About Cristina

Cristina Nemes is a BACP-registered counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with seven years of clinical experience. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and eating difficulties. She also helps with relationship strain, grief, sleep problems and challenges like low self-esteem or coping with life changes.

Her background combines clinical psychology, psychotherapy and hypnotherapy alongside counselling skills. Cristina trained earnestly in these areas and has worked with people who have experienced PTSD and other trauma. She has also worked with children with learning differences using principles from applied behaviour analysis in earlier roles.

In sessions she uses practical, evidence-informed methods. That includes Emotionally-Focused Therapy, cognitive approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. She also draws on client-centred and attachment-based ways of working to focus on feelings and relationship patterns.

Cristina describes treatment as a mix of talking therapy with mindfulness and techniques that build emotional resilience. She helps people notice unhelpful thinking, accept difficult feelings and focus on life goals. Techniques from clinical hypnotherapy are part of her wider toolkit where appropriate.

She offers work in English and Romanian and has experience supporting people across diverse concerns, including neurodiversity and long-term health conditions. For people wanting to start, she asks that they follow the site process to complete a short questionnaire and book a first session.

How Cristina uses EFT, ACT and attachment work online

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on feelings and attachment patterns. It helps people name difficult emotions and see how those feelings shape their relationships and reactions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) uses mindfulness and values-based goals to help people move forward even with uncomfortable emotions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship experiences and how they influence current patterns and trust in others.

Finding the best fit is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide whether EFT, ACT or attachment-based ideas - or a blend - feels most useful for the issue at hand.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking since this profile does not list them explicitly. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by saving travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a lunch break. It also lets people continue therapy across locations and manage appointments around work or caregiving responsibilities. Registered or accredited professionals on the platform will discuss how to structure sessions to suit practical needs and day-to-day routines.
