About Carmen
Carmen Slobozeanu is a BACP-accredited counsellor in the United Kingdom with six years' experience. She works with adults on issues such as low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, trauma, stress and relationship and family concerns. Carmen also supports people facing loss, substance use, parenting strain and life transitions.
She takes an integrative approach that draws on client-centred listening alongside cognitive behavioural ideas and emotionally-focused ways of working. Sessions are straightforward: people talk about what matters to them, identify patterns that cause trouble, and try small changes between meetings.
Carmen uses practical exercises at times, such as noticing thoughts or testing out new ways of speaking with someone at home. She also includes reflective work that looks at past experiences and how these affect current relationships. The aim is to help people find clearer choices in day-to-day life.
Her background includes work with adults, children and young people across a range of difficulties. She can work in English and Romanian, and she has experience supporting issues that include grief, addiction, eating and sleeping problems, anger and compassion fatigue.
People who come to Carmen often want steady, plainspoken help sorting household and relationship stress, or support while coping with big life changes. Her sessions focus on practical steps and on understanding how feelings and behaviour connect in everyday situations.
How sessions work
How Carmen uses therapy approaches online
Client-centred therapy places the person at the heart of sessions. The therapist listens without judgement, helps people name what matters and follows their priorities. This works well for people who need space to talk about family pressures, grief or stress.Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. Online CBT often involves short practical exercises, tracking patterns and testing small changes between sessions. It can help with anxiety, low mood, sleep and coping with everyday responsibilities.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on emotions in close relationships and how people connect. Online sessions using EFT-style ideas can help someone notice interaction patterns, practise different ways of expressing needs and build clearer communication habits at home.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Carmen will discuss options with the client and agree a plan based on needs, goals and what feels workable. This is a collaborative process and can be adjusted as therapy progresses.
Confirm the precise session formats before booking because the biography does not list them. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into busy days, reduce travel time and allow short check-ins during a break. Others prefer longer appointments that mirror a face-to-face rhythm. Discuss scheduling and session length when arranging the first appointment.
