Hi, I’m Izabela, from Mending-Minds.com, and I’m here to help you feel heard, understood, and supported. I offer online, telephone and messaging counselling here on the betterhelp platform, so that you can fit therapy around your busy life, whether you need to talk after work, on a lunch break, or from the comfort of your own home.
I am a fully accredited counsellor in the UK, registered with the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society. This registration ensures that I work to the highest ethical standards, prioritising your safety and well-being in every session. I believe in creating a safe, relaxed space where you can talk openly about what’s on your mind. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, dealing with loss, struggling with stress, or facing life’s challenges, we’ll work together to find the right path forward.
I’m not here to follow a script or stick to a rigid plan. Instead, I adapt my approach to suit your needs and what works best for you. It’s important to me that you feel in control of your therapy, so we’ll check in regularly to make sure you’re getting what you need from our sessions.
My goal is to help you navigate life's challenges in a way that feels right for you. I firmly believe that everyone’s journey is unique, and that’s why I take a flexible, client-centred approach, working alongside you to explore the tools and strategies that align best with your personal needs.
My clients often tell me they feel comfortable with me right away, and that’s something I’m proud of. My aim is to bring empathy, understanding, and kindness into every session.
I am genuinely excited to support you in discovering your strengths, overcoming obstacles, and fostering well-being in your life. So, If you feel ready to take that step, and are ready to talk, I am ready to listen.

Written on Aug 24, 2026 after therapy with Izabela for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, self esteem, anger management, and coping with life changes
I cannot thank Izabela enough for the service she has provided to me. When I first started better help I was a little apprehensive as I have tried many different kinds of therapy over the years but as I got more comfortable with Izabela, it only became easier for me to talk about my problems. The techniques and words of reassurance and encouragement taught me things and helped me persevere through important moments in my life that have happened recently. Izabela is kind, calm, thoughtful, honest, super experienced and so friendly!! I will always be grateful for her help over these past few months.

This is my first time using a therapist and I have to say so far Izabela has been great. She listens patiently as I air my concerns without interrupting despite me, even though I sometimes find myself rambling on in my haste to get everything out. She's very patient and understanding. Izabela is a great match for me.
