Elena Simona Lazar

Elena Simona Lazar is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with six years of experience and a BACP accreditation. She combines her background as a nurse with counselling skills to help people work through stress, anxiety, relationship and family issues. Elena also offers support for anger, self-esteem, addiction, trauma and related concerns in a direct, practical way.

Clients can expect a calm, non-judgemental space to talk about what is difficult. Sessions focus on making sense of feelings and patterns and finding small, manageable steps forward. Elena aims to help people build confidence and handle day-to-day pressures with more ease.

Her approach draws on Client-Centred Therapy, Internal Family Systems and Systemic Therapy, adapted to each person’s needs. She uses conversational work alongside techniques to clarify emotions and recurring situations. The aim is to increase awareness and reduce the overwhelm that often follows anger, grief or addictive behaviours.

Elena’s nursing background informs her practical focus on everyday life and coping strategies. She supports people dealing with career strain, caregiver stress, chronic illness and body image concerns as part of wider work on wellbeing. Work on relationships includes communication and navigating separation or blended family issues.

Sessions are offered in English and Romanian. Elena encourages a collaborative pace so clients feel understood and able to try new ways of relating to themselves and others. To start, users can follow the site booking steps and complete the short matching questionnaire.

How Elena’s approaches guide online work

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person at the centre of sessions, focusing on listening, empathy and helping people find their own answers; it is useful for worries about self-esteem, anxiety and emotional recovery. Internal Family Systems looks at different inner parts and how they relate to one another, helping with anger, trauma responses and patterns that repeat in relationships. Systemic Therapy considers relationships and broader life systems, which can help when family dynamics or blended families create repeated conflict.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Elena will discuss options with each person and adjust methods to match their goals and comfort level. The process is collaborative and paced so people can try what feels most helpful.

The therapist's profile does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also support continuity of work when life circumstances change, while decisions about camera use or session length are made together to suit each person's needs.
