Her background includes work as a school counsellor and as a mentor for young people, particularly around body image and distorted body perception, and she brings experience working with people from diverse cultural backgrounds. She provides therapy in English and Polish and holds NCPS, a recognised counselling credential. Gosia aims to create an accepting, nonjudgmental space where people can explore their experiences and work toward greater well-being.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Malgorzata "Gosia" Grabowska draws on several evidence-informed approaches to tailor therapy to each person's needs. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns of relating and can help with relationship difficulties, insecurity, and attachment issues. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where the client leads the pace of exploration and self-discovery, assisting those facing low self-esteem, life transitions, and identity concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, making it useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with difficult emotions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Gosia collaborates with clients to assess goals, preferences, and practical needs, and adjusts methods over time so the work remains responsive and personally meaningful.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging allow clients to access sessions from different locations and schedules. These options can make it easier to maintain continuity of care during busy periods, travel, or when in-person meetings are difficult, while still working with licensed professionals and therapists to pursue therapeutic goals.
