About Mihaela
Mihaela Marian welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief or relationship pain. She introduces a calm, accepting presence and helps people talk through what is troubling them. Sessions aim to build resilience, clarify what matters and find small, doable steps forward.
She works from a person-centred perspective that puts the client's experience at the centre. That means listening closely, reflecting what is heard and encouraging people to make their own choices.
Background and approach
Mihaela also draws on mindfulness practices to help with anxious thoughts and creative methods such as art or metaphor when words are not enough. Her background includes nearly two decades of roles in health and social care before qualifying as a therapeutic counsellor. That work included supporting people affected by dementia, learning disabilities, loss and bereavement, anxiety and depression.
This range of experience informs a practical, grounded approach in sessions. Mihaela is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She speaks English and Romanian and meets people in the United Kingdom.
International clients are not currently accepted. People start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions that suit their schedule. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How Mihaela works online
She also uses mindfulness practices to help manage racing thoughts and reduce nervous tension. Mindfulness work teaches short, practical ways to notice the present moment and lessen the grip of anxiety.
Finding the right way of working is part of the process and will be discussed together. The therapist will help the person identify which methods feel most useful based on their concerns, aims and what they prefer to try.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the session formats available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around daily life, reduce travel time and allow for a quicker check-in on a busy day. Some people prefer audio-only sessions to save bandwidth or to avoid being on camera, while others like video for more visual connection. Discussing practical arrangements in advance helps make sessions useful and manageable.
