About Antonella

Antonella Mezzasalma is a counsellor who uses practical, evidence-based approaches to help people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. She works in English and Italian and brings three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. Antonella emphasises strengths and personal choice when people begin therapy.

She believes clients know their own story and can build on existing resources. Sessions focus on small, manageable steps rather than overwhelming change.

Background and approach

Antonella aims to support people who feel stuck, offering clear tools and steady encouragement. Her work draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy. These methods help with unhelpful thoughts, emotional regulation and making values-based choices.

Internal Family Systems ideas can also be used to understand different parts of experience. Typical concerns addressed include coping with life changes, relationship and intimacy-related issues, attachment and communication problems, and experiences of isolation or grief. She also helps with concerns like body image, codependency, control issues and obsessive-compulsive symptoms.

Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging so people can choose what feels most practical. Antonella describes therapy as a collaborative process where the client sets goals and she offers tools and support along the way.

How Antonella’s approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, then choose actions that match what matters most. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and finding direction during life changes.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on understanding how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and teaches practical techniques to break unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression and obsessive-compulsive difficulties.

Finding the right approach is a shared task. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then try methods together and adjust as needed. Sessions are collaborative so clients shape the plan as work progresses.

Online therapy makes it easier to fit counselling into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual connection helps. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or for a simpler check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging offer flexibility for shorter updates or when typing feels easier. These options help people access consistent support from home, work or elsewhere without long travel.
