About Lorena

Lorena Borbinceane is a counsellor registered with NCPS in the United Kingdom and has six years of professional experience. She works with people who are coping with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and family issues, stress and life changes. She also supports people facing parenting concerns, addiction, trauma, intimacy issues, low self-esteem and career pressures.

Her practice uses an integrative approach, combining person-centred methods with other psychotherapeutic techniques. Sessions focus on talking through current difficulties, recognising unhelpful patterns and building practical ways to manage feelings and reactions. Lorena encourages clients to notice what already helps them and to use those strengths when tackling new challenges.

She has worked in a range of organisations and with people at different life stages and circumstances. That background informs how she adapts sessions to ordinary problems like work stress, relationship strain or feeling stuck after a big life change. Lorena aims to help people gain clarity and feel more connected to their own values and choices.

Typical topics include processing loss and grief, coping with chronic health problems, handling anger and control issues, and working through attachment and abandonment concerns. She also offers support for body image, codependency and communication problems.

Lorena speaks English and Romanian. People who want to explore whether she is a fit are invited to use the site's matching and booking steps to start the process.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current ways of connecting with others. Online sessions using this approach often focus on patterns in relationships, trust and boundaries, which can help with intimacy issues, abandonment concerns and family problems.

Client-Centred Therapy places attention on the person's own experience and choices. The counsellor listens without directing, helping the client to name feelings, clarify priorities and build on existing strengths. This approach is useful for low self-esteem, depression and coping with life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. Practical exercises and short experiments between sessions help with anxiety, stress management and change in day-to-day habits.

Finding the right fit is part of the work. The therapist will discuss different approaches and decide together which methods match the client's needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative exploration can include trying one approach for a few sessions and adjusting if something else seems more helpful.

Confirm the current session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific online or in-person options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around study, shifts or commuting, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so sessions can slot into a busy week. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt techniques so they work over distance and around everyday life commitments.
