About Gina
Gina Hossu is a counsellor with 15 years' experience who uses practical, evidence-informed approaches to help people manage stress and anxiety. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and offers straightforward support for everyday struggles. Her style is warm and down-to-earth, with an emphasis on clear steps people can try between sessions.
Gina draws on cognitive behavioural therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and test new ways of responding.
Background and approach
She also uses acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and increase tolerance for difficult feelings. Sessions focus on small, realistic changes that fit around work and family life. Clients come with a wide range of concerns including depression, relationship strain, anger, grief, trauma, addiction and burnout.
Gina also supports people coping with sleep or eating difficulties, chronic illness, caregiving stress and issues around intimacy and self‑esteem. She will work with people facing life transitions such as separation, career shifts or bereavement. Her approach is collaborative and person-centred.
That means sessions are shaped around what each person needs, rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. Gina aims to build practical skills and clearer thinking so people can manage day-to-day pressures more effectively. Gina offers sessions by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, and she can work with international clients who speak English.
Costs vary by location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, users complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session.
How Gina’s approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice unhelpful patterns, clarify what matters to them, and take small actions in line with those values. It is useful for anxiety, stress and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps people spot and test the thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going, and then practise alternative responses. This approach often helps with anxiety, low mood and sleep issues. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships affect current patterns and helps people build more supported ways of relating and managing emotion, which can be helpful for intimacy and relationship problems.Finding the best approach is part of the work. Gina will talk with each person about goals, preferences and how they respond to different ideas. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made, so therapy stays relevant and practical.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and screen-sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions can be a good shorter option or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer typing, want shorter check-ins, or need flexibility around work and daily routines. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives while keeping the focus on useful strategies and steady progress.
