About Rusne
BACP-registered counsellor with six years' experience, Rusne Fokiene focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, grief, self-esteem and coping with life changes. She works with people who are dealing with abandonment, attachment issues, body image, chronic illness and pain, communication problems, guilt and shame, and related concerns. Sessions may be conducted in English or Lithuanian.
Rusne trained with a BSc in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Before private practice she spent four years in the voluntary sector providing counselling to people from varied backgrounds. That work included supporting those affected by substance misuse, depression, trauma and bereavement.
Her style is practical and experiential. She draws on mindfulness and core process psychotherapy to help clients notice physical sensations and emotional patterns. Sessions include slowing down, checking bodily reactions and talking through past events that still affect day-to-day life.
Therapy aims are agreed together and reviewed regularly. Rusne offers both short-term focused work and longer-term support depending on what a person needs. She pays attention to how early life events shape present behaviour and feelings, and helps people build skills to manage emotions and relationships.
People looking for help with life transitions, midlife concerns, isolation or women's issues will find a focus on practical steps and experiential exercises. The approach blends discussion with guided practices so clients can try things between sessions and notice what changes.

Therapeutic approaches and remote sessions
Rusne uses mindfulness practices to help people notice their breath, bodily sensations and the present moment. These techniques can reduce rumination and help with stress, anxiety and managing strong emotions.She also draws on core process psychotherapy, which focuses on how early experiences shape current patterns. This approach helps people understand recurring behaviours and emotional responses and supports work on attachment and relationship issues.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss different techniques with each person and choose methods together based on goals and preferences. The process is collaborative and reviewed as therapy progresses.
The practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting therapy into a busy week and reducing travel time.
