About me

Agnieszka Marszewska

Psychotherapist · MA, MBACP (Accred)

I am a psychotherapist offering in-person psychotherapy and counselling in West London, and online via Zoom. I hold a Master’s degree in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy, and have experience working in private practice, for the NHS and in the charity sector.

Over the years I gained experience as a therapist within the NHS and charity setting, where I supported a range of diverse clients of different backgrounds, age groups, and presentations.

For 8 years, I worked at a school for children and young people with autism. My role there as a Teacher and Yoga/Mindfulness Facilitator was part of the Occupational Therapy programme and reached out to students, teachers, and parents supporting them in difficult times.

The holistic approach of yoga and meditation enriched my life and therapeutic practice. It helps me to be truly present with my clients. I also believe that the mind/body connection is an inherent part of our well-being and needs to be tended to.

I am an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and a fully insured private practitioner.

My approach

A human connection, built on attunement and trust

I am a qualified integrative/relational counsellor. It means that I am trained in a variety of psychotherapeutic approaches – humanistic, psychodynamic, and cognitive-behavioural. It allows me to help clients according to their unique needs. I believe that human behaviour is best understood by looking at the whole person individually, and there is no one method which holds an answer. Most importantly, I emphasise building a human connection, where a deep level of attunement and trust is established.

Reaching out for help can mean that you feel anxious, lost, burnt out, ‘not enough’… Therapy could help to reframe the way you think, feel, or behave. I see therapeutic change as the process of bringing into awareness, exploring, understanding, and most importantly accepting different aspects of the self. This way life can be lived more authentically, meaningfully, and creatively. At the foundation of my work lies a mindful and compassionate inquiry into relationships we have with ourselves and with others. I have an interest in how these relational challenges stem from early experiences.

I provide an empathetic, non-discriminatory, and attentive environment for you to share whatever it is that's on your mind. I believe in the healing power of being truly seen, heard, and understood, and as a therapist, I intend to facilitate it. Our work will be collaborative with full respect for your autonomy. My clients matter to me deeply, and I am passionate about what I do.
