About Rusne
Rusne Fokiene helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, low self-esteem and major life changes. She is a BACP counsellor who writes and speaks plainly about emotional struggle. Her style is warm and practical.
She aims to make therapy feel manageable for people who are worried or overwhelmed. Rusne trained to a BSc level in integrative counselling and psychotherapy and has six years' experience. She spent four years working in the voluntary sector providing counselling to people from many backgrounds.
Background and approach
That work involved supporting people with substance misuse, depression, anxiety, trauma and bereavement, which shaped how she understands long-term patterns and early life influences. Her approach blends different methods to attend to feelings, body sensations and life stories. She uses mindfulness-based elements and core process ideas to help people notice what's happening inside them.
Sessions often involve slowing down, paying attention to physical sensations, and putting words to difficult feelings. Therapy is shaped around the person's goals, whether they want short-term help or longer-term support. Progress is reviewed regularly so the focus keeps matching what the person needs.
Rusne aims for practical skills that can be used outside sessions to manage emotions, relationships and big life changes. She offers sessions in English and Lithuanian and works with people in the United Kingdom. Appointments are available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging.

Focus areas and approaches
What Rusne works with
Everything Rusne lists, in their own terms.
Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will check in about goals and preferences and adapt methods over time. That makes sessions collaborative - the person and therapist decide together which techniques feel most useful and how to apply them in everyday life.
Online formats allow the same therapeutic work to continue without travel. Video calls suit conversations that benefit from visual connection. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for shorter check-ins, reflective writing and when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options offer flexibility and make it easier to fit therapy into a varied schedule.
