About Mihaela

Mihaela Marian is a therapeutic counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief and low self-esteem. She works with people coping with life changes and supports those dealing with loss, separation and issues around commitment and attachment. Sessions are offered in English and Romanian and she practises in the United Kingdom.

Mihaela draws on a person-centred approach that focuses on listening and understanding each person as an individual. She aims to build a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk through painful experiences and begin to make sense of them. That approach is often combined with mindfulness practices to help reduce anxiety and improve awareness of the present moment.

Her background includes almost 20 years in health and social care roles before training as a counsellor, and three years working directly as a therapeutic practitioner. This experience includes supporting people affected by dementia and learning disabilities, bereavement, anxiety and depression. Those roles shaped her practical, down-to-earth style in sessions.

Mihaela also draws on creative methods when they suit a person’s needs, using art, music, symbols and metaphors to help express feelings that are hard to put into words. She aims to match practical tools to what someone wants to work on, whether that is coping with chronic illness, managing caregiver stress, or rebuilding life after a relationship ends.

People who choose her can expect a collaborative approach where the focus is on understanding what matters to them and finding ways to move forward at a manageable pace.

How Mihaela’s approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The counsellor provides an accepting, non-judgemental space where people can talk about what matters to them. This approach can help with anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and relationship concerns.

Mindfulness practice emphasises present-moment awareness and simple techniques for reducing worry. Learning short mindfulness exercises can support coping with stress and improve day-to-day calm.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss each person's needs, goals and preferences and agree which methods to try. That collaborative planning helps shape how sessions proceed and what practical tools are introduced.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into a busy week and more options for people who cannot travel. Because specific session formats were not listed in the biography, please confirm the available formats before booking. Sessions can be arranged to suit work patterns, caregiving responsibilities or other daily demands without promising a particular service.
