Gina Hossu, BACP

Gina Hossu is a BACP counsellor with 15 years' experience offering straightforward, practical support. She focuses on everyday struggles like anxiety, stress, depression and relationship worries, and also helps people dealing with trauma, grief, addiction and intimacy-related issues. Gina writes plainly and aims to make therapy feel manageable from the first conversation.

Her way of working mixes Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and person-centred listening. Sessions often involve spotting unhelpful thought patterns, trying small behaviour changes and practising simple mindfulness skills. Gina encourages clear goals that fit around daily life rather than big, abstract plans.

She also pays attention to attachment patterns and emotional responses in relationships. That means looking at how past experiences shape current trust, communication and jealousy concerns, and finding practical ways to respond differently. The work can include learning communication skills and ways to soothe intense feelings.

Gina’s background includes supporting people with career stress, caregiver strain, chronic pain and neurodiverse needs such as autism and ADHD. She brings a steady, everyday approach to complex problems so people can build coping skills that last.

Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients. To begin, a short questionnaire helps match priorities and set a first appointment. Gina aims for therapy that feels useful and doable in real life.

How Gina’s approaches translate to online therapy

Gina draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy alongside person-centred listening. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and testing small behaviour changes to reduce anxiety, low mood and compulsive patterns. ACT works with values and acceptance, helping people live in line with what matters despite difficult thoughts and feelings. Person-centred work puts the person’s own goals and pace at the centre and helps build trust and self-direction.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Gina will explore your goals, preferences and daily routines and together you will decide which methods to try. That collaborative process helps shape practical tasks and experiments that suit your life rather than fitting you to a single model.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the exact formats available before booking. Many people find online or remote sessions easier to fit around work, childcare and travel. Online meetings can make shorter check-ins simpler, reduce time spent travelling and let therapeutic exercises be done in the context of everyday life. Registered or accredited professionals like Gina can explain how they adapt CBT, ACT and person-centred techniques to work well at a distance.
