About Olenka
Olenka Hennessey is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with six years' experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and self-esteem difficulties, and life transitions including grief, trauma and parenting concerns.
She offers a collaborative, client-centred style. Sessions focus on listening, building understanding and helping people name their feelings. Olenka encourages practical steps to challenge self-limiting beliefs and increase self-awareness.
Her practice addresses a wide range of everyday problems. These include workplace strain, compassion fatigue, intimacy-related issues, sleeping and eating disturbances, and challenges linked to ADHD. She also supports people dealing with abandonment, attachment or blended family issues, communication problems and separation or infidelity.
Olenka draws on client-centred methods alongside mindfulness, motivational interviewing and solution-focused ideas. She uses these approaches to help people notice patterns, set achievable goals and try small changes between sessions. Conversations are aimed at clear tools and straightforward reflection rather than technical jargon.
Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and international clients are accepted. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and then schedules a first appointment. The focus in early meetings is practical: clarify what matters most and agree small next steps.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what a person brings. In online sessions this means the counsellor follows the person’s agenda, helps clarify feelings and supports their decisions. Mindfulness Therapy introduces simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and ground everyday thinking; these tools suit worries about sleep, anxiety and stress.Choosing methods is a collaborative process. The counsellor will discuss which approach or combination fits your aims and preferences. Together you will try techniques and adjust them if they do not feel useful, with regular check-ins about progress and goals.
The practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting meetings around work or family routines and removing travel time. Different session formats may be available, but the biography does not list specific options, so confirm current session formats before booking. Online work can allow shorter check-ins, quieter conversations on a break from the day, or paced sessions that focus on skill practice and goal setting.
