About Cristina

Cristina Nemes is a psychologist and counsellor with seven years of clinical experience. She holds a Master’s in Clinical Psychology and Intervention Techniques by Counselling and Psychotherapy and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Cristina writes simply and directly about change and growth, and she invites people to work on practical steps toward feeling better.

Her approach mixes cognitive work with mindfulness and therapies that focus on attachment and emotions. Sessions typically aim to strengthen self-esteem, build emotional resilience, and shift unhelpful thinking. Cristina outlines goals with each person and keeps the focus on everyday progress rather than technical jargon.

She commonly helps people tackling anxiety, depression, addiction and trauma. Cristina also works with eating concerns, sleep problems, grief, intimacy-related worries and stress linked to caregiving or work. Codependency and relationship patterns are listed among her areas of focus when those themes come up in therapy.

Cristina uses a range of methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural approaches and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy alongside client-centred and attachment-based work. She explains techniques plainly and practices them in ways people can use between sessions.

Sessions are conducted in English and Romanian and Cristina accepts international clients. The emphasis is on helping people set realistic goals, learn coping skills and make steady changes to daily life.

Therapeutic approaches for online work and practical change

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing them with practical experiments and behaviour changes, which can help with anxiety, depression and sleep problems. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and aims to develop more secure ways of relating and emotional regulation, which can be helpful for intimacy issues and codependency.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their goals, needs and preferences. That means adapting techniques over time and checking in about what is or isn't helpful.

Confirm the session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins on a lunch break. It also makes scheduling across time zones possible for international clients. The practical aim is the same as face-to-face work - learn tools, try them out in daily life and review progress with the therapist.
