About Madalina

BACP. BA in Psychology. 11 years’ experience. Madalina Trusca works with people on relationship matters, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, stress, anxiety and related concerns. She also addresses career issues, compassion fatigue and intimacy-related problems and supports those dealing with depression and coping with life changes.

Madalina uses a mix of approaches in her counselling. She draws on Attachment-Based ideas to look at how early relationships influence current patterns. She uses Psychodynamic thinking to notice repeated themes and unconscious influences. Internal Family Systems helps her and clients map inner parts and their relationships.

Her background includes training across several models. She has a BA in Psychology and has studied Existential Psychotherapy, Integrative Psychotherapy, Psychodrama, Hypnosis and Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy. She began Transactional Analysis training in 2002 and found it a helpful way of tracing life patterns. She has also incorporated psycho-genealogy to explore messages passed through family lines.

Madalina began working with clients in 2011 in both private practice and corporate settings. Her experience covers individual work, couples and group formats on issues such as bereavement, family problems, panic, addictions, self-harm, phobias and sexual orientation concerns.

She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development. Sessions are offered in English and Romanian and she practises in the United Kingdom.

How her approaches work in online counselling

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns that come from early relationships and how they affect current connections. It helps when difficulties recur in partnerships or close relationships and provides a way to notice and shift those patterns.

Psychodynamic Therapy explores recurring themes and emotional patterns that can be outside immediate awareness. It is useful for understanding long-standing worries, relationship difficulties and past hurts that keep resurfacing.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and decide together which methods to use. That collaborative process can change over time as priorities evolve.

Confirm the available session formats before booking as the biography does not list specific options. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and offer shorter check-ins when needed. It can also allow for quieter surroundings or phone-only meetings when camera-free contact suits someone better.
