About Marzena
Marzena Uphill is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. She works with people who bring stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family issues, grief, trauma and many life changes. She also supports concerns around self-esteem, intimacy, eating and sleeping problems, parenting pressures and career uncertainty.
Marzena encourages clients to build self-awareness and practical coping strategies. Sessions aim to help people understand patterns that keep them stuck and to find ways to respond differently. She frames clients as experts in their own lives while offering guidance and reflection.
Her practice draws on cognitive behavioural ideas and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help with anxious thoughts and to clarify values. Attachment-based concepts are used when early relationships affect current connections and intimacy. She also uses client-centred methods to listen closely and work at the client’s pace.
Marzena has a particular interest in abandonment and attachment issues, body image and control problems. She also supports people facing chronic illness, caregiver stress, cancer-related worries, fertility concerns and the emotional impact of separation or domestic violence.
Sessions are offered in English and Polish. She accepts international clients but readers should check the current session options before booking. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled via the online booking flow.
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Marzena uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice and accept difficult thoughts and feelings, while clarifying what matters most to them and taking small actions in that direction. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections, and can help with intimacy, abandonment concerns and communication problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marzena will discuss different methods with the client and decide together which feels most useful. This is a collaborative process that takes account of the client’s goals, preferences and the problem they want to address.
The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy into a busy week and cutting travel time. Different formats may suit different needs, so confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to have shorter check-ins, to join sessions across time zones, or to continue work when life circumstances change. Registered or accredited professionals can explain which format will best support the client’s aims during the initial booking steps.
