About Piotr

Piotr Slaczka is a counsellor with ten years of clinical experience based in the United Kingdom. He holds a BACP credential and draws on several therapeutic models when helping people. Piotr aims for a respectful and compassionate space where people can begin to untangle difficult emotions and reactions.

Piotr uses an integrative style that adapts to each person's needs. He combines practical tools and reflective conversation to address problems such as stress, anxiety, depression and addictions. He also supports people with relationship and intimacy-related issues, grief, sleeping and eating difficulties, and anger concerns.

Sessions focus on identifying patterns that cause pain and on building small, achievable changes. Piotr talks through options like problem-focused exercises, values-based work and exploring attachment dynamics. He encourages practical steps people can try between sessions to test what helps.

He is experienced working with a wide range of difficulties, including ADHD, bipolar mood challenges, chronic pain and issues that stem from family of origin and abandonment. Piotr also offers support around substance and behavioural addictions, codependency and recovery after domestic violence or separation.

Piotr sees therapy as a collaborative process. He works in English and Polish and accepts international clients. To begin, prospective clients are invited to use the site’s Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire.

Background and approach: Piotr trained in systemic and integrative approaches, holding a master’s degree in systemic psychotherapy, an honours degree in integrative counselling and a diploma in humanistic counselling. He brings a client-centred stance alongside cognitive and acceptance-based methods to tailor work to each person’s goals.

How Piotr’s approaches translate to online work

Piotr uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside a client-centred stance. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match their values; it is useful for anxiety, stress and persistent patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship experiences shape responses to others and to conflict, which can help with intimacy issues, anger and relationship struggles. Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s own goals at the heart of each session and emphasises listening and empathy to help people find their own solutions.

Finding the right approach is usually part of the early conversations. Piotr works collaboratively to match methods to a person’s needs, goals and preferences, and he will suggest adjustments as therapy progresses. The aim is to try approaches that feel practical and relevant rather than imposing a single method.

The practical benefits of online work can make therapy easier to fit into busy lives. Online sessions can reduce travel time, allow a quicker check-in during a lunch break and offer options if a person is located far from the therapist. Because the profile did not list specific session formats, confirm the exact online or in-person options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can support people remotely, and the therapist will discuss the best arrangement to fit everyday routines and goals.
