About Elisabeta
Elisabeta Oltean is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with six years of professional experience. She works with adults on a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, grief, intimacy difficulties, sleeping problems and parenting strain.
Elisabeta uses several talk-based approaches to help people make sense of what is happening at home and at work. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centred methods to help people notice their values and act in line with them. Mindfulness-based techniques are also part of her work and are used to reduce reactivity and improve daily coping.
Her practice includes attention to family of origin issues, abandonment, attachment patterns and communication problems. She also addresses caregiver stress, codependency, commitment concerns and the emotional impact of divorce and separation. Sessions can cover practical skills for managing anger, improving sleep and rebuilding self-esteem.
Elisabeta works with people in English and Romanian and accepts international clients. She uses a subscription payment model that can be cancelled at any time; costs vary with location. To begin, clients use the site button to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.
Her approach is conversational and focused on practical steps. She encourages people to notice internal resources and to practise small, repeatable exercises between sessions. The emphasis is on improving day-to-day coping and clarifying what matters most to the individual.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and online work
Elisabeta uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify what matters to them and take small steps towards those values despite difficult thoughts or feelings. ACT is often used for anxiety, depression and life transitions because it focuses on meaningful action rather than symptom elimination.She also draws on Client-Centred Therapy, which prioritises the person's perspective and encourages exploration at a comfortable pace. This approach supports people who need to feel heard while they work through family history, attachment issues or relationship stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Elisabeta collaborates with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences, and she adapts techniques as progress is made. The process is practical and joint rather than one-size-fits-all.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Many people find online sessions helpful because they fit more easily into daily routines, allow shorter check-ins around work or childcare, and can use audio-only or video depending on energy and bandwidth. Registered or accredited professionals commonly use online work to keep therapy manageable within a busy life, and Elisabeta supports clients in deciding what will work best for them.
