Book with TsvetaAbout Tsveta
Tsveta Encheva is a counsellor who blends person-centred care with practical cognitive behavioural techniques. She uses a warm, listening approach alongside clear strategies to help people manage anxiety, stress and relationship difficulties. Tsveta speaks English and Bulgarian and works from the United Kingdom.
With five years' experience, she has supported people facing grief, life transitions and the aftermath of trauma. She has also worked with young adults dealing with the pressures of college and university life, and with people adjusting to long-term health diagnoses.
Background and approach
Her background gives her a grounded view of how life events can affect everyday functioning. In sessions she offers steady emotional support while helping clients spot unhelpful patterns. She uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which focuses on changing thoughts and behaviours, alongside person-centred methods that prioritise the client's experience.
Mindfulness and somatic techniques are also part of her toolbox for managing stress and grounding the body. Many people seek help for self-esteem, intimacy issues, sleep difficulties, or career stress, and she works with those concerns in straightforward ways. Additional areas include mood disorders, panic, attachment difficulties, and caregiver stress.
She also includes LGBT-related issues among her focus areas. Practical steps in therapy might include short goal-setting, experimenting with new behaviours between sessions, and learning breathing or grounding exercises. Tsveta aims to make therapy feel manageable and relevant to daily life.
To begin, clients use the site's Start Therapy flow and schedule according to available times.

How her approaches translate to online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on being heard and understood. It gives space for the client to lead the conversation while the counsellor reflects and supports. This approach helps when someone needs a compassionate space to talk through feelings and decisions.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) works on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses simple exercises and experiments to change unhelpful patterns, which can be useful for anxiety, panic, mood difficulties and stress.
Mindfulness practices teach noticing the present moment and simple breathing or grounding techniques to reduce overwhelm. These methods often pair well with CBT tasks to manage physical symptoms of anxiety.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The counsellor will talk with the client about goals and preferences, then try methods that fit those aims. Clients and the counsellor adjust the plan together as needs change.
Confirm the session formats available before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit regular sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time. It also lets people keep continuity of care across moves or life changes while working with registered or accredited professionals.
