About me
Hello, I'm Nicoleta
About me
I’m a London based psychologist, therapist and trauma specialist licensed in the UK and I have over 20 years of experience in the field of mental health and wellbeing in the clinical, voluntary and private sectors.
My professional identity has been shaped by a variety of roles, from clinical psychologist in a palliative care hospital, to manager of residential and supported living mental health services, and also psychotherapist and counsellor in private practice. I am a survivor of childhood trauma and Triple Negative Breast Cancer myself and I take great interest in working with trauma, relationships, addiction, depression, anxiety, and various others relational, social, physical and mental health challenges.
I feel that no one can go through life untouched and I use a caring and compassionate approach to help the couple unpack and heal your individual wounds and navigate adversities and hardship in life. My approach is holistic and integrative and in my work I blend a variety of tools and interventions and a variety of disciplines to help both partners in their process of self-discovery, healing and personal growth.
I am the host the Open To Happiness podcast and I am also the founder of the mental health charity The Significant You. I consider them both to be my gift to the humanity and I find it rewarding to share my learnings with others and guide them through conflict and pain, to ease suffering and promote happiness and fulfilment.
About you
You might be going as a couple through a recent or ongoing relationship struggle, perhaps a betrayal or a sense of estrangement that make you both unhappy, confused and in pain. Maybe the communication is poor, you do not feel heard and you have regular arguments and fights. You may be affected by emotional detachment or loss of intimacy on many levels, and that can make you feel unwanted and lonely sometimes. Or maybe the parenting has placed such strain on your relationship that made the wonderful connection you once had a distant memory.
That can make you frustrated and angry and it feels clear that you cannot continue like that anymore. Something needs to change and you are ready to start working on that.
You would like to be in a pleasant and loving relationship, where you can feel respected, loved and appreciated, and you feel it's time to reclaim that space.
This is all very possible. Start your couple journey and let me guide you find the cause of your struggles to do the necessary adjustments and reparation to finally resolve your relational problems.
I look forward to meeting you!

Nicoleta is kind and also direct and incisive. She deeply cares and uses both intuition and years of experience to inform her effective supportive work with us as a couple.
She’s amazing, I really thank her for everything she’s done for me and my partner. My days are much more productive and peaceful because of her. Nicoleta is kind and she is very professional.
