Stefania Rossi is a counsellor based in Bedfordshire who offers one-to-one therapy for adults. She holds BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) membership, and has six years of experience working with a wide range of emotional and relational issues. Sessions are 45 minutes long and open-ended, and she works with people aged 18 and over.

Her style is integrative with a humanistic ethos, which means she draws on several approaches to suit each person. She uses person-centred ideas to create a respectful, listening space. She also works with psychodynamic and existential themes when exploring life meaning, identity or repeating relationship patterns.

Stefania has a Level 5 Certificate in Relational Counselling from Relate and follows the BACP Ethical Framework for Good Practice in Counselling and Psychotherapy. She has regular supervision, continues professional development, an up-to-date DBS Enhanced Certificate, and professional insurance.

Clients commonly bring concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy-related issues, self-esteem and coping with life changes. She also supports people dealing with attachment and abandonment issues, body image, caregiver strain, chronic illness and pain, communication and control problems, and separation or divorce.

Stefania offers sessions in English and Italian and works nationally via video platforms. An initial telephone consultation is available to ask questions and agree the best way forward before starting therapy.

Approaches that inform online counselling

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationships shape current ways of connecting. It can help when attachment patterns cause anxiety, fear of abandonment or repeated relationship problems. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, non-judgemental space where the person’s own goals guide the work; it often helps with self-esteem, decision-making and emotional expression. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) examines links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical ways to try different responses to anxiety or unhelpful thinking.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify which methods fit your needs, goals and preferences. That may mean trying different ways of working in early sessions and agreeing together what helps most.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and the ability to join sessions without travelling. Because Stefania works nationally via video platforms, sessions can fit around work, study or caring responsibilities.
