Stefania Rossi, BACP

Stefania Rossi is a Bedfordshire-based counsellor who provides therapy nationally through video platforms. She offers 45 minute one-to-one, open-ended sessions for young people aged 18 and older and for adults, tailoring the work to each person's needs and goals.

She is an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), which means she follows the BACP Ethical Framework, takes part in regular supervision, and undertakes continuing professional development. Stefania also holds an up-to-date DBS Enhanced Certificate and carries professional insurance. In addition, she has a Level 5 Certificate in Relational Counselling with Relate, reflecting specialist training in relationship-focused work.

Stefania practises from an integrative perspective with a humanistic ethos, drawing on Person Centred, Psychodynamic, and Existential approaches to match techniques to a client's preferred way of working. She begins with an initial telephone consultation to discuss questions and explore the best way forward before arranging ongoing sessions.

Her experience covers a wide range of presenting issues, including anxiety, attachment-related difficulties, bereavement, carer support, depression, domestic and emotional abuse, family and relationship problems, low self-confidence, separation and divorce, self-harm, stress, trauma, work-related stress, and other challenges such as body image, isolation, and life purpose.

Online approaches for attachment and relational work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns shape current feelings and behaviours. Online sessions can help people explore attachment-related worries such as abandonment, trust, and intimacy, and build clearer ways of relating to others.

Client-Centred Therapy emphasises a supportive, non-directive relationship where the therapist offers empathy and unconditional positive regard. This approach helps clients who want space to explore self-esteem, life purpose, and emotional processing at their own pace.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) works with patterns of thought and behaviour to reduce distress and improve coping. In an online setting CBT can be applied to anxiety, stress, and practical problem solving through collaborative exercises and planning.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Stefania works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts the work as therapy progresses.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging allow clients to access registered professionals from different locations and to choose formats that suit their schedules and comfort. This range of options supports consistent engagement and makes it easier to maintain therapy alongside everyday commitments.
