About Edyta

Edyta Johnston helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood or uncertainty. She welcomes clients who are dealing with relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, ADHD, eating or sleeping struggles and life transitions. Edyta works in English and Polish and practices from the United Kingdom.

She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Edyta begins by helping people notice what is happening for them in daily life.

How Edyta works

She uses observation and gentle reflection to pinpoint patterns that keep problems repeating. Sessions are conversational and aim to make difficult topics easier to talk about. Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current feelings and reactions.

She also uses client-centred methods that place the person's experience at the centre of therapy. Cognitive behavioural tools are used when practical steps and new ways of thinking can reduce distress. Edyta has eight years of experience working with concerns such as trauma and abuse, abandonment and attachment issues, caregiver stress, codependency and dissociation.

She also supports people facing immigration-related stresses, guilt and shame, and issues around body image and self-worth. Sessions can focus on short-term coping skills or longer exploration of life themes, depending on what each person needs. The tone is warm and direct, aiming to build trust and help people speak honestly about what matters to them.

Online support options

How Edyta's approaches work online

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current emotions and reactions, helping people understand patterns that repeat in adult life and relationships. Client-centred therapy focuses on the person's lived experience and creates space for them to be heard and understood without judgement. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) offers practical steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, useful for anxiety, low mood and sleep or eating difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and is decided together. The therapist will listen to your concerns, discuss goals and try methods that match your needs and preferences. This collaborative way helps tailor sessions to either brief problem-solving or longer personal exploration.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different situations. Video allows face-to-face conversation, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging supports shorter check-ins or people who prefer to write. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments while keeping a steady path of support.
