Therapeutic approaches and online support with Elisabeta Oltean



Elisabeta integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and client-centered approaches alongside mindfulness practices to support clients. ACT focuses on helping people clarify their values and commit to small, meaningful actions even when difficult thoughts or feelings arise - this can be helpful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space so clients can explore identity, relationships, and self-esteem at their own pace. Mindfulness therapy offers practical attention practices that help reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation, which can be useful for stress, anger, and sleep difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Elisabeta works collaboratively with each client to identify what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions are tailored and adjusted over time so the chosen methods stay aligned with the client's progress and priorities.

Online therapy with Elisabeta is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and circumstances. These options make it easier to access consistent support from home or while travelling, and allow clients to choose the format that feels most comfortable for them.
