Erika Colussi Bellmont, BACP

Erika Colussi Bellmont is a counsellor who supports people dealing with relationship strain, jealousy, trauma and abuse, anxiety and low self-esteem. She works in both English and Spanish and aims to help people feel heard and understood. Erika is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

Erika uses an integrative approach that draws on a few core methods to meet each person's needs. She pays attention to how past experiences shape current reactions and helps clients bring unconscious patterns into awareness. Sessions focus on understanding emotions, building resilience and finding practical ways to cope day to day.

She has worked with people from different cultural backgrounds and offers counselling to those who face language or cultural barriers when seeking help. Erika emphasises respect for each person's values and ways of thinking while working at a pace that feels right for them.

In the room she aims to be relational and collaborative, reflecting what a client brings in and offering new perspectives. She does not give direct advice but may suggest practical coping strategies for difficult emotions or situations.

Erika has three years of practice experience and brings particular interest in attachment-informed work. Her background includes counselling in an intercultural therapy centre where she supported people facing barriers to accessing psychological help.

How attachment and relational approaches translate to online therapy

Erika draws on attachment-informed work and client-centred practice to help people understand how early relationships affect present feelings and behaviour. Attachment-based approaches look at patterns of relating and help with issues such as jealousy, commitment concerns and attachment anxiety. Client-centred work focuses on listening, empathy and helping people find their own solutions to problems like low self-esteem or relationship stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Erika will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful during early sessions. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust as progress is made, so the plan fits each person's needs and pace.

The therapist's biography does not list specific online or remote session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow someone to check in from a quieter space. It can also make it simpler to continue therapy when life circumstances change, and allows the therapist and client to focus on emotions, patterns and practical coping strategies without needing to rearrange large parts of daily life.
