About Antonello
Antonello Sirigu welcomes people who are feeling stuck by stress, anxiety or life changes. He helps with career worries, low mood and practical coping skills. He offers a calm, respectful space and invites straightforward conversation about what is worrying you.
He trained and practised in Italy and has since worked in UK mental health services. Antonello holds HCPC registration, which is listed as his professional credential. His background includes counselling adults for anxiety, depression, workplace bullying, immigration concerns and questions about identity and life direction.
Background and approach
In sessions he adapts his style to each person. He uses a mix of approaches to match what someone needs in the moment. That might mean focusing on ways to change thinking and behaviour, practising emotional regulation skills, or exploring how past relationships shape current problems.
Antonello has experience in mental health services, charities, universities and day treatment centres. He has worked with people around career decisions, performance and motivation, as well as end-of-life and hospice concerns. He also supports people dealing with isolation, family origin issues, and attachment or commitment worries.
He aims to be sensitive to cultural differences and to tailor plans to each person. Sessions combine practical steps with reflection, depending on goals. If your priority is symptom relief, clearer choices, or a deeper understanding of yourself, Antonello offers collaborative support to work towards those aims.

How Antonello works online
He also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change and build motivation step by step. Choosing a therapeutic approach is a collaborative process, and he will work with clients to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences as therapy progresses.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the exact session formats before booking since current options are not specified here. Online work can make fitting therapy into a busy life easier by removing travel time and offering more flexible scheduling. It can also allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, or sessions that focus on skills practice rather than long reflective work when that suits the moment. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt materials and exercises for remote sessions to keep progress moving between meetings.
