About Rusne

Rusne Fokiene is a BACP counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, low self-esteem and life changes. She is experienced supporting women’s issues and helps clients who are working through feelings like abandonment, shame, loneliness and body image concerns.

She holds a Bachelor of Science in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy and brings six years of practice experience to her work. Before private practice she spent four years in the voluntary sector offering counselling to people with a range of concerns, including substance misuse, depression and emotional trauma.

Her style is warm and practical. Sessions are collaborative and tailored to each person’s needs. She uses a blend of techniques so people can notice what helps and build useful daily coping skills.

Her approach draws on mindfulness and core process ideas to help clients connect with bodily sensations and feelings. Therapy often involves slowing down, sensing what comes up and talking through how past events shape present choices.

Work can be short term or longer term depending on goals, with regular reviews to check progress and adjust the plan. The emphasis is on clarifying priorities, practising new ways of relating to yourself and others, and strengthening resilience for everyday life.

How integrative approaches translate to online work

Rusne uses an integrative approach that blends practical techniques with experiential elements. Mindfulness is one strand she uses to help people slow down, notice bodily sensations and reduce stress through simple attention practices. Core process ideas form another strand, helping clients explore how early experiences affect feelings and relationship patterns in everyday life.

Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. She works collaboratively to find which techniques fit a person’s needs and preferences. Sessions include regular review so the plan can change if something isn’t helping.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Many people find online therapy helpful because it can fit into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Online work can also make it easier to use mindfulness exercises at home and practise new ways of relating between sessions.
