About Madalina
Madalina Trusca is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 11 years of client work. She helps people who struggle with relationships, codependent patterns, anxiety, depression and grief. Sessions are offered in English and Romanian.
Her starting point is looking at how past experiences shape present behaviour. She draws on psychodynamic ideas and attachment-based perspectives to help people see repeated patterns in relationships. Conversations are direct and focused on recognising how family messages and early bonds influence decisions now.
Madalina also uses Imago relationship ideas to look at how partners respond to each other. That approach makes it easier to talk about conflict and communication without blaming. She combines this with Internal Family Systems thinking to notice different parts of a person - the part that pleases, the part that withdraws, and the part that gets angry.
Her background includes work in private practice and corporate settings, and she has supported people with bereavement, trauma and abuse, sexual orientation concerns, addiction and stress. She approaches career and caregiver stress in practical terms, helping people set clearer boundaries and priorities.
People can expect straightforward conversations about attachment, family-of-origin messages and present relationship patterns. The emphasis is on helping individuals understand how they got stuck and on exploring manageable changes they can try between sessions.
How sessions work
How her therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current responses. Online sessions can focus on noticing attachment patterns in relationships and testing small changes in how someone asks for needs to be met. Psychodynamic ideas help surface repeated family messages and unconscious patterns. In web conversations this can mean reflecting on family-of-origin stories and linking them to present-day behaviour in clear, manageable steps. Imago relationship ideas centre on how partners trigger each other and how to change communication. That approach helps people practise new ways of speaking and listening, even when they are working through old hurts. Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together decide which methods to use. That collaborative process helps match practical techniques to the issues a person brings. If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the exact session formats before booking as these are not specified here. Many people find remote sessions fit into a busy week, make it easier to have shorter check-ins and reduce travel time. Phone options can be useful when a quieter background is needed, and video sessions let people use visual cues during emotional conversations.Areas of focus
