About Piotr
Piotr Slaczka is a counsellor with ten years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. He is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Piotr offers a welcoming, down-to-earth approach for people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression or life changes.
He draws on a range of methods to suit each person’s needs. Piotr pays attention to how emotions show up in the body and in relationships.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on clear, practical steps and on understanding patterns that keep problems repeating. People come to him for help with addiction, grief, intimacy and sexual concerns, sleep and eating difficulties, career pressures, and issues linked to ADHD or bipolar diagnosis. He also works with concerns such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, codependency and chronic illness.
Conversations aim to reduce shame and build manageable coping skills. Piotr uses a collaborative style. He listens, reflects, and offers a mix of tools drawn from evidence-informed methods.
Sessions are paced to fit the person and their situation, with room for emotion and practical problem solving. He offers sessions in English and Polish and sees international clients. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions according to availability.
How therapeutic approaches work online
Somatic-informed work pays attention to physical sensations and how emotions settle in the body. It can help when stress or trauma feels stuck, or when physical tension keeps causing distress. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice thoughts without getting stuck in them and clarify what matters to them. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and life transitions because it builds values-based action.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will check what feels most helpful and will adapt methods as needs and goals become clearer. This is a collaborative process where the person's preferences and practical life demands guide the choices about tools and pacing.
Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging to make therapy more flexible. These options let people access support from home, fit sessions around work or caring responsibilities, and continue work while travelling or living abroad. The format can be changed if one way of working proves less helpful, so practical access and therapeutic fit are both considered together.
