Marcin Maciejewski , BACP

Marcin Maciejewski is a UK-based counsellor with five years of professional practice and more than a decade of experience in related therapeutic settings. He brings roughly 3,000 hours of direct client work together with over twice that amount of experience in fields such as academic mentoring, institutional care and hospice support. His practice focuses on relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, depression and coping with major life changes, and he also works with issues including abandonment, attachment difficulties, body image concerns, caregiver stress, dissociation and family of origin problems.

Marcin integrates several therapeutic modalities into his work - drawing on person-centred, existential, MCBT, Focusing, intersubjectivity and Gestalt approaches - with an emphasis on building a trusting therapeutic relationship as the foundation for change. He uses practical tools agreed with each client, such as worksheets, mood charts, journalling, mindfulness practice, genograms, movement and embodiment and creative expression to help people apply insights in everyday life. Marcin maintains ongoing professional development and receives oversight from two supervisors as well as peer support within his Gestalt community.

He is a member of the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and communicates in English. Marcin is not currently accepting new clients, and he works with international clients when availability allows. Having experienced therapy himself, he aims to offer a supportive, understanding space for people ready to take a next step toward wellbeing.

Working with Person-Centred and Experiential Methods Online

Marcin draws on person-centred work and Gestalt-informed practices to support clients in building awareness and making meaningful changes. Person-centred therapy focuses on creating an accepting, non-judgmental environment that helps people explore emotions and values at their own pace - it is often helpful for depression, relationship difficulties and coping with life transitions. Gestalt approaches emphasise present-moment experience and embodiment, encouraging clients to notice patterns in thoughts, feelings and bodily responses and to experiment with new ways of relating - this can help with issues such as attachment, dissociation and identity concerns. He also uses Focusing techniques that guide attention to felt-sense experiences to access deeper, often non-verbal understanding that can support processing trauma or grief.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Marcin works collaboratively with each person to identify methods that fit their needs, goals and preferences. He adapts tools and practices over time so therapy remains practical and applicable to daily life.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for people balancing work, caregiving or mobility constraints. These formats make it easier to access regular support from licensed professionals and to continue therapy from different locations, while still focusing on building a strong therapeutic relationship and practical progress.
