About Assunta
Assunta Mariosa is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, eating concerns and depression. She uses a warm, non-judgemental manner to make it easier to talk about painful experiences. Assunta speaks English and Italian and brings four years of professional experience to her work.
She aims to create an open space where clients can share thoughts and feelings without feeling judged.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on listening, making sense of what’s happening now, and finding small practical steps forward. The emphasis is on steady progress rather than quick fixes. Assunta draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns.
She also uses client-centred ways of working to follow the client’s pace and priorities. Cognitive behavioural techniques are offered when useful to address unhelpful thinking and behaviour. People come with a wide range of concerns such as abandonment, body image, communication problems, control issues and guilt or shame.
She also supports those dealing with panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, isolation, life purpose questions and midlife challenges. Sessions are tailored to the person’s needs rather than a single method. Therapy is provided through a subscription model that you can cancel at any time.
Sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and preferences.

How counselling approaches work online
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships affect current patterns. It helps people understand why they might react strongly to closeness or rejection and supports building healthier ways of relating. Client-centred therapy centres the person and their experience, giving them space to lead sessions while the counsellor offers empathy and acceptance. This approach is useful for people who need a calm, steady process to make sense of feelings. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviours that keep problems going; it is often used for anxiety, panic and low mood.Finding the right approach is part of therapy itself. Assunta will work collaboratively to see what fits your needs, goals and preferences. She will listen to what matters to you and adjust methods over time rather than sticking to a single plan.
Online therapy makes it easier to fit counselling into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that feels important. Phone sessions can be quicker and need less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins, people who prefer writing, or sessions that fit into a work break. These options offer flexibility so therapy can continue even when travel or timing would otherwise get in the way.
