About Rosa
Rosa Tomassi-Bella is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship difficulties.

Rosa trained in psychology and holds a BSc in Psychology with Neuropsychology and an MSc in Clinical and Health Psychology. She does not practice as a psychologist, but her studies inform how she listens and formulates helpful questions.
Background and approach
This background supports the person-centred way she works. Her practice emphasises the therapeutic relationship. She uses person-centred principles to make sure clients feel heard and respected.
That approach is combined with psychodynamic ideas and attention to attachment patterns when helpful. Rosa also draws on mindfulness and Jungian perspectives to support self-reflection and emotional regulation. She offers reflective tools such as worksheets and journalling prompts to use between sessions, always optional and adapted to the individual.
Online sessions are offered across borders in English, with formats that include video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging. Payment works via a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and sessions are scheduled according to therapist availability.
Approaches for online therapy and connection
Rosa integrates person-centred work with attachment-informed thinking to support online clients. Person-centred therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel understood and can lead the pace of their own work. It helps with issues like low self-esteem, life changes, anxiety, and relationships. Attachment-based ideas look at how early connection patterns influence current relationships and emotional responses, which can be useful for intimacy-related worries, abandonment concerns, and communication problems.She also uses mindfulness techniques to help people manage stress and stay present during difficult moments. Mindfulness practices can support emotional regulation and reduce rumination when anxiety or grief feel overwhelming. Rosa approaches choice of method collaboratively; she will help you decide which combination of approaches fits your needs, goals, and preferences as therapy unfolds.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different lifestyles. Video is useful for deeper exploration and visual connection, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins or times when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, travel, or family commitments while still working together on stress, anxiety, relationships, and other concerns.
