About Madalina
Madalina Trusca is a counsellor with 11 years' practical experience supporting people with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns and phobias. She helps people facing grief, stress, low self-esteem and issues around intimacy. Madalina works in both English and Romanian and practices in the United Kingdom under BACP registration.
Her sessions are straightforward and conversational. She listens for patterns that repeat in a person's life and links current difficulties to past experiences when helpful.
Background and approach
She blends reflective talking with practical steps so clients can try things between sessions. Madalina draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape needs and expectations. She also uses psychodynamic perspectives to examine how unconscious patterns influence feelings and reactions.
Internal Family Systems helps when people report inner conflict or parts that feel at odds with each other. Her background includes work in independent practice and corporate settings since 2011, combining therapy and coaching approaches. That mix informs a flexible style that can move between short-term practical goals and deeper exploration over time.
Sessions may address specific life changes such as bereavement, adoption and foster care issues, family of origin concerns, or career stress. Madalina is comfortable discussing complex themes like abandonment, codependency and compassion fatigue, and she supports clients through practical coping strategies as well as relational reflection.
Approaches that inform online work
Attachment-based therapy focuses on how early relationships affect current feelings and needs; it helps when people struggle with trust, closeness or recurring relationship patterns. Psychodynamic therapy looks at how past experiences and unconscious patterns shape present reactions and can be useful for longer-standing difficulties such as depression and anxiety. Internal Family Systems treats inner conflict by identifying different parts of the self and helping them to communicate and cooperate, which can ease internal turmoil and self-critical thought.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist will work collaboratively to understand your goals and try methods that fit your needs. That way you can see what feels most helpful and adjust direction as you go.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let you meet face to face when you want visual contact, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, ongoing coaching-style work or times when writing helps you reflect. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, family and daily life.
