Elisabeta Oltean, BACP

Elisabeta Oltean offers practical support for people feeling stuck by stress, relationship strain, jealousy, anxiety or low self-esteem. She uses straightforward conversation to help clients notice patterns, make small changes and build stronger day-to-day coping skills. Elisabeta works in English and Romanian and practises in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP and has six years of professional experience.

Elisabeta draws on several therapy styles to meet each person where they are. Sessions tend to focus on the client’s priorities - for example reducing jealousy, improving communication, or managing sleep and low mood. She encourages clients to name what matters most and to try simple exercises between meetings to reinforce progress.

Her work often blends acceptance and mindfulness-based ideas with a client-centred stance. That means listening closely, reflecting what the client says, and helping them find their own answers rather than imposing solutions. Motivational tools and narrative techniques are used when a person wants to shift long-standing habits or stories about themselves.

Elisabeta also attends to life-stage and attachment issues such as abandonment, codependency and family of origin problems. Her approach is practical and down to earth, focusing on achievable steps rather than abstract theory. She supports people coping with grief, trauma and changes in career or parenting roles.

People who meet her can expect calm, clear sessions that aim to increase self-awareness and daily functioning. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

Approaches used online and what they offer

Elisabeta often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy in her work. ACT helps people notice difficult thoughts without fighting them and focus on actions that align with their values, which can be useful for jealousy, anxiety and life transitions. Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience at the centre of sessions, with the counsellor listening carefully and reflecting back to help the client find their own solutions.

She also uses Mindfulness Therapy techniques to help people become more aware of bodily sensations and habitual reactions. Mindfulness can support sleep, emotional regulation and reducing rumination. Together these approaches give a mix of practical exercises and reflective conversation that a client can use between meetings.

Finding the right method is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then agree a collaborative plan. That plan can be adjusted as progress is made, so sessions remain focused on what the client actually needs.

Session formats are not specified here, so please confirm available online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed, while still enabling reflective conversation and practical homework between meetings.
