Lorena Borbinceane, NCPS

Lorena Borbinceane, NCPS, offers a person-centred, integrative counselling style that aims to help people feel heard and understood. She creates an open atmosphere where thoughts and feelings can be shared without judgement. Lorena encourages small, practical steps toward calmer days and clearer thinking for people coping with difficult emotions.

Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas alongside cognitive behavioural techniques. She also uses EMDR and hypnotherapy where appropriate, combining methods to suit each person's needs. Lorena has six years of professional experience working across different organisations and age groups.

People come to her with a wide range of concerns. These include stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, addiction, and difficulty managing life changes. She also supports clients facing parenting strain, career questions, low self-esteem, anger, and compassion fatigue.

Additional areas Lorena can address include abandonment experiences, adoption and foster care matters, attachment difficulties, autism and Asperger Syndrome related concerns, body image, chronic illness and pain, codependency, communication problems, control issues, domestic violence, family problems, guilt and shame. She encourages exploration at a pace that feels safe for the person.

Lorena speaks English and Romanian and practices in the United Kingdom. Her work aims to help people gain awareness, emotional relief and a clearer sense of self so they can move forward more authentically.

How Lorena’s approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. In practice this means talking about connection, trust and how to feel more at ease in relationships. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) helps people spot unhelpful thinking and try practical, small experiments to change habits. EMDR is aimed at processing distressing memories by using guided bilateral stimulation alongside talking to reduce their hold over daily life.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and offer options based on what feels most useful. Together they will try methods and adjust the plan if something does not fit.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the exact formats available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around busy days and reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, or let someone avoid needing to be on camera if that helps them engage. Ask about the practical arrangements and frequency when you book so sessions match your routine and needs.
