About Joanna
Joanna (Asha) Kaszczuk-Baulch helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or depression. She supports those dealing with relationship problems, trauma, anger and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. Joanna works in English and Polish and draws on 13 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.
Joanna sees each person as an expert in their own life. She focuses on listening carefully and building a practical plan together. Sessions aim to make things clearer and to identify small steps that bring relief and change.
How Joanna works
Her approach blends different ways of working to suit the person in front of her. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to spot thought patterns and try simple experiments. Client-centred methods mean conversations are led by the client’s priorities and pace.
Joanna also uses psychodynamic ideas to look at repeated patterns that cause pain, and solution-focused strategies to set clear, reachable goals. For people affected by traumatic events she brings trauma-focused methods to help process difficult memories safely. Many clients come with complex, overlapping concerns such as parenting strain, grief, addiction, immigration stress or issues around sexuality.
Joanna helps people untangle these problems and work towards clearer choices. She aims to offer practical, straightforward support that fits real life.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches you can access online
Joanna draws on cognitive behavioural therapy and client-centred methods in online work. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect and uses straightforward exercises to test new ways of thinking and behaving. Client-centred therapy keeps the conversation focused on the person’s priorities and pace, with the counsellor listening closely and reflecting what matters most.She also uses trauma-focused techniques when needed to help people process painful events, and may bring in psychodynamic ideas to understand recurring patterns. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Joanna will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and agree together which methods to try first and how to adapt them over time.
Online therapy is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be shorter or fit a busy day, and live chat or text messaging can help with quick check-ins or when writing feels easier. These options give flexibility to fit therapy into everyday life and to keep progress moving between sessions.
