About Peter

Peter Borowiec is a BACP counsellor who offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, grief, anger and family or relationship concerns. He works from a person-centred stance and supports people through life changes, questions of identity including LGBT issues, and challenges related to chronic illness or pain.

He prefers a simple approach in sessions. He listens closely and follows the pace the person sets. He avoids telling people what to do and instead helps them identify their own strengths and next steps. That makes sessions feel more like a steady conversation than a lesson.

Peter has seven years' experience in a mix of settings such as charity work and academic environments. He brings that background into sessions through a calm, curious manner and an interest in how wider social issues shape personal experience. He is based in the United Kingdom and works in English.

People meeting him can expect to talk about feelings, recurring patterns, and the stories they tell about themselves. He also explores how issues like guilt, shame, life purpose and long-term health can affect mood and relationships. The emphasis is on practical, person-led exploration rather than labels or quick fixes.

Those who want to begin are asked to follow the platform's matching and booking steps. Sessions use a cancellable subscription model that varies by location and therapist availability.

How person-centred work translates to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on offering an accepting, non-judgemental space where the person leads the conversation. In this approach the counsellor listens openly, reflects what is heard and helps people access their own strengths and choices. It is often useful for worries like anxiety, depression, self-esteem and adapting to life changes.

Finding the right way of working is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the person to decide how therapy should be shaped, based on their needs, goals and daily life. That collaborative approach helps tailor sessions so they feel practical and relevant.

The original profile does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Many people value online work because it can fit more easily into busy schedules, remove travel time and make it simpler to check in between commitments. Online sessions can also allow for shorter or more flexible appointments when that helps someone keep going with therapy.
