About Nicoleta

Nicoleta Porojanu brings 19 years of experience in mental health and wellbeing to her practice in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP registration and draws on years of work across clinical, voluntary and personal settings. Her background includes roles in palliative care, residential and supported living services, and personal psychotherapy.

She speaks English and accepts international clients. Nicoleta works with people facing relationship strain, family issues, trauma and abuse, grief and major life changes.

Background and approach

She also focuses on abandonment and attachment concerns, chronic illness and pain, caregiver stress, codependency, body image and communication problems. Sessions aim to help clients make sense of painful past events and manage current challenges. Her style is warm and compassionate.

She combines a range of approaches to suit the person in front of her rather than using one fixed method. That can mean reflective, exploratory conversations alongside practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. Nicoleta uses Client-Centred work to build trust and understanding, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to address thinking and behaviour patterns, and mindfulness to help clients feel more present.

She also draws on existential and Jungian ideas when they fit the client’s needs. Many clients come with complex, layered difficulties. Nicoleta aims to help people untangle these layers, make small changes, and find more ease in day-to-day life.

She supports people in taking the next steps toward healing and clearer choices.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on building a trusting relationship through empathic listening and non-judgemental support. It helps people feel heard and understood, which can be the foundation for addressing relationship or family concerns.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses straightforward exercises to test new ways of thinking. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and patterns that affect daily life.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce rumination and increase present-moment calm. This can be helpful for coping with chronic pain, stress and grief.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to choose methods that match their needs, goals and preferences. That might mean starting with supportive listening and then adding practical CBT tools or mindfulness exercises as agreed.

Online sessions make that collaborative work easier to fit into life. Video calls allow fuller conversation and visual connection. Phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option or useful for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing or need more flexible, brief contact. These formats help people access therapy from different locations and at times that work for them.
