About Rosa

Rosa Tomassi-Bella is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma and loss. She offers a calm, person-centred way of working that aims to make clients feel heard and respected. Her BACP accreditation is listed as a professional credential.

She trained academically in psychology, gaining a BSc in Psychology with Neuropsychology and an MSc in Clinical and Health Psychology. Rosa does not practise as a psychologist, but she uses what she learned to inform how she listens and plans sessions.

Background and approach

This background helps her link everyday feelings to how the body and mind interact. In sessions she draws on person-centred thinking and attachment-based ideas to focus on the relationship between client and counsellor. She pays attention to lived experience, identity and personal values.

Conversations are paced to suit each client, with time for reflection rather than rushing to solutions. Rosa also uses trauma-focused and mindfulness approaches when these fit a person’s needs. She offers reflective tools such as worksheets and journaling prompts to support work between sessions.

These resources are optional and adapted to feel manageable. Online work is part of her practice, and she accepts clients across cultures and borders. Sessions are collaborative and gentle, aimed at helping people find clarity, build resilience and treat themselves with more self-compassion.

Rosa emphasises listening, respect and curiosity throughout the process.

Ways of working Rosa names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Approaches that suit online therapy and trauma work

Rosa uses trauma-focused therapy to help people process difficult memories and strong emotional reactions. This approach focuses on understanding how past events affect current feelings and coping, and it is often used when people feel stuck by what has happened to them.

She also draws on attachment-based therapy, which looks at how early relationships shape current ways of relating. This can help people who notice repeated patterns in relationships or who want to feel safer connecting with others. In addition, her person-centred approach prioritises the client’s perspective, giving space for reflection and pacing the work to each person’s comfort.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Rosa works collaboratively to decide what to try, discussing goals, preferences and what feels manageable. She treats tools like mindfulness exercises or journaling as optional and adapts them to each person’s rhythm.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text work well for shorter check-ins or when typing feels better than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, travel or daily life.
