Gina Hossu , BACP

Gina Hossu is the founder of Be Best Therapy and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), the professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the United Kingdom. She brings a calm, down-to-earth approach to therapy and adapts her work to suit each person's unique situation. Gina places particular emphasis on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy - a practical method that helps identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns - and she uses mindfulness techniques to support emotional regulation and reduce anxiety.

Alongside those tools, Gina integrates person-centred principles, which prioritise empathetic listening and helping clients take an active role in their own progress. Her style is solution-oriented but warm, aiming to make therapeutic work feel relevant and manageable rather than overwhelming. She focuses on setting realistic, life-friendly goals and on turning self-care from an abstract idea into everyday practice.

Gina understands the pressures of balancing work, family and personal needs and offers steady support through periods of change or difficulty. She works collaboratively with people to develop coping strategies, improve decision-making and build routines that lead to more balanced days. Her practice is aimed at helping individuals make small, meaningful changes that improve day-to-day wellbeing.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take actions that align with what matters to them, even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. It is useful for stress, anxiety and situations where people want to live more intentionally rather than be driven by avoidance. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new ways of thinking and behaving; it is often used for anxiety, low mood and day-to-day coping strategies. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises a nonjudgmental, empathic therapeutic relationship that empowers clients to lead the pace and direction of their work, supporting self-awareness and personal growth.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Gina works collaboratively with clients to decide which methods suit their needs, goals and preferences. Sessions can blend techniques so that the work feels practical and personally relevant rather than fitting a single model.

Online therapy offers practical advantages for many people - appointments can take place by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments. These options increase flexibility and accessibility, allowing licensed professionals and therapists to provide consistent support in ways that match each person's lifestyle.
