Alessio Tonato, BACP

Alessio Tonato is a BACP registered psychotherapeutic counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with seven years' experience. He offers talk therapy in English, French and Italian. He focuses on common life stresses such as anxiety, depression, anger and relationship or intimacy-related concerns.

His approach aims to increase awareness of how past experiences shape present patterns. Sessions look at what keeps problems repeating - for example control issues, codependency, avoidant patterns or impulsivity - and explore practical choices people can try differently. Alessio pays attention to attachment and relational dynamics when these affect self-esteem, trust or closeness.

He uses mindfulness to help people notice bodily signals and emotions without judgement. Somatic methods are used to bring awareness to physical reactions that are tied to stress and trauma. These ways of working are described simply and practised across sessions rather than labelled as formal tests or treatments.

Alessio frames conversations as a collaborative process. He listens for patterns around abandonment, commitment struggles, infidelity, family problems and the guilt or shame that often follows them. The aim is to help people build clearer options aligned with their life and career goals.

Practical work in sessions might include identifying unhelpful thinking, experimenting with different responses in relationships, and learning short mindfulness or body-based exercises. People who want to handle anger, move through separation, or manage career pressures will find a practical, straightforward style.
