Therapeutic approaches applied to online work

Magdalena commonly blends Existential Therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people who are wrestling with meaning, values, and difficult emotions. Existential work focuses on questions about purpose, choice, and how to live with uncertainty, and it can help when a person feels stuck or directionless. ACT emphasizes noticing thoughts and feelings while taking steps aligned with personal values, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and life changes.

She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how past relationships shape present patterns. That approach helps people understand recurring interaction styles and practice new ways of relating that feel safer and more satisfying. Magdalena frames this exploration in a collaborative way and checks in with clients about what feels most useful for them. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Magdalena will listen to your goals, try methods that match your needs, and adjust the plan based on what helps. The process is collaborative and practical, with room to test different strategies and see what fits your life. Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for a face-to-face feel and richer interaction, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and text or chat can work for brief check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and varied schedules.
