Barbara AnzaloneBACP

Barbara Anzalone is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She holds BACP registration, which is listed as her credential. She helps people who are feeling stressed, anxious, low in mood, or struggling with confidence and motivation. She also supports people dealing with the effects of trauma and abuse and concerns around relationships.

Barbara aims to treat everyone with respect, sensitivity and compassion. She adapts conversations and plans to each person's circumstances rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. Sessions focus on practical steps you can try between meetings as well as talking things through in the room.

Her work addresses related issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties and communication problems. She can help people who are coping with guilt or shame, isolation and life-direction questions. Concerns about body image, self-love and post-traumatic stress are also within her stated focus areas.

Barbara lists pregnancy and childbirth among the topics she covers, and she can support people facing mood changes or anxiety connected to those times. She also notes experience with panic attacks, mood disorders, divorce and separation, and forgiveness work.

Sessions are offered in English and Italian, and she accepts international clients. The therapist requests that people use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and then book a time according to her availability.

Approaches that guide online work and how they help

Barbara describes her practice as using evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to the person in front of her. One approach she uses focuses on talking through current problems and building practical coping strategies to reduce anxiety and manage stress, which can be helpful for panic attacks and day-to-day overwhelm. Another common strand emphasises working through past hurts and trauma with careful pacing, aiming to reduce the impact of traumatic memories on current mood and relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adjust methods as therapy progresses. This is a collaborative process where the plan can change based on how things are going.

For practicalities, please confirm the session formats available before booking as the biography does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it possible to access support in English or Italian from different locations, with scheduling arranged according to the therapist's availability.
