About Madalina

Madalina Trusca is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing anger, relationship strain, anxiety and grief. She works with issues around self-esteem, family conflict, intimacy and career stress. Sessions are offered in English and Romanian and her profile notes registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

Madalina began client work in 2011 and brings eleven years of practice experience. Her background includes a BA in Psychology and varied study in approaches such as Existential Therapy, Psychodrama and Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy. She also trained in Transactional Analysis early in her development and continues to use ideas from that approach.

She combines perspectives that look at present relationships and past family patterns. Psycho-genealogy features in her thinking about how messages move across generations. That lens is often paired with work on attachment patterns and how they shape day-to-day reactions.

In sessions she aims to make patterns easier to see and talk through. Work can include exploring early experiences, identifying repeated relationship dynamics, and trying new ways of responding. Practical coaching-style steps are also offered alongside conversational therapy when useful.

Madalina has worked in private practice and in corporate settings, with individual clients, couples and groups. Her practice covers a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, depression, compassion fatigue and managing life transitions. To begin, people use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a session according to availability.

How core approaches shape online work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current bonds and reactions. Online sessions can use this approach to map attachment patterns and try different ways of relating to partners and family.

Existential Therapy helps people face big questions about meaning, choice and responsibility. In online conversation this can mean clarifying values, weighing options and finding practical next steps when life feels uncertain.

Madalina treats finding the right approach as a joint process. She listens to a person's goals and preferences and suggests ways of working that match their needs. That means the plan can change as people notice what helps and what does not.

Confirm the current session options before booking, as the profile does not list specific formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work and family life, reduce travel time, and allow quieter check-ins or shorter appointments when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises, reflection and coaching-style tasks to work remotely, helping people practise new responses between sessions.
