About Elena

Elena Simona Lazar brings six years of counselling experience and a background in nursing to her practice. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Elena aims to make the first steps toward therapy feel manageable for people who are anxious or overwhelmed.

She focuses on everyday difficulties like stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. Relationship and family concerns feature often, including intimacy-related issues, communication problems and separation.

Background and approach

She also supports people facing addiction, chronic illness, caregiving strain and work-related stress. Elena uses a person-centred stance in sessions to help people feel heard and respected. She also draws on Internal Family Systems ideas to notice different parts of a person’s inner experience.

Systemic therapy helps her look at how relationships and family patterns affect current struggles. Sessions aim to create clearer thinking about what is happening and practical ways to respond. Elena guides clients to notice feelings, try small changes and build on strengths.

Techniques are adapted to each person rather than following a fixed formula. She offers therapy in English and Romanian and works with adults based in the United Kingdom. Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging.

Therapy uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and session cost varies with location and therapist availability.

How Elena's approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy places your experience at the centre of the work. The counsellor listens closely and follows what matters to you, helping you notice feelings and make small changes. This approach is useful when someone needs an accepting space to talk through stress, low mood or relationship worries.

Internal Family Systems helps identify different parts of your inner life - for example a protective part or a worried part - and to relate to those parts with curiosity rather than self-criticism. It can be helpful for anxiety, trauma responses and patterns that repeat in relationships.

Systemic Therapy looks at how family and relationship patterns influence current problems. This view can clarify communication issues, blended family stress and recurring conflicts so you can try different ways of relating.

Deciding which approach fits best is part of the work. Elena will talk with you about your goals, needs and preferences and together you can try methods that suit you. The aim is to find a collaborative way forward rather than sticking to one fixed method.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are handy for brief check-ins, reflective messages or when fitting therapy into a busy day. Many people find the range of formats helps them keep momentum and fit sessions around work, family and other commitments.
