About Assunta
Assunta Mariosa is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and eating concerns. She also supports people facing depression and related issues like panic attacks and isolation. She speaks English and Italian and practises from the United Kingdom.
Assunta uses straightforward, person-focused conversations to help people talk through difficult feelings. Sessions aim to be non-judgemental and calm so clients can name what’s troubling them. She invites small, manageable steps rather than big leaps, so progress feels realistic.
Background and approach
Her work blends attachment-based ideas with client-centred listening and cognitive behavioural techniques. That mix helps people understand relationship patterns, increases self-compassion, and offers practical tools to change unhelpful thoughts and habits. Assunta draws on four years of professional experience in the UK and is listed with BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
Typical topics she addresses include abandonment and attachment issues, body image and self-love, communication and control problems, grief after separation, guilt and shame, and questions about life purpose. She also works with men’s issues and midlife transitions, plus post-traumatic stress and recovery after abuse. Sessions can feel warm and down-to-earth.
The focus is on what the person wants to change and clear steps to get there. People often start by sharing what they hope to gain, then build on that across sessions.

How her approaches work online
Attachment-based work focuses on how early and important relationships shape current patterns. It helps people notice how they relate to others and grow more supported in contact and closeness. Client-Centred Therapy centres on listening and acceptance so the person feels heard and can find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) offers practical steps to change thinking patterns and behaviours that keep problems going.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, then suggest which methods to try. Decisions are collaborative and can change as the work moves forward to better fit what helps most.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people keep face-to-face contact from different places. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to use a camera. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to fit short check-ins into a busy day or to write thoughts down between sessions. These options help people access therapy even when travel or schedules make in-person sessions difficult.
