About Rosa
Rosa Tomassi-Bella offers calm, down-to-earth support for people feeling overwhelmed by life’s pressures. She helps with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, trauma and abuse, and self-esteem struggles. Sessions focus on listening and understanding before any plan is agreed.
Rosa aims to make therapy feel manageable and respectful of each person's pace. Rosa holds a BACP accreditation which she combines with academic study in psychology. She completed a Bachelor of Science in Psychology with Neuropsychology and a Master of Science in Clinical and Health Psychology.
Background and approach
She does not practise as a psychologist, but her studies inform how she understands the links between thoughts, feelings and the body. Her core way of working is person-centred. That means conversations are shaped around the client's experience and values rather than a fixed method.
She also draws on attachment ideas to look at how early relationships influence current patterns. Jungian and psychodynamic ideas can be used to bring symbolic meaning and life story into view when that feels useful. Rosa offers sessions online by video, phone, live chat or messaging so people can choose what suits them.
She shares optional reflective tools such as worksheets and journaling prompts to support learning between sessions. These resources are adapted to each person so they feel helpful rather than burdensome. Therapy with Rosa is collaborative and paced gently.
She focuses on building a trusting therapeutic connection that helps people feel heard, clearer about their needs, and better able to take next steps.

Online support
Psychodynamic and Jungian ideas bring attention to life story, recurring themes and symbolic meaning. These approaches can be useful when someone wants to understand deeper roots of patterns or to explore dreams, imagination and personal narratives. Rosa approaches these methods flexibly and will discuss which ideas fit best for the client's goals.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide what helps most, based on the person's needs, goals and preferences. Sessions can shift focus over time so the method matches where someone is in their journey.
Online therapy by video, phone, live chat or messaging offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation; phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text messaging can suit people who prefer writing or want regular, brief check-ins. These options help make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring commitments or differing energy levels.
