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 thoughts and feelings. Assunta speaks English and Italian, so she can support speakers of either language.
Assunta gives space for people to tell their story at their own pace. She aims to create an atmosphere where clients feel heard and understood.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what matters most to the person in front of her. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This can help with issues like abandonment, attachment worries and problems with trust.
Assunta also uses client-centred techniques that prioritise the person’s own goals and perspectives. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to spot unhelpful thinking and test out different coping strategies. That practical work often helps with panic attacks, anxiety and low mood.
Assunta blends these methods to match each person’s needs. Her background includes four years of professional experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown as BACP. She accepts international clients and offers sessions in several formats to suit different lifestyles.

Approaches Assunta lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Client-centred therapy puts the person’s priorities at the centre. The therapist listens without judgement and follows the client’s goals. This approach supports people who need space to make sense of their emotions and decide what they want to change.
Cognitive behavioural techniques look at thoughts, feelings and behaviours in simple, practical steps. Online sessions can include short exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and try new coping strategies, which often helps with anxiety, panic and low mood.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Assunta will discuss options and decide with each person which methods suit their needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative process means the plan can change as progress is made.
Online formats offer flexibility for different routines. Video calls let people see facial cues and do longer sessions. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a lunch break. Live chat and text messaging suit brief check-ins or for people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care when life is busy or travel is difficult.
