Adriana Panait, BACP

Adriana Panait welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, relationship strain or grief. She is introduced as a calm, respectful counsellor who aims to create a space where clients can speak honestly about what feels hard. Adriana works in English, French and Romanian and is based in the United Kingdom.

Adriana practises using a client-centred style. That means sessions focus on the person in front of her and what they need most. She also uses mindfulness techniques to help people notice their thoughts and feelings without getting swept away by them.

Her background includes four years of professional experience supporting people through family difficulties, depression, intimacy issues and life transitions. She has additional experience with topics such as attachment and abandonment worries, body image and forgiveness work. Adriana explains things plainly in sessions and tailors each plan to the individual rather than following a one-size-fits-all script.

Adriana is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which she holds as BACP. She encourages clients to take the first step at their own pace and recognises how difficult that can feel. Conversations tend to be practical, with simple strategies to manage symptoms alongside space to talk through painful experiences.

If you are thinking about therapy for career stress, isolation, coping with loss or relationship concerns, Adriana aims to help you clarify what you want and take steady steps toward it.

How client-centred and mindfulness work online

Adriana uses client-centred therapy, which focuses on the person's experience in the room and on what they say matters most. This approach helps people feel heard and helps shape sessions around personal goals rather than a fixed agenda. Mindfulness therapy is used alongside this work and teaches simple, practical ways to notice thoughts, physical sensations and emotions. It can help with anxiety, stress and moments of overwhelm by offering short practices to steady attention.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Adriana works collaboratively to decide what methods suit each person’s needs and preferences. She will check in regularly about what is helpful and adjust the plan as you go, so therapy stays relevant and practical.
