Portrait of Monika Bassani, Counseller and Supervisor

Hello, and a warm welcome.

Thank you for considering me as your counsellor. I understand that reaching out can be a big step. I want to make our working relationship as comfortable and clear as possible. Counselling is not a rushing process; therapy requires commitment and patience, the collaboration is instrumental.

I am an Integrative Counsellor based in Falmouth, Cornwall.

The Integrative Counselling is a holistic approach that combines various therapeutic techniques to cater for the individual needs, promoting well-being and personal growth. By drawing on different modalities, it facilitates deeper self-awareness for clients to explore their feelings and experiences. I work with a Relational approach.

Counselling is a process focused on the person; it is your autonomy that is embraced and validated. I offer professional and personal experience and a deeper understanding to support you in learning, healing, and keep showing up. Together, we can share honest conversations about difficult subjects, where real changes happen.

I am Attachment and Trauma informed, I provide you with a structured yet flexible approach, so you can implement sustainable changes in your life.

Welcome to our online couple counselling service in Falmouth, Cornwall.

I am dedicated to help you and your partner strengthen your relationship. My experience provide a safe and supportive environment to explore your challenges and enhance communication. Together, we can work towards lasting solutions and renewed connection, we explore what is needed to happen, what part of your behaviour and relationship dynamics is in need to change.

I welcome Gender, Sexual and Relationship Diversity, everyone is unique.

I look forward to being of support to you.

Trauma Informed:

I have been working over a decade with adults, individuals and couples from a variety of backgrounds, and cultures. I am Trauma Informed, I understand the impact of past experiences and the effects on your present relationship and relational dynamics with others close to you.

Narcissistic Abuse:

Through personal experience I understand those silent scars the impact of Narcissistic abuse leaves behind.

Discernment Counselling

Discernment counselling is an intervention to offer each partner the opportunity to clarify their needs, to help them to make common decisions about their future.

Clinical Supervision:

Online Clinical Supervision in Seven-Eyed Model in line with the NCPS and BACP Ethical Framework for the Counselling Professions. ACTO Professional Member.

ADH Affirming:

I am ADHD informed and affirming through both personal and professional experiences. My focus is on those difficulties you are facing in your life, the traumas animated in those challenges due to childhood adversities.

Life Coaching:

My services are change focused, there is space for collaboration to explore new possibilities, overcoming obstacles, change behaviours, to find and sustain those goals you want to achieve. Client led, collaborative and challenging.

Walk and Talk Therapy:

We can talk in the stunning scenery of Falmouth, in Cornwall and its beaches. I ill be discussing any concerns prior to your first walk-and-talk, so you can make an informed decision.The sessions are outdoors for those clients may prefer to move or walk. Walk and Talk therapy is linked with many physical and mental health benefits, including decreased stress and anxiety, improved ADHD symptoms, increased focus, improved sleep patterns.

If you are unsure whether therapy is right for you, I offer an intro call no obligations over the phone, or online, to discuss your initial needs and see if we can work together.

Personal Experience:

Having personally experienced the impact of psychological abuse through childhood adversities, Narcissistic abuse, and trauma, I bring empathy and understanding to my work.

Through years of personal therapy, dedicated professional training with sheer passion and determination, I have developed the skills and insights to help others navigate their own personal journeys.

Outside my professional role I enjoy coastal walks, exploring the countryside, swimming in the sea, and travelling.
