Welcome to Counselling by Krasna

I provide confidential and professional counselling services for individuals and families, in both English and Croatian.

As someone born into Croatian heritage, I proudly carry the name Krasna, a gift from my beloved parents. It is a privilege to be able to support clients in both languages and connect through shared cultural understanding.

My counselling approach is deeply grounded in personal experience. Having navigated the profound challenges of grief and loss while raising a young family, I bring compassion and insight into the emotional toll that life transitions can take. I understand how grief, depression, and emotional overwhelm can impact every part of our being, leaving us feeling disconnected, hopeless, or lost.

Through years of self-reflection and healing, I have found a place of acceptance and peace. It is from this place that I hold space for others on their own journey. I believe every person has within them the capacity for resilience, self-love, and renewal.

My practice offers a warm, safe, and non-judgmental environment, where clients are free to express themselves fully and explore what matters most to them. Together, we work to gently uncover what’s causing emotional distress and support each client in moving toward their preferred future.

I work with adults of all ages and offer support for a range of challenges, including:

1. Relationship difficulties and parenting

2. Grief and loss

3. Anxiety and emotional overwhelm

4. Depression and emotional regulation

5. Health-related distress and burnout

Before entering the field of counselling, I spent many years working in Human Resources, where I developed strong skills in conflict resolution and anger management - skills I continue to draw on in my practice today.

My work is guided by a client-centred and integrative approach, drawing from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), and Mindfulness-based compassionate practices. I tailor support to meet each client’s unique needs and preferences, walking alongside them with empathy, care, and respect.

Warmest of regards,

Krasna
