About Madalina
Madalina Trusca helps people dealing with relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, and anxiety. She also supports people facing stress, low self-esteem, depression, and career or life transitions. Madalina works with intimacy-related issues, anger, compassion fatigue and a wide range of family and attachment concerns.
She offers help in English and Romanian and practises from the United Kingdom. Madalina uses a mix of approaches that look at how past patterns influence present life.
Background and approach
She pays attention to attachment and family-of-origin issues, and she draws on psychodynamic ideas to understand recurring emotional responses. Her background includes work in both independent practice and corporate settings since 2011, combining psychotherapy and coaching. Clients can expect clear, straightforward conversation about what matters to them.
Sessions focus on identifying unhelpful patterns, tracing where they began, and trying different ways of responding. Madalina aims to make links between past experiences and current struggles so people can make practical changes. She has eleven years of professional experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
Her work covers a broad set of concerns including abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, blended family challenges, codependency, communication problems, and caregiving stress. Sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. Therapy is arranged through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and bookings are made after a short matching questionnaire and scheduling step.

How her approaches work online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape emotional responses now. It helps people understand patterns in relationships and how to build more supported ways of relating. Psychodynamic Therapy focuses on how past experiences and unconscious patterns influence current feelings and choices. It can be useful for understanding repeating problems like anxiety or low self-esteem. Internal Family Systems treats the mind as made of different parts that carry feelings and beliefs; working with those parts can reduce inner conflict and improve self-understanding.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what feels most useful. Together they will try methods that suit the person's aims and adapt as the work unfolds in sessions.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat or messaging suits people who prefer writing between sessions or want flexible, ongoing contact. These options aim to make therapy more accessible and easier to fit into daily life.
