About Gina
Gina Hossu draws on person-centred and evidence-based approaches to help people find clearer ways forward. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has worked in the field for 15 years. Gina aims to create a calm and straightforward space where people can talk about stress, anxiety, depression and relationship worries.
Her practice focuses on practical tools and steady support. She uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking patterns.
How Gina works
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) are part of her toolkit for emotional awareness and getting unstuck. Gina also pays attention to attachment and relational patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy guides conversations about how early relationships influence current connections.
That approach can be helpful when intimacy, communication or commitment issues feel challenging. She has worked with a wide range of concerns, from grief, trauma and addictions to parenting stress, career strain and body image. Gina also supports people dealing with chronic health conditions, caregiver stress, dissociation and eating or sleeping difficulties.
Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. The working style is collaborative: Gina helps set achievable goals, teaches coping strategies and adapts methods to fit each person’s life. She encourages small, practical steps that can make daily life steadier.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting swept away by them, then pick actions that match their values. This can be useful for anxiety, coping with life changes and stress. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviours to reduce distress and improve mood; it often suits worries, sleep problems and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and helps people develop different ways of relating when intimacy or communication is hard.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through your goals and preferences, try methods that fit your situation, and adjust as needed. The process is collaborative, with tools and exercises agreed between you and the counsellor.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for short check-ins and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options let people fit therapy around work, family and travel while using approaches like ACT and CBT in a practical way.
