About Renata
Renata Karlinskaite speaks directly to people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief or big life changes. She presents as a calm, supportive counsellor who helps clients find practical ways to feel steadier. Renata starts by listening and helping clients name what matters most to them.
She focuses on small steps that add up to real change. Renata uses a mix of talking therapies and goal-focused techniques to match each person’s needs.
How Renata works
She draws on client-centred work to build trust and on cognitive behavioural tools to address unhelpful thinking and routine patterns. Hypnotherapy and psychodynamic ideas are available when deeper habits and memories need attention. Sessions can include straightforward problem solving for work stress and career doubts.
They can also focus on self-esteem, body image, control issues, guilt and shame, or feelings of isolation. Renata supports people navigating parenting strains, relationship worries, intimacy-related issues, sleeping difficulties and life purpose questions. Her style is practical and encouraging.
She helps clients set clear, achievable goals and checks progress together. Short-term coaching work is also offered for people who want focused change rather than long therapy. Renata is credentialed with NCPS and has five years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.
Sessions are conducted in English and are offered through video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging for convenience.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions explained
Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. The counsellor follows the client's lead, reflects what they say and helps them clarify their own goals; this approach is useful for building trust and exploring values. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns; it often helps with anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss different methods and tailor sessions to the client's needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process where techniques are tried, reviewed and adjusted rather than imposed.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people see non-verbal cues and work more like an in-person session. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or when a client prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or when someone needs to fit a session into a busy day. These formats make it easier to keep therapy consistent alongside work, family and travel commitments, and they allow registered or accredited professionals to support clients in a range of situations.
