About me

[EN] I am Andreea (she /her) a Romanian UK trained qualified Counsellor (MSc Counselling and Psychotherapy) and member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. I have spent most of my adult life abroad, in different countries and have become familiar with some of the difficulties that can arise when trying to adapt to a new culture, ways of working, studying and being. My lived experience is also backed by specialist training in working with people with a migration background at the International Psychosocial Organisation in Berlin. I offer counselling in Romanian and English. I am happy for us to meet for a free 15-20 mins initial consultation to see whether we can work together. Concession rates are offered on a case by case basis (students, low income). Do feel free to contact me for more details around that. [RO] Sunt Andreea, terapeut cu formarea in UK (MSc Counsiliere psihologica si Psihoterapie) si membra a Asociatiei Britanice pentru Consiliere Psihologica si Psihoterapie. Mi-am petrecut majoritatea vietii de adult in afara Romaniei si am experimentat parte din dificultatile ce pot aparea odata cu adaparea la viata intr-o cultura noua, la un mod diferit de a trai, de munci si de a invata. Experienta mea m-a facut sa ma orientez spre o specializare focusata lucrul cu imigranti in Berlin. Ofer sesiuni de consiliere psihologica in limba Romana si Engleza. Mi-ar face placere sa avem o conversatie telefonica de 15-20 de minute pentru a vedea daca putem lucra impreuna. Sunt deschisa sa ofer sesiuni la un pret redus pentru studenti si persoane cu venituri mici, ma puteti contacta pentru detalii.

My approach

[EN] If you are experiencing low mood, anxiety, grief, relationship problems, low self-esteem, loss of identity, a life transition (in relationships, educational, career-related, moving to a new place) you can contact me for the free initial meeting. I am trained in person-centred therapy and psychodynamic counselling. I believe in a collaborative approach which means we can decide, together what works in the here-and-now according to your specific needs. I am happy to work short-term as well as long term. At the core of my approach is the belief that you are the expert in your own life. I can accompany you on your journey in a deeply empathic manner, exploring your feelings, thoughts, and values to help discover new ways of dealing with the difficulties you encounter. [RO] Daca va confruntati cu anixietate, stima de sine scazuta, probleme in relatie, o pierdere, o perioada de tranzitie (in relatii, in cariera, educationala, mutare intr-un loc nou) ma puteti contacta pentru o consultatie initiala gratuita. Formarea mea este in terapie centrata pe persoana si consiliere psihodinamica. Cred ca o abordare colaborativa este esentiala, ceea ce inseamna ca putem decide impreuna de ce este nevoie in aici-si-acum in functie de nevoile dumneavoastra specifice. Putem lucra atat pe termen scurt, cat si pe termen lung. Abordarea mea este bazata pe convingerea ca adevaratul expert in propria viata este clientul. Va pot insoti in aceasta calatorie de explorare a emotiilor, gandurilor si valorilor pentru a va sprijini in a gasi moduri noi de a face fata dificultatilor pe care le intampinati.
