stance and listens closely to what each person wants to achieve from therapy, tailoring conversations and treatment plans to the individual’s needs. Karina blends cognitive-behavioral techniques with humanistic and psychodynamic influences, alongside mindfulness practices, to create a flexible approach that meets specific goals and preferences.

Karina holds the NCPS credential - a recognized psychotherapy qualification - and works in English. She aims to support and empower people who are ready to take steps toward a more fulfilling life, offering practical, person-focused care without stigmatizing labels.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Karina draws on client-centered therapy to create a respectful, empathetic space where a person’s own goals guide the work; this approach is useful for building self-awareness, confidence, and stronger relationships. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy - a practical, skills-based approach that helps identify and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns, often applied to anxiety, depression, panic attacks, and stress. Mindfulness therapy is incorporated to help people develop present-moment awareness and coping strategies that reduce reactivity and support emotional regulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Karina works collaboratively with each client to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time, combining elements from different approaches to create a personalized plan.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options can make it easier to attend sessions around work, family, or mobility constraints and allow those living in different parts of the United Kingdom to access licensed professionals without extensive travel. Karina uses these modalities to provide consistent, accessible care tailored to each client’s situation.
