Ioana Mitrache , BACP

Ioana Mitrache is an experienced integrative holistic counsellor who helps people discover greater clarity, stability, and purpose. She works with individuals, couples, and groups, providing a calm, respectful space where people can explore their thoughts, feelings, and life experiences at a pace that feels right for them.

Her practice is relational and compassionate, combining evidence-based techniques with a systemic, holistic perspective. Ioana uses methods such as psychogenealogy to identify repeating family patterns and relational dynamics that may be contributing to current difficulties. This flexible, tailored approach is designed to respond to each person’s unique circumstances and goals.

In sessions with Ioana, people can expect to be treated with understanding and respect while building practical skills and insight to change unhelpful patterns. She does not see therapy as fixing someone but as creating a space for exploration, acceptance, and growth. Ioana holds BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and she accompanies clients with curiosity, honesty, and steady support as they work toward more meaningful connections and a stronger sense of wellbeing.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape patterns in current connections. It helps people understand attachment styles, rebuild trust, and improve relationship dynamics when past bonds affect present life. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening with empathy and helping the person lead the pace and direction of change. This approach supports self-exploration, self-acceptance, and personal growth for a wide range of concerns such as low self-esteem or life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) explores the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviours and offers practical tools to challenge unhelpful thinking and develop healthier coping strategies, often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Ioana will work collaboratively with each person to identify which methods best suit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors her work to the individual and adjusts plans as progress unfolds.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging provides flexibility for people with busy schedules, mobility limits, or those living in different locations. These options make it easier to attend regular sessions and maintain continuity of care while accessing skilled support from licensed professionals.
