About Carmen
Carmen Slobozeanu is a counsellor and an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has six years of practice helping adults with emotional and life challenges. Carmen uses a direct but compassionate style to make people feel heard and respected.
Her background includes work across a wide range of concerns such as stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports people with addictions, relationship and intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting strain, anger, career concerns and adjusting to life changes.
How Carmen works
Additional focus areas include attachment issues, body image, coping with illness and ageing, and problems related to separation and bereavement. Carmen draws on client-centred principles alongside cognitive behavioural ideas and emotionally focused work. She pays attention to how thoughts, feelings and relationships interact and uses straightforward tools to help people make small, practical changes.
Sessions are warm and non-judgemental, with emphasis on listening first and then working collaboratively on goals. She offers therapy in English and Romanian and accepts international clients. Session formats include video calls, telephone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging.
Carmen describes herself as empathic, open-minded and respectful, and she invites people to take steps toward greater self-understanding. To start, a short questionnaire and a scheduling step match someone with Carmen and set up the first appointment. Fees vary with location and a subscription model is used that can be cancelled at any time.

Online support options
Approaches that guide online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and creating a respectful, accepting space so people can explore their feelings and priorities. It helps when someone needs a supportive place to talk through stress, grief or low self-esteem.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, sleep issues and coping with life changes.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) pays attention to emotions in relationships and helps people understand and shift interaction patterns that cause distress. It can be helpful for intimacy-related concerns and communication problems.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Carmen will discuss goals, listen to what matters to the client, and agree together which methods to try. That shared decision-making means the plan can change as needs become clearer.
Online therapy with Carmen is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video calls are useful when visual connection matters, phone sessions suit those with limited bandwidth, live chat can be a quick way to check in, and text-based messaging works for shorter, ongoing support. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel and to use the format that best suits daily life.
