Elisabeta Oltean, BACP

Elisabeta Oltean is a BACP-accredited therapist based in the United Kingdom with six years of professional experience supporting people through change and challenge. She works with individuals on a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, self-esteem, parenting and career difficulties, as well as intimacy-related problems and LGBT concerns. As a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), Elisabeta brings a professional, ethically informed approach to her work.

Her practice draws on evidence-informed approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered work, existential and mindfulness therapies, and motivational interviewing. These methods are used flexibly to help clients build coping skills, clarify values and goals, and increase psychological resilience when facing life transitions, loss, conflict or persistent patterns that cause distress. She emphasizes collaboration and respects each person as the expert in their own life.

Elisabeta offers therapy in English and Romanian and is open to working with international clients. Sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, allowing clients to find a format that fits their schedule and preferences. Her practice focuses on supporting practical change while attending to emotional experience and personal meaning, helping clients move toward more satisfying and manageable everyday life.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take action in line with those values. It teaches practical skills for noticing difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate behavior, which can be useful for anxiety, depression and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the client is listened to and respected. This approach helps people explore personal concerns, increase self-understanding and build confidence in their own decision-making. Mindfulness Therapy encourages present-moment awareness through simple practices that reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation, often supporting work with stress, insomnia and persistent worry.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Elisabeta works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods best match their needs, goals and preferences, and adapts techniques over time as progress unfolds. Clients are involved in shaping the focus and pace of therapy to ensure a good fit.

Online therapy with Elisabeta is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules and for people who live far from local services. These options make it easier to maintain regular sessions, access support during major transitions, and continue work between appointments while fitting therapy into everyday life.
