About Mia

Mia Bezzi is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with eight years of experience. She works with adults on issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting challenges, grief, trauma, addiction and ADHD. She also supports people coping with sleep problems, anger, low self-esteem and life changes.

She uses a person-centred approach alongside psychodynamic ideas. Sessions aim to give time to talk and to notice patterns that keep causing pain. She can bring in mindfulness and meditation when that suits the person, and she uses practical CBT techniques where helpful.

Mia describes her method as integrative, choosing what fits each person rather than following one fixed model. That means sessions may focus on current problems, past experiences, or both, depending on what seems most useful. Work can include building coping skills, looking at recurring relationship dynamics, and practising simple mindfulness exercises.

People often come with family and parenting stresses, including fatherhood issues and concerns about attachment or abandonment. She also supports those dealing with body image, codependency, fertility issues and guilt or shame. Sessions are aimed at steady progress at a manageable pace.

Mia sees the first contact as a chance to explain how she works and what to expect. She asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire, then schedule an initial session. International clients may be accepted; sessions are offered in English.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and how online work can help

Mia draws on client-centred practice and psychodynamic ideas in her work. Client-centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s perspective, helping people talk through current problems and build trust in the session. Psychodynamic Therapy looks at recurring patterns and past experiences that influence present behaviour, which can be useful for relationship and attachment issues.

She also uses mindfulness strategies to help with anxiety, stress and sleep problems, teaching short practised exercises to calm the body and mind. Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively with the client to decide which methods best match their needs, goals and preferences rather than imposing one style.

Practical benefits of working online include fitting sessions around daily life and making it easier to keep appointments across time zones for international clients. The original profile does not specify which online formats are offered, so confirm the session types available before booking. Many people find online work suits brief check-ins, regular weekly sessions or practising mindfulness between meetings, and adjustments can be made to match a person’s routine and technical limits.
