About Paulina Szot

Paulina Szot is an integrative counsellor based in the United Kingdom who offers a compassionate, non-judgmental space for people to explore what matters most to them. She works from a holistic perspective that considers mind, body, soul, and emotions, guiding clients toward healing and personal growth while honoring each person’s individual experience.

Paulina has supported people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, depression, and significant life changes. Her practice is attentive to issues such as attachment and abandonment, family of origin concerns, codependency, chronic illness and pain, and difficulties with communication, control, guilt, and shame. She approaches each relationship with sensitivity, respect, and a focus on empowerment, helping clients build coping skills and find more clarity and purpose.

Paulina is professionally recognised by the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and works under UK law and professional standards. Her counselling services are offered as supportive wellbeing care and are not intended as clinical treatment or medical advice. If services are accessed from outside the United Kingdom, her qualifications may not be recognised in that jurisdiction and in such cases sessions are offered as non-clinical, conversation-based wellbeing support or coaching rather than a substitute for licensed mental health treatment. If located in the European Union, data will be processed in compliance with the UK GDPR and any applicable EU data protection standards.

Integrative care and online therapeutic options

Paulina works using an integrative counselling approach that brings together different perspectives to meet each client’s unique needs. This approach blends attention to thoughts, emotions, bodily experience, and deeper personal values to support healing from issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and major life changes.

In addition, Paulina applies evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide practical change and symptom relief. These techniques emphasise clear goals, gradual skill-building, and collaborative reflection to help clients manage stress, reduce overwhelm, and rebuild routines and relationships affected by loss or trauma.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. Paulina works with each client to identify their priorities, preferences, and goals, and she adjusts methods as the relationship evolves so the therapy remains relevant and effective for the person in front of her.

Online therapy with Paulina is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to access regular support from a registered professional without travel, and they allow the therapeutic work to continue from whatever environment feels most manageable for the client.
