Gina Hossu, BACP

Gina Hossu is a counsellor who uses practical therapy to help people manage life's hard patches. She brings 15 years of experience and works from approaches that aim to change thoughts and strengthen relationships. Gina is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and offers sessions in English for clients in the United Kingdom and internationally.

She commonly uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which helps people notice and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people live by their values, and Attachment-Based ideas to look at how relationships shape feelings and reactions. These methods are explained simply and used to fit each person's situation.

Gina helps with stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and work pressures. She also supports people dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, addiction concerns, compassion fatigue and long-term health challenges. Relationship struggles, intimacy issues and parenting strains are part of her caseload as well.

Sessions focus on setting realistic goals and practising small changes between meetings. Conversations aim to be straightforward and to the point so people can try things out in everyday life. Gina works with clients to build coping skills for sleep, eating, anger and communication difficulties.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability. Costs vary with location and a subscription model is used that can be cancelled at any time.

How Gina adapts therapeutic approaches for online work

Gina commonly uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thinking and test small behavioural changes in daily life. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood and sleep or eating difficulties. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients clarify their values and commit to meaningful actions despite difficult thoughts or sensations.

Finding the right way of working is part of therapy. Gina will discuss options with each person and together they will decide which approach fits goals and preferences. That collaborative decision shapes the tools and exercises used between sessions.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because the biography does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often adapt worksheets, mindfulness exercises and behavioural tasks so they can be practised at home and reviewed in subsequent meetings.
