About Rosa
Rosa Tomassi-Bella welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression or life changes. She introduces a calm, steady presence and focuses on helping each person feel heard and understood. Sessions are guided by the client’s pace and priorities, with practical reflection and optional take-home tools to support progress.
Rosa trained academically in psychology, with a BSc in Psychology with Neuropsychology and an MSc in Clinical and Health Psychology.
Background and approach
She does not practise as a psychologist but draws on that background to inform her counselling. She holds BACP registration which she brings into her work as a counsellor. Her practice centres on person-centred values and relational depth.
That means the conversations aim to build trust and a meaningful connection, so clients can explore feelings about relationships, grief, trauma, self-esteem and intimacy. Rosa pays attention to how experiences shape emotional responses and everyday coping. Rosa also uses elements from attachment-focused and mindfulness-informed ways of working.
She offers reflective worksheets and journaling prompts alongside sessions when these are useful. These tools are optional and adapted to each person’s needs. Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and preferences.
Rosa works across cultures and borders and conducts therapy in English for both UK-based and international clients. Therapy with Rosa is collaborative and paced gently. People can expect straightforward conversations, practical reflections and a respectful space to think through difficult feelings and decisions.

Online support
She also uses client-centred ways of working which place the person’s experience at the heart of each session. That means conversations are led by the client’s concerns, with the counsellor offering attuned listening and gentle reflection to help make sense of difficult emotions.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Rosa will work collaboratively to explore which methods fit your needs, goals and preferences, and she adapts the pace and tools accordingly. Together you can try different ways of working and choose what feels most helpful.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat or messaging gives practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that matters. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat or messaging can be useful for brief check-ins, written reflection or when being on camera feels difficult. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, travel or busy family life.
