About Andreea

Andreea Chirvase offers a person-centred and practical approach to therapy. She meets people with warmth and curiosity and helps them make sense of repeating patterns, difficult emotions, and relationship struggles. Andreea encourages honest reflection and gradual change rather than quick fixes, and she frames the work as a collaborative process.

Her style blends empathic listening with solution-focused techniques. That means sessions often move between making space to talk and trying small, achievable steps to shift thoughts and behaviours.

Background and approach

The aim is to help people notice unhelpful patterns and practise alternatives that feel manageable in day-to-day life. Relationships and identity are common themes in her work. She helps people explore how they relate to others and to themselves, look at boundaries and communication, and understand how past experiences shape present responses.

Andreea offers an affirming space for LGBT people navigating identity, belonging, and self-acceptance. She also supports people working through grief, trauma and abuse, anxiety, stress, low mood, and life transitions. This includes support for those processing historic sexual assault and abuse or redefining themselves after loss.

Practical coping strategies are introduced alongside emotional processing. Andreea holds a BACP membership, which is shown as BACP. She practices in the United Kingdom and has three years of clinical experience.

Sessions are offered using a mix of online formats to suit different needs and schedules.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Andreea works from a person-centred foundation that prioritises empathy, non-judgemental listening and the client’s pace. This approach helps people feel heard and understood before making changes, and it is useful for exploring identity, belonging and relationship concerns.

She also uses solution-focused techniques to identify small, practical steps that can be tried between sessions. These techniques help with managing anxiety, stress, low mood and everyday relationship or communication problems by breaking larger issues into achievable actions.

Finding the right way of working is a collaborative process. Andreea will talk with each person about what feels helpful and adapt the balance between reflection and practical tasks based on goals and preferences. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as progress is made.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues for deeper conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins, and chat or messaging allows flexible, on-the-go contact between appointments. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and daily life while keeping the focus on steady, practical progress.
