About Roseanna

Roseanna Cook works with people facing anxiety, trauma, addiction, phobias, loss and low self-esteem, using a mix of practical talking therapies and mindful techniques. She is a BACP registered member and has 16 years of experience in counselling.

Roseanna focuses on clear, practical work rather than technical language. Sessions tend to look at the patterns that keep problems repeating and build small, manageable steps to change them. She draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to spot unhelpful thoughts, acceptance and commitment techniques to clarify values and action, and mindfulness to anchor attention in the present.

She also uses client-centred principles to listen for what matters most to each person and motivational interviewing to support change when people feel stuck. That combination is often useful for persistent anxiety, addiction concerns, phobias and grief. Roseanna explains options and helps people choose what to try next rather than imposing a single method.

Her experience includes long-term work with trauma and bereavement, and practical support for relationship strain, parenting questions and identity issues. She has delivered thousands of counselling hours and has worked across a wide range of emotional and behavioural problems.

People who come to her can expect direct conversation, clear suggestions and short exercises to practise between sessions. Roseanna aims to keep things straightforward and focused on what will make daily life feel more manageable, step by step.

How her approaches adapt to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to notice thoughts without getting ruled by them and to take actions that reflect their values; it is often used for anxiety, depression and life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and practising alternative ways of responding, which can help with phobias, anxiety and low mood. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises listening and understanding the person's perspective to build trust and clarify what matters to them.

Choosing the right mix of methods is part of the work. Roseanna collaborates with each person to decide which approaches to try, based on their goals and what feels helpful in early sessions. That discussion guides whether more practical CBT-style tasks or acceptance and values-based work is prioritised.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-in meetings when needed and avoid travel time. It also makes it possible to use guided exercises, mindfulness practice and written worksheets between meetings to support progress.
