Bianca helped me identify my needs and put words on my emotions. She supported me through a heavily emotional and chaotic time, putting the focus back on me and allowing me to communicate my needs with more ease.
More about Bianca

- BACP
I am licensed and accredited in the UK with 15 years of professional work experience as a Psychotherapist. I work in the NHS, CAMHS and privately.
My style is relational and humanistic. I am supported by many tools and much expertise to amplify your experience of change and growth. I look at things holistically and systemically, with lenses on relationship with self and others, patterns and cycles, life stages and transtions, stories about your life and family of origin, communication patterns, and values.
I have experience in helping clients with self esteem and life purpose, grief, loss and transitions, understanding anger, aspect work, family conflicts and childhood related trauma, as well as parenting / family system issues & child related mental health.
I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage, well done for getting started.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
