Elisabeta Oltean , BACP

Elisabeta Oltean is a BACP-qualified therapist based in the United Kingdom who brings six years of clinical experience to her practice. She works in English and Romanian and supports individuals and families through a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, parenting challenges, and career transitions. As a member of the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - she follows professional standards for counselling and psychotherapy while tailoring her work to each person's needs.

Her approach draws on evidence-informed methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Existential and Mindfulness-based ideas, and Motivational Interviewing. This integrative orientation allows her to focus on building a strong therapeutic relationship, clarifying values and goals, and developing practical coping skills for day-to-day life. Elisabeta also addresses intimacy, self-esteem, sleeping difficulties, anger, and other areas where people seek greater resilience and clarity.

She accepts new clients, including international clients who prefer online work, and collaborates with each person to determine the best way to move forward. Elisabeta aims to create a supportive, respectful space where clients can explore change, heal from past wounds, and strengthen their capacity to manage life challenges.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Elisabeta commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centered and Mindfulness-oriented techniques in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being defined by them while clarifying personal values and taking committed steps toward a meaningful life - it is often used for anxiety, stress, and persistent sadness. Client-Centered Therapy places the person at the heart of the process by offering empathic listening and nonjudgmental support, which can be especially helpful for building self-esteem and working through relationship or family concerns. Mindfulness Therapy teaches practical attention and awareness skills to reduce reactivity and improve sleep, emotional regulation, and coping with life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Elisabeta works collaboratively with each person to identify what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts methods over time as those needs evolve.

Online work is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, family, or time zone differences and allow therapy to continue even when in-person meetings are impractical. Licensed professionals and therapists can effectively support progress through these remote formats while tailoring session style and frequency to each client.
