About Alessio
Alessio Tonato is a psychotherapeutic counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). He offers talk therapy aimed at personal and professional growth. Alessio works in English, French and Italian and brings seven years of experience to his practice.
He uses a holistic approach that encourages awareness and dialogue. Sessions focus on noticing patterns in feelings, thoughts and behaviour that cause distress. Alessio helps people find different ways of responding that better match their current life and work goals.
In practical terms he and the client look at what lies behind recurring problems. That can mean examining attachment patterns, responses to stress and physical sensations connected to emotion. The aim is to create specific alternatives that feel doable in everyday life.
His work often covers anxiety and stress, relationship and intimacy challenges, self‑esteem, depression, and coping with major life changes. He also supports people dealing with abandonment, codependency, communication and commitment issues, and the turmoil that follows separation or infidelity.
Sessions combine conversation with mindful attention to the body and relational patterns. Alessio aims to make therapy a space where clients can try things out, learn practical skills and build clearer personal choices. He asks new clients to complete a short questionnaire before scheduling to match the work to their needs.
How his approaches translate to online work
Alessio uses Attachment‑Based Therapy to look at how early connection patterns shape current relationships and reactions. This helps people who struggle with intimacy, abandonment fears or communication problems recognise and change repeating patterns.He also uses Mindfulness Therapy to teach simple attention practices that lower reactivity to stress and anxiety. Mindful noticing of thoughts and bodily sensations helps clients respond rather than react in tense moments.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Alessio will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their needs and goals. He will listen to preferences and try out different ways of working together until a good fit is found.
Details about exact online session formats are not specified here, so confirm the available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check‑in meetings when needed. It also lets people keep continuity of care when circumstances change, while the therapist and client together shape practical arrangements that suit everyday life.
