About Irina

Irina Florea is a counsellor (BACP) based in the United Kingdom who supports people handling stress, anxiety, grief and relationship difficulties. She also helps with low self-esteem, burnout, addiction concerns, parenting strain and coping with life changes. Irina speaks English and Romanian and aims to create a warm, clear and collaborative space for her clients.

Irina listens for the patterns that leave people feeling overwhelmed or ‘‘never enough’’. She helps map where those patterns come from and tries practical steps to change them. Work can include gentle body-awareness practices, grounding and mindfulness tools to help with nervous system regulation alongside talking things through.

Her approach is informed by attachment ideas and psychodynamic thinking, with a client-centred emphasis on the person in front of her. Sessions aim to balance challenge and support so people can build steadiness, clarity and confidence at their own pace.

Irina has four years of clinical experience and holds BACP accreditation. She has experience with neurodiversity and ADHD, compassion fatigue, complex family dynamics, and issues that come up when people move between cultures. This background informs how she frames questions about identity, belonging and change.

Practical concerns are part of the work. Irina offers short or longer-term therapy depending on goals and uses clear structure and hands-on tools to help people notice change. To begin, readers are invited to use the Start Therapy flow on the site to complete a short questionnaire and schedule a session.

How Irina’s approaches work in online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape how people connect today. It looks at patterns of closeness and distance and can help with anxiety, relationship struggles and attachment issues. Client-Centred Therapy puts the person at the centre of the work. The therapist listens deeply, reflects what is heard and helps people find their own answers and direction.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Irina will work collaboratively to see which mix of methods fits best for the person’s goals, needs and preferences. That choice can change as work progresses and is revisited together.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow continuity when circumstances shift. If you need clarity about which session formats are currently offered, please confirm the options before booking. The aim is to help therapy slot into everyday routines so clients can practise new skills between meetings and build steady change.
