About Zuzanna
Zuzanna Horowska is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years' experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and life changes. Her work also covers related concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues, cancer, caregiver stress, codependency, communication and commitment problems, and feelings of emptiness.
She describes her orientation as humanistic and integrative. That means she draws on several ways of working to suit what someone brings to sessions. Zuzanna pays attention to both thoughts and bodily experience, and to unconscious patterns that affect relationships and day-to-day life.
Her approach places importance on the therapeutic relationship. She uses psychodynamic ideas, object relations and transactional analysis alongside Gestalt and some body-focused exercises. She also uses elements of cognitive behavioural work when appropriate, and she is trained in Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) for trauma-related material.
In practical terms she may suggest simple exercises to try between sessions or creative tasks in therapy itself. Conversations cover how past experience shapes present behaviour, ways to communicate feelings more clearly, and strategies to reduce panic or intense anxiety. Her background includes work with cancer support and charities offering counselling for health, drug and alcohol concerns.

Therapeutic approaches and how online work can help
EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing, is a trauma-focused approach Zuzanna uses to help process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity. It involves guided attention and structured steps to revisit difficult experiences in a controlled way.Psychodynamic and object-relations ideas focus on how early relationships shape present patterns. These approaches help identify repeated relational habits and make them easier to notice and change in day-to-day life.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Zuzanna will discuss preferences, goals and current difficulties and together decide which methods to try. She adapts the mix of talking, practical exercises and EMDR based on what is most helpful for each person.
If you want to use online sessions, please check the available formats before booking as the biography does not list specific session types. Online work can make regular appointments easier to fit into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also makes it possible to continue therapy after a move or when managing health or caring responsibilities. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors, can tailor online sessions to focus on trauma processing, relationship patterns or practical coping skills depending on your goals.
