About Cristina
Cristina Nemes is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with seven years of practice. She holds BACP accreditation and speaks English and Romanian. Cristina focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, mood concerns and parenting challenges in simple, practical ways.
Cristina uses a mix of talking therapies and therapeutic tools that aim to change unhelpful thoughts and build emotional skills. Sessions tend to focus on small, manageable steps clients can try between meetings.
Background and approach
She supports people facing grief, addictions, eating difficulties, sleeping problems and relationship concerns, as well as those coping with life transitions and career stress. Her approach draws on cognitive behavioural ideas alongside acceptance and mindfulness-based work to help people respond differently to difficult feelings. Cristina also uses attachment-informed ways of understanding patterns in relationships and self-esteem issues.
She aims to help clients notice old patterns and practise new, more helpful responses. People can expect a calm, collaborative style that emphasises real-life change. Conversations explore what matters to the client and practical strategies to reach those goals.
Over time the focus is on increasing emotional resilience and clearer day-to-day routines. Cristina works with a wide range of concerns including ADHD, bipolar, compassion fatigue, and intimacy-related issues. She also addresses specific topics such as adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, chronic illness, body image and communication difficulties.
Her practical focus makes sessions suitable for parents seeking help with parenting stress and related challenges.

Therapeutic approaches adapted for online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps you notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on what matters most to you. It uses simple exercises to build values-based action and improve day-to-day coping with stress and anxiety.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches practical skills to change patterns that cause distress. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and sleep difficulties through clear, step-by-step strategies.
Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns in relationships that affect how you relate to others and yourself. This approach can be useful for issues with intimacy, self-esteem and relationship tensions by helping people develop new ways of connecting.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then tailor methods from these approaches in collaboration with you.
Online sessions are available as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video is useful for deeper conversational work, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can fit short check-ins or ongoing support between meetings. These options help people fit therapy around work, family and busy schedules while keeping the focus on progress and practical change.
