About Ioana
Ioana Mitrache is a counsellor with eight years of practical experience. She works from the United Kingdom and offers help in both English and Romanian. Ioana holds BACP registration and focuses on helping people regain a sense of stability and direction in their lives.
Ioana uses a relational, client-centred stance that values each person's pace and priorities. Sessions aim to uncover patterns that keep someone stuck and to build simple, practical ways of coping. She draws on evidence-based ideas alongside broader, systemic thinking to tailor work to each person’s needs.
Common concerns she addresses include stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, depression and self-esteem. Ioana also supports people dealing with relationship difficulties, grief, intimacy issues, parenting strain, career worries and life transitions. She has additional focus areas such as attachment issues, autism and neurodiversity, body image, and caregiver stress.
In the room she encourages honest conversation and steady pacing. People who come for counselling can expect to reflect on life patterns, practise new ways of handling emotions, and try small experiments between sessions. The goal is clearer choices and more reliable emotional balance.
For those wanting to begin, she asks clients to use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire. Scheduling is then arranged according to the therapist’s availability and the platform’s process.
How Ioana’s approaches work in online counselling
Attachment-based work focuses on relationships and early bonds. It helps people notice how past connections shape current feelings and reactions, and supports kinder ways of relating to self and others.Client-centred counselling centres on the person’s experience. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what matters to the client and helps them find their own answers rather than giving directives. This suits people who want space to explore values and personal meaning.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses straightforward exercises to test beliefs and build new habits, which can be useful for anxiety, low mood and stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss options, try things out and adjust methods based on what the client needs and prefers. This is a collaborative process aimed at practical change and clearer decision-making.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm available options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into busy weeks, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules demand. It also allows people to meet with a counsellor from different locations, which can widen access to specific language skills or therapeutic styles.
