Elisabeta Oltean, BACP

Elisabeta Oltean is a BACP-registered therapist based in the United Kingdom with six years of professional practice. She draws on an integrative, client-centered orientation and evidence-informed methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Mindfulness techniques, and Motivational Interviewing to support people through stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, trauma, depression, and addictive behaviours. Elisabeta also addresses issues related to LGBT concerns, grief, intimacy, sleep problems, parenting challenges, anger, self-esteem, career transitions, and coping with life changes, and she incorporates coaching elements where helpful.

Fluent in English and Romanian, she works with clients in the UK and accepts international clients, offering flexible sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Her work attends to attachment and abandonment issues, body image, codependency, commitment and communication problems, family of origin wounds, and other relational patterns that influence wellbeing. Elisabeta focuses on helping people access and strengthen their inner resources so they can respond to situations with greater clarity and choice rather than simply reacting.

Her practice aims to be collaborative and goal-oriented, blending empathic listening with practical tools and experiments tailored to each person. Prospective clients can click Start Therapy to check availability and begin the intake process.

Therapeutic approaches and online therapy

Elisabeta uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centered and Mindfulness-based approaches to guide her online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters most to them and take committed action toward those values while learning to relate differently to difficult thoughts and feelings. Client-Centered therapy emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship in which the client’s own perspective leads the process. Mindfulness-based techniques teach present-moment awareness and simple practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation.

Choosing the right therapeutic approach is part of the process and Elisabeta works collaboratively with each person to find the best fit based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She combines relational listening with practical tools and will adjust methods as therapy progresses to match what is most helpful for the client.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, and shorter or ongoing support can be provided by live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to arrange appointments around work, family, or travel and allow registered professionals to provide continuity of care for clients living in different locations.
