About Livia Maria Nestianu

Following a foundation in psychology, Livia Maria Nestianu completed training in counselling and psychotherapy and works as an integrative counsellor who adapts to each person she meets. She blends a range of methods and theories to match individual needs, drawing on person-centered therapy, attachment theory, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and compassion-focused approaches. By tailoring her style to the client rather than fitting the client to a single method, she supports exploration of thoughts, emotions and relationship patterns in ways that feel relevant and manageable.

Sessions provide a supportive environment for open conversation about challenges, helping clients reflect on different parts of themselves and develop practical ways to cope. The pace and focus are shaped collaboratively so that therapeutic work fits the client’s goals and life circumstances. She holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - reflecting professional affiliation with the UK counselling community.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them, and focuses on taking meaningful action based on personal values - it can be useful for anxiety, low mood and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns of relating formed in early relationships and how they affect current connections, which can be helpful for relationship issues, abandonment concerns and intimacy-related difficulties. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a non-judgemental, empathic therapeutic relationship in which the client’s experience directs the pace and topics of work, supporting self-exploration and self-esteem development.

Registered professionals and therapists often combine elements from different approaches to meet each person’s needs. Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process; Livia works collaboratively with clients to identify what fits best based on their goals, preferences and circumstances.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging make it easier to access support around work, caregiving or mobility constraints. These options allow clients to maintain continuity of care, fit sessions into busy lives, and work with a therapist in a way that feels most comfortable and accessible.
