Erika Colussi Bellmont

Erika Colussi Bellmont is a counsellor who helps people work through relationship problems, trauma and abuse, intimacy concerns, low self-esteem, depression, anxiety and stress. She also supports those facing addictions, grief, eating and sleeping difficulties, ADHD, and identity or LGBT matters. Erika speaks English and Spanish and works with people from diverse cultural backgrounds.

She is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, known as BACP. Erika uses an integrative style, drawing on different approaches to find what fits each person. Sessions focus on understanding emotions and patterns that may be getting in the way of everyday life.

Erika often pays attention to attachment issues and how early relationships affect current connections. She works relationally and collaboratively, helping people gain insight into past and present influences. The aim is to increase resilience and support steps toward change.

In sessions she reflects what clients bring and offers different perspectives. She does not give direct advice but suggests practical coping ideas when helpful. Her way of working is non-judgemental and respectful of each person's values and culture.

Erika has three years' experience and currently works in an intercultural therapy centre supporting people who face cultural or language barriers to getting help. She invites people to explore feelings and make choices that suit their lives.

How Erika's approaches translate to online work

Erika draws on Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy and psychodynamic ideas to shape her work. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current bonds and can help with intimacy and trust issues. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and acceptance so people feel understood and can explore their own solutions. Psychodynamic approaches look at unconscious patterns and past experiences to help make sense of recurring difficulties.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Erika will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and together you will decide which methods to try. She adapts her style as the work progresses so the approach stays relevant to what you want to achieve.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the exact formats available before booking. Many people find online work helps fit therapy into busy lives, making it easier to schedule around work, childcare or travel. Online meetings can reduce the need to travel, allow shorter check-ins when needed and make it simpler to see a therapist who speaks your language or understands your cultural background.
