About Milena
Milena Marcinek is a BACP-registered psychotherapeutic counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She works with adults who are feeling stuck or unsure after changes in work, relationships or health. Common concerns she helps people with include stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, family problems and questions about life purpose.
Milena uses a humanistic integrative approach. That means she draws on different methods to find what fits each person. Sessions are conversational and paced to the client's comfort. She focuses on listening and helping people identify practical steps they can try between meetings.
Her practice includes work on trauma-related issues and on patterns that come from attachment and early relationships. She also addresses concerns such as abandonment, codependency, body image, impulsivity and communication problems. When appropriate, somatic techniques are used to help people notice how feelings show up in the body.
Mindfulness-based tools are offered to help manage anxiety and stress. These are presented as straightforward practices that can be used in daily life. Client-Centred Therapy underpins the work, keeping the person’s priorities central to each session.
She offers sessions in English and Polish and accepts international clients. Costs vary with location and sessions are supplied via a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session via the online options button.
How Milena uses approaches in online work
Milena commonly blends Client-Centred Therapy with Mindfulness and Somatic approaches. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's priorities, helping people talk through what matters most to them. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to manage anxiety and stress in daily life. Somatic Therapy pays attention to bodily sensations and uses gentle techniques to help people notice and respond to physical signs of emotion.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. Milena treats this as a collaborative process, using the first sessions to identify goals, preferences and which methods feel most useful for the person. She adjusts the plan as needs change rather than sticking to a fixed method.
