Patrizia Rossi

About me

Patrizia (Trish) is a registered psychotherapist with 20 years of experience supporting individuals, couples, and families. She offers a warm, grounded, and empathic presence, creating a safe environment where people feel understood, accepted, and empowered to move toward meaningful change.

Her practice is integrative and tailored to each client. Trish draws on attachment theory, trauma-informed therapy, solution-focused approaches, motivational interviewing, CBT, and Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT).

Trish has extensive experience working with couples, combining Gottman Method Level 1 & 2 with Emotion Focused Couples Therapy (Level 1 & 2) and trauma-aware principles.

This blended approach gives couples both structure and emotional depth:

• Gottman Method provides clear, practical strategies to improve communication, reduce conflict, and strengthen relationship foundations.
• Emotion Focused Couples Therapy helps partners identify the deeper emotional patterns and unmet attachment needs that drive disconnection. EFT emphasises softening defensive cycles, improving emotional responsiveness, and fostering secure bonding.
• A trauma-informed lens ensures safety, regulation, and understanding, particularly when past wounds influence present dynamics.

Together, these methods allow couples to address surface issues and the emotional needs beneath them—supporting repair, deeper connection, and long-lasting relationship resilience.
