About Masamba

Masamba Juster is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has ten years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, depression and major life changes.

She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) alongside other approaches to help people name and work through strong emotions. Sessions often focus on how feelings show up in relationships and everyday life. Practical steps are included when needed, for example ways to manage anxiety or low mood.

Masamba also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy to help people explore values, patterns and connection. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centred methods are part of her wider practice. That mix supports both emotional processing and clearer thinking about difficult situations.

People come to her for a wide range of concerns beyond mood and loss. These include difficulties with intimacy, parenting strains, sleep and eating problems, addiction-related issues, and challenges tied to chronic illness or caregiving. She also works with issues such as body image, abandonment and attachment problems.

Her approach is conversational and practical. She listens to what matters most and agrees next steps with the person in front of her. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and then schedule a first session through the service's online options.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on recognising and naming strong emotions and how those feelings affect relationships. Online work with EFT tends to centre on noticing patterns in feeling and response, and rehearsing new ways of relating to oneself and others. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and build actions that match those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts or feelings. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at recurring connection patterns and aims to shift how people relate and feel secure with others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Masamba will discuss different methods and decide together which fits the person’s needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative process guides which tools and techniques are used over time.

The original biography does not specify session formats, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life, for example by avoiding travel, allowing shorter check-ins during busy days, or removing the need to be on camera when that feels uncomfortable. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often find that remote work can support consistent attendance and steady progress without changing the core of the therapeutic work.
