About Masamba
Masamba Juster is a counsellor with ten years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and depression. She aims to meet each person with respect, sensitivity and compassion.
Her style is straightforward and supportive when someone is nervous about starting therapy. Masamba tailors conversations and plans to each person's needs. She uses practical tools to help manage symptoms and to build clearer ways of coping.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on real-life goals such as sleeping better, reducing panic, handling loss, or dealing with relationship and intimacy concerns. Her work draws on approaches that help people name what happened to them and respond differently to painful memories.
She also uses methods that look at values and actions to support change, and approaches that pay attention to early attachment experiences and how they shape current relationships. Masamba has helped people with a wide range of concerns over her career. These include addictions, parenting stress, career worries, low self-esteem, anger, and compassion fatigue.
She also supports people affected by chronic illness, body image issues, adoption and foster care histories, and neurodiversity-related challenges. Sessions are available in English and can be arranged for international clients. When someone wishes to begin, they complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability.

Online approaches that focus on trauma and practical change
Masamba uses trauma-focused work to help people name and understand traumatic experiences and reduce the ways these memories shape day-to-day life. This approach helps when intrusive memories, flashbacks or avoidance get in the way of daily routines and relationships.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). ACT helps people clarify what matters to them and practise small actions that align with those values, even when uncomfortable thoughts or feelings are present. Attachment-Based Therapy is another part of her practice and looks at early relationship patterns to improve current connection and trust in relationships.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. Masamba will discuss options with each person, try methods that fit their goals, and adjust the plan if something is not helpful. She frames therapy as collaborative and practical, focusing on what the individual wants to change.
Online work is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video sessions allow the therapist and client to read facial cues and tone. Phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and messaging suit quick updates, brief coaching, or people who prefer writing over speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, travel or different time zones while keeping the focus on progress.
