About Zuzanna

Zuzanna Horowska is a counsellor who brings four years of practice to her work in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation, and she focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and life changes. Zuzanna aims to create a warm, accepting space where clients can say what matters and feel heard.

She uses a relational, humanistic approach that pays attention to thought, feeling and bodily experience.

02

How Zuzanna works

Zuzanna notices patterns that repeat in relationships and helps people make sense of how the past affects the present. Where helpful, she draws on Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing to work with traumatic memories. Sessions include talking, noticing physical responses and trying simple practices together.

She may use gentle body-awareness exercises or short tasks between sessions when these help progress. The focus is practical: clearer communication, fewer panic episodes, better self-worth and calmer coping with change. Zuzanna has worked in cancer support, NHS-linked services and charities for people affected by addiction and health problems.

This background informs her ability to support people facing illness, caregiver strain and major life transitions. Her style is direct but compassionate. She encourages small, steady steps and collaborative planning.

People who want a thoughtful counsellor who listens for hidden patterns may find her approach helpful.

Online support options

Working with EMDR and relational approaches online

EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing, is a method used to reduce the intensity of distressing memories. It involves focusing on a memory while following gentle bilateral stimulation to help the brain process the experience, which can ease reactions to past trauma.

Alongside EMDR, she draws on relational, humanistic ideas that pay attention to emotions, thoughts and bodily responses. This means sessions may include talking, noticing physical sensations and trying simple in-session exercises to help people feel and think about difficult issues in new ways.

Deciding which approach to use is a shared process. The therapist will work with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals and comfort level. Discussions about pace, techniques and any between-session tasks are part of this collaborative planning.

Online work can fit different routines and preferences. Video calls allow fuller face-to-face interaction, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging can suit short check-ins or moments when writing feels easier. These options make it simpler to schedule therapy around work, caregiving and everyday life.
