About Assunta
Assunta Mariosa is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, eating concerns and depression. She also focuses on issues such as abandonment, attachment, body image and panic attacks, helping people who feel stuck or overwhelmed by these problems.
Assunta uses straightforward, talk-based work. She leans on approaches that pay attention to how early relationships shape current patterns, the client's own perspective, and practical thinking tools. Sessions typically involve talking through recent events, noticing patterns in relationships, and trying small changes to thinking or behaviour.
She aims to be clear about what happens in sessions and to help people feel understood while they sort things out. Assunta supports people dealing with guilt, shame, loneliness, and confusion about life direction. She also addresses communication problems, control issues and separation-related distress.
Assunta works in English and Italian and accepts international clients. Her background includes four years of clinical practice in the UK and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Costs vary with location and are charged via a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Assunta draws on Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in her work. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and helps with issues like abandonment, trust and closeness. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s own perspective, giving space to talk and be heard without pressure. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) uses practical techniques to notice unhelpful thoughts and try alternative responses to reduce anxiety and panic.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Assunta aims to collaborate with each person to identify what fits their needs, goals and preferences. That may mean combining ways of working rather than using a single method from the start.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm which online options are currently offered before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around study, work or busy days, and they can reduce travel time and disruption. Some formats can be shorter check-ins or audio-only options which are useful when bandwidth or quiet time is limited. Registered or accredited professionals will work with you to match a practical arrangement that fits everyday life.
