About Elisabeta

Elisabeta Oltean offers calm, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief or major life changes. She helps clients who struggle with relationship issues, low self-esteem, addiction concerns, sleep problems and parenting strain. Sessions are offered in English and Romanian and she accepts clients internationally from the United Kingdom.

Elisabeta uses straightforward, people-focused methods. She works with approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centred Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy to help people notice what matters and take small, steady steps. Motivational Interviewing and Existential ideas also inform her way of working when useful.

Her background includes six years of professional experience and a BACP registration, which she keeps as part of her professional practice in the UK. She combines talking therapy with practical exercises to strengthen a person's sense of agency and day-to-day coping skills. Sessions often involve noticing thoughts, practising acceptance and choosing actions that reflect personal values.

Elisabeta also focuses on themes like attachment and abandonment, communication problems, codependency and family of origin issues. She supports people dealing with ageing and caregiver stress, body image concerns and intimacy-related difficulties. The work emphasises building resources a person already has and applying them to current problems.

For people wanting clear, down-to-earth help, she aims to make therapy a collaborative process. Prospective clients are invited to begin by using the Start Therapy button and completing a short matching questionnaire to arrange the first meeting.

How Elisabeta’s approaches translate to online work

Elisabeta often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice their thoughts and choose actions that match their values. ACT focuses on accepting difficult feelings while committing to meaningful steps, which can help with anxiety, depression and life transitions.

She also uses Client-Centred Therapy, which means the counsellor listens with empathy and follows the person's pace. This style supports people who need a steady, non-directive space to talk through relationship strain, grief and self-esteem concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options, try methods that fit the client's goals, and adjust plans based on what helps most. That collaborative process aims to make sessions useful and relevant to everyday life.

The original profile does not specify which online session formats are offered, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can use these benefits to help clients keep therapy practical and consistent while working on values, coping skills and clearer communication.
