Rosemarie Savage , BACP

Rosemarie Savage is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, and life changes. She works with clients on addictions, LGBT concerns, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, and mood difficulties such as depression and bipolar. Rosemarie uses a warm, person-focused approach and treats each person as the expert in their own story.

She listens for strengths and builds practical steps from there. Sessions are straightforward and conversational. Clients can expect a calm space to talk through what is hard and to try new ways of coping.

Rosemarie draws on client-centred methods to keep the focus on the person and their goals. She also uses mindfulness to help with anxiety and Somatic Therapy to notice how stress shows up in the body. For people affected by traumatic events, trauma-focused techniques are used to work through distress at a pace that suits them.

She has five years of professional experience and holds BACP accreditation, which is recorded as BACP. Her practice is based in the United Kingdom and she offers help in English. Rosemarie is open to working with people from different countries.

Her style is gentle and collaborative. She aims to make therapy feel manageable and relevant to daily life. Taking a first step can feel difficult, and she recognises the effort that takes.

How these approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person without judgement. Online sessions let the counsellor follow the client's lead, helping them set goals and explore options at their own pace.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple practices to notice thoughts and feelings without getting swept away. Delivered over video or phone, these techniques can reduce worry and build calm in daily life.

Somatic Therapy pays attention to bodily signals and how stress appears in posture, breath and sensation. In remote sessions the counsellor guides gentle awareness and grounding exercises that can be practised between meetings.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with the client about problems, goals and preferences, and together they will decide which methods to try and how quickly to move forward.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions need less bandwidth and suit quick check-ins, live chat works for shorter exchanges, and text-based messaging lets people write when it fits their schedule. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel and to keep momentum between meetings.
