Irina Florea

Irina Florea is a counsellor who supports people facing anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, grief and relationship or family difficulties. She also helps those dealing with burnout, addiction concerns, sleep problems and the challenges of big life changes. Irina uses plain conversation and practical tools to help people feel steadier and more confident.

Her approach is warm, clear and collaborative. She listens for the patterns that keep people feeling stuck and traces them back to early relationships and attachment dynamics. Sessions often blend talking with gentle body-awareness practices, grounding and straightforward coping strategies to manage overwhelm and regulate the nervous system.

Irina works with a trauma-informed lens and pays attention to neurodiversity and ADHD as part of the picture. She encourages curiosity about how family history, culture and migration shape identity and relationships. This makes her work relevant for people navigating belonging, loss or changing roles after moving countries.

Practical structure is part of her offer. Therapy can be short-term or longer depending on a person’s goals. Irina aims to balance support with challenge, helping people try small changes between sessions and notice what shifts.

When she is not working she enjoys running, long walks with her dog and time with her partner and friends. She values periods of rest and quiet as part of staying grounded and connected to what matters.

How attachment and client-centred work translate online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people see where feelings of abandonment, anxiousness or avoidance come from and supports building steadier connections in daily life.

Client-Centred Therapy centres the person’s experience. The therapist offers curious listening, empathy and acceptance while helping the client find their own insights and make practical changes. This approach can help with self-esteem, decision-making and emotional clarity.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and how you respond to different methods. Together you decide whether to emphasise attachment work, client-centred exploration, psychodynamic reflections or other elements from her toolkit.

Please confirm available session formats before booking, as the supplied biography does not list them. Many people find online therapy helps fit sessions around work, caring duties or study. It can reduce travel time, make shorter check-ins possible and allow sessions when relocating or living between countries. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt grounding exercises and body-awareness practices for online sessions so you can practise tools between meetings and apply them in everyday situations.
