About Marcin

Marcin Maciejewski is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). He has five years of professional practice and over a decade of related experience in therapeutic settings. He aims to make the first steps into therapy less daunting and to offer practical help people can use day to day.

Marcin has worked around 3,000 hours directly supporting people with mental health struggles, and many more in adjacent roles such as academic mentoring and hospice care. He sees a wide range of concerns, including depression, trauma and relationship difficulties, and he also supports people coping with grief and big life changes.

His approach draws on several evidence-based therapeutic techniques. In sessions he focuses on building trust, clear communication and mutual understanding so clients can try tools that suit them. He often uses worksheets, mood charts and journalling to help people track progress and practise new skills between sessions.

Marcin also offers mindfulness, movement and creative ways of working, alongside family mapping tools such as genograms to look at family patterns. He explains techniques plainly and encourages clients to pick what fits their life and goals.

He maintains regular supervision with two supervisors and takes part in peer groups within the Gestalt community. He has experience with issues related to abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment, body image, caregiver stress and several other complex difficulties.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Marcin draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that emphasise the relationship between counsellor and client. One approach he uses focuses on mindfulness and present-moment awareness to help manage stress, mood and intrusive thoughts by building simple daily practices.

Another strand of his work uses person-centred and Gestalt ideas which prioritise the client's experience in the room and practical experiments to notice patterns, feelings and bodily signals. These methods can help with grief, relationship patterns and issues around attachment.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. He will talk with the client about goals and preferences, then try tools and exercises together to see what helps. Approaches can be adapted as therapy progresses to match changing needs.

If you are considering online therapy, please confirm which session formats are offered before booking because the biography does not list them explicitly. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work and family commitments, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Talk with him about practical arrangements so sessions suit your schedule and everyday life.
