Julia Slek is a qualified counsellor based in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, United Kingdom, with 5 years of experience. She specialises in bereavement counselling and has supported clients and their families through loss, palliative care and life-limiting illness.
She is also trained to work with people experiencing anxiety, depression and a range of other challenges, including grief, stress, addictions, LGBT-related concerns, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, eating-related problems, anger and low self-esteem. As a person-centred counsellor she works from the belief that each person is the expert on their own life and offers a non-judgmental, supportive space to explore thoughts, emotions and behaviours.
Julia is a female therapist who is gay, non-religious and liberal. She offers in-person, online and phone sessions and is available on Mondays and Friday afternoons. Therapy is offered in English, Ukrainian and Russian.
For many common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties or navigating life changes, online therapy can be as effective as traditional face-to-face work. Evidence supports its usefulness for these everyday mental health and wellbeing issues, making it a viable option for people seeking help.
One of the main benefits is the flexibility it offers - clients can choose the format that suits them best, whether that is video calls, phone sessions, live chat or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule or to access support from different locations.
Therapists who offer online work are licensed professionals, and if someone feels another clinician would be a better fit they can switch at any time. Online therapy provides an accessible route to professional support while keeping the core therapeutic work focused on the person’s needs and goals.
