About Elisabeta

Elisabeta Stancu helps people deal with stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties. She also supports clients facing intimacy concerns, depression, addiction, trauma and bereavement. Elisabeta works in English and Romanian and practises in the United Kingdom. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Elisabeta creates a calm space where people can say what they think and feel without being judged. Sessions are conversational and focused on the client’s lived experience. She encourages practical steps so clients can try small changes between meetings. Her work draws on client-centred ideas that put the person’s needs at the centre of therapy. She also uses solution-focused techniques to help people identify concrete next steps. Systemic and existential perspectives inform how she looks at relationships, identity and life transitions. Elisabeta has around six years of professional experience, including work in her country of origin before practising in the UK. That background informs her awareness of cultural and relational issues in therapy. People come to her with a wide range of concerns, including parenting stress, grief, eating issues, anger and career pressures. She also supports people coping with attachment or abandonment worries and the effects of family-of-origin problems. Taking the first step can feel hard and Elisabeta aims to make the process straightforward. She listens attentively, helps set practical goals and reviews progress with each person as therapy continues.

How Elisabeta’s approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of the work. The therapist listens closely and follows what matters most to the client, which helps with issues like anxiety, low self esteem and relationship concerns. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasises small, practical steps and clear goals; it can be useful for people looking for quick, actionable changes in day-to-day life. Systemic Therapy looks at how relationships and family patterns affect current problems and can help when difficulties involve communication or repeated cycles in a household.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Elisabeta will work together with each person to decide which ideas fit their needs and preferences. That may mean combining client-centred listening with solution-focused tasks or using systemic questions to map relationship patterns. The choice is collaborative and reviewed as therapy progresses.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find that regular online meetings help maintain progress and make it simpler to try practical steps between sessions.
