Mihaela Marian, BACP

Mihaela Marian offers warm, down-to-earth support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, loss or relationship pain. She introduces a calm, patient presence and helps clients talk through what matters most right now. Sessions are aimed at practical coping, rebuilding self-esteem and making sense of life changes.

She works from a client-centred approach that puts each person's experience at the heart of the work. That means she listens first, then follows the client's lead to explore feelings and options. The aim is to help people notice what matters to them and try new ways of coping.

Mihaela brings three years of formal counselling experience and a background in health and social care. Her earlier roles involved supporting people affected by dementia, learning disabilities, loss and long-term illness. Those roles shaped her skills in gentle listening and clear practical support.

She also pays attention to issues that often sit beneath everyday concerns, such as attachment and abandonment, body image, chronic pain and caregiver stress. She can support people dealing with bereavement, divorce and low self-worth, and those working through life-purpose questions.

Sessions are available in English and Romanian and delivered remotely by video, phone, live chat or text messaging. Mihaela is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, listed as BACP, and works with people in the United Kingdom.

Client-centred support delivered online

Client-centred therapy focuses on understanding your experience without judgement. The therapist listens deeply, reflects what she hears and helps you find your own answers; this approach can help with stress, anxiety, relationship worries and self-esteem issues.

Mihaela also draws on simple mindfulness practices to help people notice thoughts and feelings in the moment and reduce anxious rumination. These exercises are short and practical, useful when someone feels overwhelmed or stuck.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with you about your needs, goals and preferences, and together you will choose the methods that feel most helpful. That collaborative process makes it easier to try things and adjust as you go.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different lives. Video is useful for longer conversations and when visual connection helps. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and suit shorter check-ins. Live chat and messaging allow quick, written exchanges and flexibility across a busy day. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and travel.
