About Adriana
Adriana Panait helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, relationship strain or low self-esteem. She greets new clients with a calm, non-judgemental approach and works to make the first steps easier. Adriana speaks English, French and Romanian and offers sessions from the United Kingdom.
She uses a client-centred style that places the person’s experience at the heart of sessions. That means conversation guided by the client’s priorities, and practical steps agreed together.
How Adriana works
She also draws on mindfulness techniques to help people manage intense emotions and find steadier rhythms in daily life. Adriana has four years of professional experience and holds BACP accreditation. Her background includes supporting people through life changes such as separation, relocation and career shifts.
She also pays attention to issues like attachment, abandonment and communication problems that often underlie repeated relationship difficulties. Common concerns she focuses on include compassion fatigue, coping after loss, intimacy-related worries, body image, impulsivity and isolation. She will work with each person to identify the small, manageable changes that add up to progress over time.
In sessions clients can expect a warm, respectful tone and collaborative planning. Adriana aims to tailor conversations and techniques to the individual, helping them build clearer coping strategies and make decisions with more confidence.

Online support options
How Adriana’s approaches translate to online counselling
Adriana uses client-centred counselling, which means the session follows the client’s priorities and pace. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what she hears and collaborates with the person to set goals and next steps. This approach is useful for a wide range of concerns from relationship communication to career stress.She also uses mindfulness therapy to teach simple, practical techniques for noticing thoughts and calming strong emotions. Mindfulness can help with anxiety, grief and periods of overwhelm by offering short exercises to bring focus and steady breathing into daily routines.
Finding the right approach is something to work through together. Adriana will check what helps you most, discuss different options and adapt methods as needs and goals change. The process is collaborative and paced to your comfort.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful when visual cues help the conversation, while phone sessions can be easier on low bandwidth or when being on camera is tiring. Live chat and messaging suit quick check-ins, brief reflections or when a written conversation feels easier. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, family and everyday life.
