Hello, my name is Rossana and welcome.
I am an experienced psychotherapeutic counsellor, and organisational coach. Whether you have had therapy before or it is your first time, I am here to support your journey in a highly confidential and empathetic space.
How I work
My work draws on transactional analysis, psychoanalytic, psychodynamic and relational approaches to psychotherapy, to help individuals identify and change repetitive patterns in their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. I work in depth on a range of issues, from anxiety to childhood and trauma.
Our work may be short or longer-term, based on your needs. At the heart of therapy is our relationship, so knowing what you are looking for is key. It may be useful asking yourself these questions before we start: why therapy, and why now? What am I prepared to do to achieve my goal? What do I need from my therapist?
What I offer
I believe that we are fundamentally OK.
Whether it is individual, couples, or family therapy, you can expect me to be an active partner in our journey together, offering both support and gentle challenges to help you make real changes. You can feel comforted by a non-judgmental approach and a little humour, while we explore together options that are different from your presenting ones.
Who I work with
I work with individuals, professionals, and couples who are seeking a confidential space to explore various areas including, but not limited to, the following:
- anxiety
- bereavement and loss
- childhood issues and trauma
- abuse
- sexual and relationship issues
- long-term illness and medical concerns
- identity and LGBTQA+
- life and career transitions
- substance use including chemsex
- self-esteem
- stress
- depression.
I also work with people who are looking for a new start, and are open to change and self-understanding.
Young adults (18+), adults, older adults.
Background
I worked for a variety of counselling and psychotherapeutic services organisations, with a particular focus on bereavement, substance use, chemsex and harm reduction support. I also worked for mental health services helping clients with diverse presentations (e.g.schizophrenia, psychosis).
Before training as a psychotherapist, I worked for over 15 years in global corporate environments across different countries, developing ad-hoc leadership and executive leadership development solutions. Alongside my psychotherapy practice, I work as an executive coach, and served as a board member of ICF (International Coaching Federation) from 2022 to 2024.
My journey into therapy began as a result of unhealthy relational patterns experienced throughout my childhood. That experience gave me motivation to support others as they navigate their own challenges, and I have been committed to this work ever since.
If you are interested in exploring how we can work together, feel free to schedule a consultation with me. I look forward to meeting you.
