About Masamba

Masamba Juster is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with 10 years of practice in the United Kingdom. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression, and supports people facing life changes and relationship concerns. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are accepted.

Masamba uses a mix of practical talking therapies to help people manage difficult feelings and rebuild day-to-day coping. She draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to identify unhelpful thoughts and on acceptance and commitment approaches to clarify values and everyday actions. Attachment-based and emotionally-focused ideas also shape how she looks at relationship struggles and intimacy issues.

In sessions she focuses on clear, simple steps people can use between meetings. That might include noticing patterns, trying small behavioural experiments, or practising tolerating uncomfortable feelings while staying focused on what matters. Masamba also works with practical problems such as sleeping, eating, and work stress alongside emotional concerns.

Her background covers a wide range of issues beyond anxiety and grief, including ADHD, addiction, caring responsibilities, chronic health problems, body image and parenting concerns. This broad experience means she can link present problems to past patterns and everyday routines.

People who choose to start with her are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire before booking a first session. The service uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and costs vary by location.

How her approaches work for online sessions

Masamba commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) in her work. ACT helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, values-based steps even when feelings are difficult. CBT focuses on practical ways to spot unhelpful thoughts and test different behaviours to reduce distress.

She also draws on attachment-based ideas when relationship or intimacy issues are involved, looking at how past patterns shape current interactions. These approaches aim to be practical and to give tools that can be tried between sessions rather than only discussed during them. Finding the right blend of methods is part of the process and she works with clients to decide what fits their needs, goals and preferences.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm which online options are available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings around work, caregiving or medical appointments and can allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also reduces travel time and lets people try therapeutic techniques in everyday settings while discussing how they went with their counsellor.
