Rosa Tomassi-Bella, BACP

Rosa Tomassi-Bella is a UK-based counsellor who offers compassionate support to people navigating difficult life moments. She specialises in helping clients work through stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma, abuse, grief, and loss, providing a steady, emotionally attuned presence as clients explore what feels heavy or uncertain.

Her academic background includes a BSc in Psychology with Neuropsychology and an MSc in Clinical and Health Psychology. While she does not practice as a psychologist, these degrees give her a strong understanding of how mental and physical processes interact and inform the thoughtful, person-centred care she offers.

Rosa practices from a person-centred perspective, meeting each individual where they are and valuing lived experience, identity, and personal values. Her work emphasises relational depth - the meaningful therapeutic connection that fosters trust, understanding, and gradual growth. Sessions are collaborative and paced to suit each client, with space to pause, reflect, and shape the process in ways that feel manageable.

Through online therapy she provides flexible options for reflection and healing across cultures and borders. She also offers optional reflective tools such as worksheets and journaling prompts, designed to be gentle and adaptable to individual needs. Rosa focuses on accompanying clients with care, respect, and curiosity as they work toward clarity, resilience, and greater self-compassion.

Approaches that guide online relational work

Client-centred therapy focuses on the person's own perspective and experience, offering a non-judgemental space where the client’s values and choices shape the pace and direction of work; this approach is helpful for building self-understanding, self-esteem, and dealing with life transitions. Attachment-based therapy examines patterns of relating and emotional bonds formed in relationships, helping people explore how past and present attachments affect current stress, intimacy, and relationship difficulties. Mindfulness therapy introduces simple, present-focused practices and reflective tools to help manage anxiety, stress, and overwhelming emotions while promoting clearer emotional regulation and moment-to-moment awareness.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Rosa works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She draws on relational and person-centred principles to adapt techniques so they feel manageable and meaningful for each individual.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, and options such as live chat or text-based messaging allow support to fit around work, family, or travel. These formats make it easier to access regular, ongoing therapy and to continue care across different locations and life circumstances.
