About Roseanna

Roseanna Cook is a counsellor who blends practical therapy with a calm, down-to-earth manner. She introduces sessions with warmth and straightforward thinking. People often start with her when anxiety, trauma or loss feels overwhelming and they need a steady place to begin.

She uses a mix of approaches to match what each person needs. Sessions are collaborative - she listens first, then works with clients to set clear, manageable goals. That might mean learning new ways to cope with intrusive thoughts, building tools for addiction recovery, or finding steadiness after bereavement or disaster-related loss.

Roseanna has 16 years of experience supporting people through prolonged anxiety, trauma, phobias and addictive behaviours. Her background includes many hours of direct counselling work and a variety of clinical approaches. She is a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown as BACP.

Practical concerns are addressed alongside emotional ones. She helps people with low self-esteem, relationship and family difficulties, parenting strain, and career-related stress. Additional focus areas include chronic illness and caregiver stress, body image and attachment issues, and coping with natural or human-caused disaster.

Her style is compassionate and direct, using plain language and occasional humour. Sessions aim to be realistic and manageable, so people can take steady steps forward without feeling overwhelmed.

How her approaches shape online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then focus on actions that match their values. It is often useful for anxiety, persistent worries and coping with life changes. Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of sessions, with the counsellor following the client’s pace and priorities to build understanding and self-direction.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is practical and skills-based, breaking larger problems into smaller steps and testing new behaviours. It is commonly used for phobias, intrusive thoughts, low mood and many day-to-day stressors. Roseanna draws on these approaches to offer a mix of reflection and hands-on tools that suit different problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss options with clients and together decide what fits best based on needs, goals and how someone prefers to work. This is a collaborative conversation rather than a one-size-fits-all prescription.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the available session formats before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, help maintain regular contact during transitions, and reduce travel time. It can also allow for shorter check-ins where helpful, or work that does not require being on camera. Registered professionals and therapists offer different ways of working, and she will help choose what suits your schedule and daily routine.
