About Roseanna

Roseanna Cook is a BACP counsellor with 16 years' experience supporting adults in the UK. She works with people facing anxiety, trauma, bereavement, addictions and related difficulties. Her practice often sees issues such as low self-esteem, relationship strain, phobias and life changes.

She uses a blend of practical approaches to help people manage symptoms and make choices that suit their values. Sessions are collaborative and based on what the person is ready to work on. Roseanna draws on techniques that help with unwanted thoughts, emotional overwhelm and patterns that hold people back.

Her background includes extensive client hours and long-term work with trauma and addiction. She combines structured methods with open conversation to clarify what is causing distress and what can be changed. There is attention to how past experiences affect present relationships and decision-making.

People who struggle with people-pleasing, boundary difficulties or living around another person's crises may find the practical focus useful. Roseanna also works with issues related to parenting stress, caregiving strain and codependency patterns when they arise in individual sessions.

Her style balances directed techniques and listening. Sessions aim to build clearer thinking, steadier emotion regulation and more consistent action towards personal goals. Prospective clients are encouraged to start with a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session to see how the approach fits.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking actions that matter. It helps people who feel stuck by teaching skills to notice thoughts and choose value-led behaviour rather than getting caught up in every thought.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) works on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It is often used for anxiety, phobias and low mood by identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practising different responses.

Client-Centred Therapy concentrates on listening and understanding the person's experience. It aims to make space for honest reflection and to help people find their own solutions through a supportive therapeutic relationship.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Roseanna will help decide what fits based on a person's goals, preferences and how they respond to early sessions. Decisions about methods are made together and can change as progress is made.

If you plan to meet online, confirm which session formats are offered before booking since specific options are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed and avoid travel time. They can also suit quieter surroundings or people who prefer not to be on camera for some meetings.
