Renata Juraske , NCPS

Renata Juraske is an integrative counsellor based in Dungannon, Northern Ireland, who draws on multiple therapeutic traditions to support people facing stress, anxiety, depression, loss and relationship challenges. With five years of experience, she works with a broad range of concerns including grief, addictions, trauma and abuse, eating difficulties, parenting struggles, anger and self-esteem issues. Her practice also focuses on attachment and abandonment issues, body image and codependency, family-of-origin dynamics, and life transitions such as divorce and career change.

As an integrative practitioner Renata blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral and psychodynamic techniques to tailor support to each person’s needs rather than applying a single approach to everyone. She holds the NCPS credential - a professional counselling designation - and uses this training to help clients develop healthier coping skills and practical tools for everyday life. Her aim is for clients to leave therapy better equipped to manage challenges and to become their own source of support.

Renata offers sessions in English and Lithuanian and practices from the United Kingdom. She is not currently accepting clients, but her approach emphasizes respect, collaboration and adapting methods to fit individual comfort and goals.

Integrative approaches for online therapy

Renata draws on client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to shape online sessions that address both emotional experience and practical coping. Client-centered therapy focuses on creating an accepting, empathetic space where clients can explore feelings and personal values - it helps with identity concerns, self-esteem and relationship issues. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) targets patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to anxiety, depression and habits, offering concrete tools to change unhelpful responses.

She also integrates psychodynamic ideas to explore how past relationships and family patterns influence current reactions, which can be useful for attachment difficulties, recurring relationship problems and deeper emotional themes. Choosing the right approach is part of the process - Renata works collaboratively with clients to identify goals and to blend methods that best fit their needs and preferences.

Online therapy with licensed professionals offers flexibility and accessibility, allowing sessions by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to accommodate schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain consistency in therapy and to apply new skills between sessions, while enabling therapists to tailor the pace and format to each person’s life.
