As a MA qualified counsellor, registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), my experience in this field spans over ten years. The last four years of experience gained here in the United Kingdom, where I have achieved over 800 hours of patient work.
I have a proven track record of supporting patient’s in a variety of different settings. Fully committed to providing person centric support, which empowers patient’s to make informed, well-balanced and educated decisions.
My knowledge in this field is extensive, and includes different areas of theoretical counselling approaches and their application to real world settings, specifically Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).
Extensive experience working with young adults, adults and elders with emotional disorders, anxiety, panic attack, depression, personality disorders, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and addiction issues to name a few.
I helped patient’s to define goals and plan action, to achieve personal, social and educational development. Following the implementation of the treatment plans and therapeutic process, I monitored the patient’s progress through regular meetings. I provided behavioural health education and crisis intervention.
Apart from all the professional aspects of my career, on a personal level I am calm and collected, composed, patient and empathetic which I believe are important and imperative in this line of work.

Mihaela has been a great support in my last few weeks of therapy. She listens to my concerns and builds the session around those concerns. Each week I have gained more confidence in myself thanks to the approach Mihaela has taken. She always sets some goals to work towards for the next session which gives me something to focus on for the week. She remains calm and professional which is just what I needed.

Mihaela is absolutely wonderful. She is very caring, friendly and made me feel comfortable immediately when we first started our sessions. She gave me some really helpful skills that helped with my anxiety, and when I missed a session (some extreme weather events/natural disasters etc), she consistently checked in on me to ensure that I was OK although I had given no explanation. I am very grateful to her and highly recommend anyone else speak to Mihaela.

Mihaela has been a fantastic therapist - she has guided me out of depression and anxiety which I now feel free of. She helped me to regain confidence in myself and abilities, to make sure I reward myself after an achievement, to live more in the present and therefore stop over thinking/worrying, to relax more and the list goes on. I am very grateful to her and cannot recommend her highly enough.
