(Maria) Asuncion Fernandez Hemoso helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, low self-esteem and depression.
About (Maria)
(Maria) Asuncion Fernandez Hemoso helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports those dealing with grief, relationship or intimacy issues, parenting strain, sleep and eating concerns, career stress, ADHD and compassion fatigue. Asuncion works with people around sexual orientation and LGBT concerns, and she can help people cope with life changes and bipolar symptoms.
She is named early so people know who they would meet.
Background and approach
Asuncion uses straightforward, practical conversations. She listens and asks questions to understand each person's story. Together they set clear goals and try methods that suit daily life.
Sessions aim to build skills people can use between meetings. She brings 14 years of experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, or BACP. That background includes supporting people after trauma and helping with addictive behaviours and motivation problems.
Her way of working draws on several approaches. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and change patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, ACT, focuses on values and taking meaningful action.
Attachment-based ideas look at how early relationships affect current connections. People can expect a calm, non-judgemental space to talk and practical tools to try at home. Asuncion encourages small steps and checks progress each session.
She accepts international clients and runs sessions by video, phone, live chat or text messaging.

Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and gives tools to change unhelpful patterns. It often involves practical exercises and behavioural experiments people can try between sessions to reduce symptoms like anxiety or sleep problems.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Asuncion will talk through your goals and preferences and together you will decide which methods to try first. She checks in regularly and adapts the plan as you notice progress or new priorities emerge.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let you talk face to face when a deeper conversation is needed. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when a quieter check-in fits into a lunch break. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for short updates, coaching-style support or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or relocation while keeping the work focused and goal oriented.
