About Gina
Counsellor Gina Hossu is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with 15 years' experience. She works with common difficulties such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief and trauma. Sessions also cover issues like addiction, parenting pressures, sleep and eating concerns, and work-related strain.
Gina uses straightforward talking therapy methods to help people manage day-to-day problems. She commonly draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to spot and shift unhelpful thinking. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients notice what matters to them and make small changes that fit their life.
Attachment-based ideas shape how she looks at relationship and intimacy problems. Client-centred practice means sessions focus on what the person brings each week rather than a fixed programme. Emotionally-Focused Therapy techniques are used where feelings and bonds are central to the difficulty.
Her work often targets practical coping - reducing worry, improving communication, managing anger, or planning steps after loss. Gina also supports people facing complex issues such as dissociation, chronic illness, or concerns linked to autism and attachment patterns.
Gina offers therapy in English and accepts international clients. Costs vary with location and sessions are arranged through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.
Therapeutic approaches used in online counselling
Gina regularly uses cognitive behavioural therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in her work. Cognitive behavioural therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and is useful for anxiety, low mood and stress. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice their values and take small, value-driven actions even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present.She also draws on attachment-based ideas when relationship patterns and intimacy are an issue. Attachment-based work looks at how past connections shape current reactions and helps people understand and change repeated relationship responses. Gina treats finding the right approach as a shared task and will work with each person to identify what fits best for their needs and goals.
The practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting therapy into a busy schedule and making it easier to join from different locations. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the exact options before booking. Many people find online or remote counselling helps them keep appointments around work, caring duties or travel without needing extra time to attend in person.
