Blanka Siejek

I currently have availability for new clients.

I offer flexible appointment slots Monday to Friday, across daytime and evening hours, both in-person in central Brighton & Hove and online across the UK.

If you are considering starting therapy, you are welcome to contact me to arrange a free 15-minute phone or video consultation. This gives us an opportunity to discuss what brings you to counselling and see if my approach aligns with what you are looking for.

I'm an integrative counsellor, and I adapt my approach to what works for you rather than following one fixed method. My core areas are ADHD and neurodivergence, trauma and C-PTSD, and addiction recovery.

My work with ADHD and neurodivergent adults draws on both professional training and lived experience. My trauma work is grounded in trauma-informed practice and the Rewind Technique, which processes PTSD and C-PTSD without asking you to relive or retell what happened. My work in addiction recovery is backed by hands-on experience in a Brighton recovery service, alongside my membership of Addiction Professionals. 

Beyond these core areas, I frequently help clients navigate anxiety, low mood, self-esteem issues and relationship struggles.

Before training as a therapist, I spent years in corporate marketing, which is partly why I understand burnout and career transitions from the inside. Having experienced how grounding therapy can be in my own life, I retrained to offer that same anchor to others.

Whatever brings you here, we'll work at your pace to make sense of what's keeping you stuck and find a way forward.

Therapy with me is relational and collaborative. Rather than trying to fix you or tell you what to do, we work together to understand your internal world, make sense of past experiences, and explore possibilities for moving forward.

As an integrative counsellor, I draw on person-centred empathy, psychodynamic insight, and practical tools. I'm committed to ongoing training and I'm currently studying the foundations of neuroscience through HarvardX. 

I work with adults across several core areas:

• ADHD & Neurodivergence: Offering neuro-affirming therapy tailored to adults navigating executive dysfunction, sensory overload, and burnout. For those with a late diagnosis, we work on unmasking and self-discovery, exploring who you are beyond survival strategies and integrating your true needs, strengths, and identity.

• Trauma, PTSD & C-PTSD: Gently processing single-event and complex trauma. I am trained in the Rewind Technique, a specialised trauma intervention that treats flashbacks and intrusive memories without requiring you to disclose or re-tell the details of the traumatic event to me. 

• Addiction Recovery: Exploring the root causes of compulsive behaviours in a compassionate, non-judgmental environment. Beyond stopping a behaviour, we focus on rebuilding a meaningful, fulfilling life and restoring connection with yourself and others. 

• Anxiety, Self-Esteem & Relationship Issues: Supporting you through anxiety, low mood, overthinking and low self-esteem, as well as life transitions, boundary-setting and relationship dynamics.

Starting therapy can feel daunting, so I aim to make the initial process as clear and straightforward as possible. Here is what starting therapy with me looks like:

Step 1: Free 15-Minute Consultation

We begin with a free, informal phone or video call. This gives us a chance to introduce ourselves, briefly discuss what brings you to therapy, and answer any questions you have about how I work. There is no obligation to proceed after this call.

Step 2: Initial Assessment Session (50 minutes)

If we decide to go ahead, our first full session focuses on an assessment and goal setting. During this time, we explore your personal history, your current difficulties, and what you hope to gain from therapy.

Step 3: Ongoing Weekly Sessions

We establish a regular time slot each week, creating a consistent, dedicated space where you can slow down, process what you are carrying, and work toward sustainable change.
