About Mirela

Mirela Prodan helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, loss or major life changes. She introduces a straightforward, calm presence to sessions so people can begin to talk about painful thoughts and feelings. Her approach aims to make the first steps feel manageable rather than daunting.

Mirela uses Client-Centred Therapy to build a respectful, non-judgemental space. That means listening closely and reflecting what a person brings, so they feel understood and more able to make choices.

Background and approach

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and trying practical ways to change them. Her background includes three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Mirela has supported people through grief, trauma and abuse, and the everyday pressures that affect self‑esteem and motivation.

She pays attention to relationship patterns such as attachment and abandonment issues, and to concerns linked to autism and Asperger syndrome. She also offers support around communication problems, separation and divorce, domestic violence, guilt and shame, and feelings of isolation or purposelessness. Mirela works with practical goals in mind.

Sessions can include exploring feelings, developing coping strategies, and trying small behavioural experiments between meetings. The overall aim is to help people regain a sense of control and move towards a clearer sense of purpose.

How Mirela’s approaches work online

Mirela uses Client‑Centred Therapy to focus on listening carefully and reflecting back what matters to a person. This approach helps people feel understood and makes it easier to work through painful feelings and decisions.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, which involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small, practical changes in thinking and behaviour. CBT can be useful for anxiety, low mood, stress and many everyday struggles.

Finding the right way of working is part of the process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together they will choose which approach, or mix of approaches, fits best. That collaboration means the work is shaped by what the person wants to achieve.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to give flexibility. Video calls are useful for face‑to‑face conversation, phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check‑ins, and messaging allows ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments.
