Rosemarie Savage, BACP

Rosemarie Savage is a counsellor in the United Kingdom with five years of professional practice. She focuses on everyday challenges such as stress, anxiety, grief and loss, and issues around motivation, self-esteem and confidence. Rosemarie works from the view that each person knows their own story best and already has strengths to draw on. She acknowledges that starting therapy takes courage and offers a calm, respectful space to begin.

Her approach is grounded in client-centred principles, which means conversations follow what matters most to the person in the room. She also uses mindfulness tools to help people pause and notice unhelpful thinking and somatic techniques to reconnect with bodily signals after stress or trauma. Trauma-focused methods are used when past harm is part of current struggles, always paced to the individual.

Sessions are practical and straightforward. Rosemarie helps people name what is difficult and work out small steps that feel manageable. She aims to make strategies fit into daily life, such as short breathing practices, simple behaviour changes, or ways to shift recurring thoughts.

Her background includes five years working with a wide range of concerns, from addiction and relationship strain to long-term health issues and caregiving stress. She holds BACP accreditation, which is listed as BACP. Rosemarie offers therapy in English and accepts international clients.

If you want to try counselling she asks people to use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to the therapist's availability.

How Rosemarie's approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on following the person's lead in conversation. The counsellor listens without directing the story and helps people make sense of their experiences in their own words. This works well for issues like low confidence, relationship strain and career questions.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple practices to notice thoughts and bodily sensations without getting swept up in them. These tools can help with stress, anxiety and managing recurring negative thinking patterns. Somatic Therapy invites attention to physical signals - breath, posture and tension - and uses gentle body-based exercises to reduce the effects of stress and trauma.

Finding the best approach is a joint process. The counsellor will talk through what feels most useful, try different techniques, and adjust based on your goals and preferences. That way therapy becomes a shared plan rather than a fixed programme.

The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into busy days and avoiding travel time, which can make it easier to keep regular appointments. Different session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm the available options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can help adapt mindfulness and somatic practices to work well in an online setting, for example by guiding short breathing or grounding exercises and suggesting between-session steps that fit everyday life.
