About Madalina
Counsellor and member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with 11 years' experience, Madalina Trusca works in the United Kingdom. She supports people facing relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, anxiety, depression, stress and issues around self-esteem and intimacy. She also offers coaching for career concerns and helps with compassion fatigue.
Madalina began work with clients in 2011 in private practice and corporate settings. She uses a range of approaches to help people understand patterns from their past and how these affect current relationships. Sessions are conversational and aim to make sense of repeated feelings and reactions.
Her practice draws on attachment-focused ideas to look at how early bonds shape adult relationships. Psychodynamic thinking is used to notice recurring themes linked to family history. Internal Family Systems work helps people map different inner parts and how they relate to one another.
She also uses Imago relationship ideas to look at how couples communicate and how old wounds can play out in partnerships. Existential approaches help people face big life questions and find practical ways to live with difficult feelings.
Madalina speaks English and Romanian. She lists the BACP as her professional body. For first steps she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.
How her approaches are used in online counselling
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current bonds. It helps people who struggle with trust, closeness or repeated relationship patterns to understand their responses and try new ways of relating. Psychodynamic Therapy focuses on themes that repeat across a person's life and how family history influences feelings and choices. This approach can be useful for grief, long-standing anxiety or patterns that affect relationships. Imago Relationship Therapy pays attention to how partners communicate and how old wounds influence interactions. It can help couples notice their triggers and practise clearer ways of speaking and listening. Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Madalina will talk with each person about their needs and preferences and decide together which methods to draw on. That discussion guides what the sessions will focus on and how progress is reviewed. Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online counselling can make sessions easier to fit into everyday life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer not to use video, need a quieter arrangement, or want therapy that fits around work or family commitments.Areas of expertise
