Anna Mikolajczyk

My practice is based in the convenient central location of St. James's, a couple of minutes walk south from Piccadilly station, with many other stations a short walk away. 

Hi, I’m Anna.

I’m a warm, insightful, down-to-earth psychotherapist with an international background.

Having grown up in Canada, with European roots, and lived and worked 7 years in Japan, and now 15 years in the UK, I am interested in questions of identity and the contexts and relationships that shape who we are. This multicultural experience enriches my therapeutic practice, allowing me to connect deeply with clients from various backgrounds. Many of my clients explore existential concerns related to their gender, race, age, ethnicity, or sexuality.

Beyond labels and diagnoses, I am interested in who you are, what has happened to you, how you are currently coping, and what you truly need to move forward with more ease. My aim is for you to be seen and understood within a trusted therapeutic relationship, where something new can begin.

I work with clients on a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression, grief and loss, questions around identity, life transitions, illness, challenging work or family dynamics, relationship difficulties, and recent or historic trauma. I understand how such experiences can leave us feeling disconnected from ourselves.

I am not a silent therapist - we will dialogue. Through cognitive and embodied explorations, we will make space for what is valuable to you, where you find meaning, and what feels confusing, painful, shameful, and is keeping you up at night. I'll be alongside you with patience, encouragement, and compassionate care, offering gentle prompts and challenges to open perspectives, and invite reflection, insight, and the quiet shifts that can transform everyday life.

Change often begins in unexpected ways. The path ahead is yours, with my support.

I am a qualified psychotherapist with a Master’s degree in integrative psychotherapy and a Postgraduate Certificate in existential psychotherapy from Regent's University London, and a BA from the University of Toronto, graduating with distinction. My post-graduate training was a rigorous five-year program, providing a thorough foundation in theory and clinical practice to work with complex emotional and existential concerns.

I have a special interest in life transitions, helping clients navigate periods of loss, change, and uncertainty such as relationship endings, career shifts, retirement, or entering new phases of life.

I have worked in both private and charity sectors, supporting a wide range of clients. I have experience in inner child work, which can be particularly helpful for clients who have experienced trauma, neglect, or difficult early life experiences. I have a background in supporting international executives adapting to significant career changes and new cultural environments, and I recognise how the demands corporate life may place pressure on personal well-being.

I am a Registered Member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP), and the Society of Existential Analysis (SEA). I abide by the ethical code of BACP, including a commitment to regular supervision and continuing professional development.

These experiences shape a practice that is both compassionate and thoughtful, offering a space where you can feel understood and supported as you navigate life's challenges.

I offer a free 30-minute initial consultation, in person or online, and reserve a limited number of concession spaces to help make therapy more accessible.
