About Rusne

Rusne Fokiene helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief and low self-esteem. She also supports those facing life changes and concerns like abandonment, attachment issues, body image and chronic illness. Rusne communicates plainly and creates a calm space so clients can talk through painful or confusing feelings.

Rusne holds a Bachelor of Science in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

Background and approach

She blends a range of therapeutic methods to match each person’s needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan. Sessions are paced to fit what the client prefers, with regular reviews to check progress. Before running her independent practice, Rusne spent four years in the voluntary sector providing counselling to people from varied backgrounds.

That time included supporting clients with substance misuse, depression, anxiety, emotional trauma and bereavement. Those experiences shaped her interest in how early life events affect adult feelings and behaviour. Her style is practical and experiential.

She invites clients to notice bodily sensations, breathe, and slow down so thoughts and emotions become clearer. Conversations aim to uncover patterns, build insight and develop everyday skills that people can use outside the therapy room. Sessions can be arranged for short-term help or for longer work, depending on what each person needs.

Rusne offers care in English and Lithuanian, and she practises from the United Kingdom.

How Rusne works online

Rusne describes her work as integrative, drawing on practical, evidence-based techniques that help with emotions and behaviour. One approach she uses encourages mindful awareness of bodily sensations and breath to reduce overwhelm and reactivity; this can help with anxiety, stress and low mood. Another strand involves exploring core process work to uncover recurring patterns and early life influences, which can be useful for attachment concerns, relationship problems and issues like guilt or shame.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your goals and preferences and suggest which techniques to try. That decision is collaborative and reviewed as therapy progresses so adjustments are made when needed.

If you are considering online therapy, please confirm which session formats are available before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people join sessions from locations that better suit their schedule or energy levels. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt practical exercises and experiential techniques so they remain useful when delivered remotely.
