About Lorena

Lorena Borbinceane is a counsellor who works with thoughts and everyday habits to help people gain clarity and feel more connected to themselves. She holds NCPS and has six years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. Lorena aims to make the therapy space approachable and non-judgemental so people can speak freely about what matters to them.

Her practice combines several approaches rather than relying on one method. She centres sessions on the person’s experience, encouraging clients to notice patterns of thought and behaviour that get in the way of change. Sessions often focus on building awareness, practical coping skills, and clearer ways to communicate needs.

Lorena has worked in a range of organisations and with people facing different life stages and issues. She supports people dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, grief and life transitions. She also helps with relationship and family concerns, parenting questions, trauma and abuse matters, and challenges such as addiction, anger and low self-esteem.

Additional areas she addresses include attachment and abandonment issues, adoption and foster care experiences, chronic illness and cancer, autism spectrum concerns, codependency, and career or caregiving strain. She offers therapy in English and Romanian for people based in the United Kingdom.

Therapy with Lorena begins by exploring what you notice about your thoughts and habits. She works collaboratively to find practical steps you can try between sessions. To start, use the Start Therapy button, complete the short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to her availability.

How her approaches adapt to online work

Attachment-based work focuses on patterns in relationships and how early bonds influence present reactions; online sessions can be used to notice these patterns and practise different ways of relating. Client-centred work emphasises listening and helping people find their own answers, using the therapist's responses to reflect and deepen self-understanding. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and habits and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Lorena treats this as a collaboration - she will talk with the client about their goals and preferences and then try methods that fit those needs. Together they check what helps and adjust the focus as therapy progresses.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the available session formats before booking so you know what is offered. Online sessions can make fitting therapy into a busy week easier, enable shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. They also allow work on thought patterns and daily habits in the context of everyday life, making homework and real-world practice simpler to arrange.
