About Cristina
Cristina Nemes is a counsellor with seven years' experience supporting people through anxiety, depression, addiction and life changes. She holds BACP registration and works in the United Kingdom. Cristina speaks English and Romanian and accepts international clients.
Cristina’s approach blends talk therapy with practical skills. She uses methods drawn from cognitive behavioural ideas, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment work and emotion-focused techniques. Sessions focus on clearer thinking, managing emotions, and building resilience so day-to-day problems feel more manageable.
Background and approach
People come to Cristina with many concerns such as stress, trauma and abuse, eating difficulties, grief, and sleep problems. She also helps with relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting stresses, self-esteem, career questions, ADHD and compassion fatigue. Cristina pays attention to histories like abandonment, adoption and attachment issues when these come up in sessions.
Her style is collaborative and down to earth. She aims to help people set realistic goals, learn coping strategies and practise new ways of responding to old patterns. Work can include short practical exercises, reflective conversation and techniques to notice and change unhelpful thinking.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression and sleep problems. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people develop more supported ways of relating and managing emotions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then adapt methods in collaboration. That way sessions stay focused on what a person wants to change or improve.
The biography does not specify which online formats are offered, so please confirm current session options before booking. Many people find online appointments easier to fit around work, family and travel because they cut out commuting and can be scheduled more flexibly. Online sessions also make it simpler to maintain continuity while living abroad or travelling, and they allow sessions to be shorter or audio-only if that better fits a busy day.
