Angela Diac, BACP, NCPS

Angela Diac is a UK licensed psychotherapist with 12 years of clinical experience who offers online short- and long-term counselling and psychotherapy for anxiety, stress, depression, grief and loss, trauma, relationship difficulties and major life transitions. She works with clients facing a wide range of concerns - from the unique challenges of expat life to parenting, family difficulties and intimacy-related issues - using a compassionate, client-led approach that prioritises each person’s pace and priorities.

As an expat herself, Angela understands the disorientation, loneliness and sense of uncertainty relocation can bring. She supports people who feel stuck, overwhelmed or unsure whether to stay or return home, helping them explore values and beliefs, learn practical coping skills, and regain a clearer sense of purpose. Her practice welcomes emotional expression at every stage - tears of sadness or joy are accepted regardless of age, background, sex or skin colour.

Angela’s core way of working is person-centred, with formal study in Existential, Psychodynamic and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). She integrates evidence-based techniques to address issues such as trauma and abuse, bereavement, stress and adjustment, self-esteem, and relationship conflict. Angela holds BACP and NCPS credentials, reflecting her professional registrations and memberships. She offers therapy in English and Romanian and provides appointments online, guiding clients toward greater self-acceptance, emotional awareness and practical change.

Person-Centred and Practical Approaches for Online Support

Angela combines a person-centred philosophy with evidence-based techniques to tailor online therapy to each client’s needs. The Person-Centred Approach focuses on understanding the client’s experience without judgement and supporting self-discovery and personal growth - it is helpful for building self-esteem, navigating life transitions, and processing difficult emotions.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is used to identify and gently challenge unhelpful thinking patterns and to develop practical coping skills. It suits people dealing with anxiety, stress, depression and specific behavioural patterns that feel stuck. Angela also draws on psychodynamic ideas to explore patterns rooted in past relationships and attachment, which can help with deeper relational and identity concerns.

Choosing the right therapeutic approach is part of the work together. Angela treats the process as collaborative - she listens to individual goals, assesses what resonates, and adapts methods so clients feel understood and empowered to try new ways of relating and coping.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging offers flexibility for busy lives, supports access across locations within the UK, and makes it easier to fit therapy into daily routines. These options allow registered professionals like Angela to provide consistent support while accommodating different communication preferences and practical needs.
