About Petra
Petra Alena Todorov draws on psychodynamic, trauma-focused and systemic ideas to help people manage stress, anxiety and relationship difficulties. She uses a collaborative style and practical conversation to make sense of how past patterns affect present life. Petra is presented here with her BACP credential and eight years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom.
Petra focuses on issues such as grief, low self-esteem and the strains of caregiving. She also works with people facing abandonment, attachment concerns, codependency, infidelity and separation. Practical coaching is offered alongside therapeutic work to support clearer decisions and measurable steps forward.
Her background includes long experience in global organisations, which informs her attention to identity, culture and workplace wellbeing. That experience is used to help people translate insights into everyday routines and work relationships. Sessions look at communication patterns, repeated emotional responses and how to try new ways of relating.
Petra aims to create a responsive and respectful space for exploration. Conversations tend to be grounded and straightforward, focusing on what feels useful now. She invites clients to test different approaches and to develop small, sustainable changes between sessions.
Sessions are conducted in English and Romanian and take place in the United Kingdom. Petra uses a subscription model for appointments, which can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to the therapist's availability.
How Petra's approaches shape online therapy
Psychodynamic work looks at how past relationships shape current feelings and behaviour. It helps people notice repeating patterns and try different responses in work and personal life.Trauma-focused therapy attends to how overwhelming events influence emotions, memory and reactivity. This approach helps people develop steadier ways of managing anxiety, flashbacks or emotional overwhelm following painful experiences.
Systemic therapy examines interactions and roles within relationships and groups. It can be useful for understanding recurring conflicts, communication problems and how change in one area affects the rest of life.
Choosing the right approach is a shared task. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has or has not helped before, and together they will decide what to try first. That collaborative process can be adjusted as work progresses.
Session options are not specified in the original profile, so please confirm current formats before booking. Many people find online work helpful because it can fit around work hours, remove travel time and make it easier to have shorter check-ins when needed. If you want to combine coaching with deeper therapeutic work, mention that in the questionnaire so the therapist can plan sessions that suit your day-to-day life.
