Background and approach

ADHD, eating concerns and the fallout from separation or divorce are also within her scope. Elisabeta uses a mix of approaches to suit each person. Client-Centred Therapy means sessions are shaped around the person speaking, while Solution-Focused work helps identify practical steps forward.

She draws on Systemic and Existential ideas to understand relationship patterns and life meaning when relevant. Her background includes six years of professional experience, including work in her country of origin before practising in the UK. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

In sessions she aims to create an open, non-judgemental space where thoughts and feelings can be spoken about honestly. New clients are guided through a short matching process and offered a format that fits their life, whether that is talking by video, phone or messaging. Elisabeta encourages small steps and practical next actions between sessions.

How Elisabeta's approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy places your experience at the centre of sessions, so the counsellor follows your lead and reflects what matters most to you. This approach helps when people need space to talk and to feel heard about anxiety, stress and relationship worries.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical steps and goals. It can be useful when someone wants clearer next actions for coping with life changes, anger or career decisions. Systemic ideas help spot patterns in relationships and family dynamics that keep problems repeating, which can be important for parenting and blended family concerns.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The counsellor will discuss your needs and preferences and adapt methods as you go. Many people try a mix of techniques until the best fit emerges, and decisions are reviewed together throughout therapy.

Online sessions give flexibility for modern life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a deeper connection matters. Phone sessions work well if bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to use a camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, written reflection or when it is easier to fit a session into a short break. These options make it easier to keep regular contact and to try different formats to suit changing needs.
