About Erika
Erika Colussi Bellmont is a counsellor registered with the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years of practice in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, stress, low self-esteem, addiction and eating concerns, and other life changes. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.
Erika uses an integrative, relational style that draws on several therapeutic approaches. She pays attention to how past attachments and current relationships shape feelings and behaviour. In practical terms this means talking through patterns, reflecting on emotions, and exploring how memories or early relationships still affect daily life.
Her work aims to help people bring unconscious processes into awareness. That often involves noticing repeated reactions, understanding their origins, and trying different ways of responding. She offers reflection and suggestions for coping strategies rather than direct advice.
Erika has experience working with people from diverse cultural backgrounds. She has provided counselling at an intercultural centre focused on reducing barriers related to culture and language. This background informs how she listens and discusses values and identity.
People can expect a collaborative way of working that focuses on the person in front of her. Sessions look at both past influences and present difficulties, with the goal of gaining clarity and building resilience. For practical arrangements, clients are asked to use the platform process to match and schedule a first session.
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships affect current feelings and trust. Online sessions using this approach look at patterns in relationships and help people understand why they react the way they do in social or intimate situations.Client-Centred Therapy places emphasis on listening and reflecting what the client brings. In remote sessions this means the counsellor mirrors thoughts and feelings, helping the person feel heard and to make sense of their own experience.
Psychodynamic Therapy examines unconscious patterns and past influences on present behaviour. Online conversations can reveal recurring themes and give space to notice how old conflicts show up now, including in social anxiety or avoidance.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will collaborate with the client to decide which methods feel most useful, based on the person's concerns, goals and preferences. That decision can change over time as the client learns more about what helps.
Please confirm the session formats available before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time, all of which can help someone maintain regular contact with a therapist.
