I currently have availability for new clients and offer face-to-face, online and telephone counselling, as well as home visits for those who may find travelling difficult due to mobility challenges.

Online and telephone counselling is available throughout the UK, giving you the flexibility to access therapy from a place where you feel comfortable.

Home visits may be available within the local area.

Please get in touch to check current availability, ask any questions, or arrange a free 15-minute introductory call.

Hello, my name is Aga. I am a qualified and experienced counsellor based in Walsall, West Midlands, and a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I am committed to providing a professional, ethical and confidential service in accordance with the BACP Ethical Framework.

I work with adults and young people aged 16 and over, offering compassionate support through a wide range of emotional and life challenges. I have particular experience supporting people with anxiety, grief and bereavement, women’s issues, relationship difficulties and different forms of loss — including the loss of a relationship, home, job, sense of identity or direction in life.

I offer a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space where you can slow down, explore what you are experiencing and begin to understand yourself more deeply.

Together, we can explore your emotions, relationships and patterns that may be affecting your life today, while also making space for experiences from the past that may still be having an impact.

I won’t tell you how to live or who you should become. Instead, I will work alongside you with compassion, curiosity and respect, supporting you to develop a deeper understanding of yourself and find a way forward that feels right for you.

You don’t need to have everything figured out before coming to therapy. We can start with where you are now.

I offer counselling in both English and Polish.

My approach is warm, relational and client-led. I believe that you are the expert on your own experience, and I will not tell you how you should live or who you should become. Instead, we work together at a pace that feels right for you.

The therapeutic relationship is at the heart of my work. I aim to offer a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space where you can feel heard and understood, explore difficult emotions and begin to make sense of experiences that may be affecting your life today.

I can support you with difficulties including anxiety, grief and loss, relationship difficulties, emotional overwhelm, life changes, low self-esteem and the impact of difficult or traumatic experiences.

As a trauma-informed therapist, I understand that past experiences can affect the way we feel, relate to others and respond to situations in the present. Rather than focusing only on what happened in the past, we can also pay attention to what is happening for you now — emotionally, physically and within your relationships.

Together, we can work towards greater understanding, self-compassion and a stronger sense of choice in how you move forward.

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and you don't need to know exactly what you want to say or where to begin.

I offer a free 15-minute introductory call, giving you an opportunity to ask questions, tell me a little about what brings you to therapy and see whether working together feels right for you.

You do not need to arrive with a clear explanation of what is happening or know exactly what you want to change. We can begin with what feels most important to you and explore it together.

You don't have to have everything figured out. We can start with where you are now.
