Nicoleta Porojanu, BACP

Nicoleta Porojanu is a London-based therapist with 19 years of experience across clinical, voluntary, and private mental health settings. Her professional background spans roles as a clinical psychologist working in palliative care, manager of residential and supported living services for people with mental health needs, and practice as a psychotherapist and counsellor. Those varied positions have informed an integrative practice that draws on a range of therapeutic tools to respond to complex life challenges.

She is a survivor of childhood trauma and of Triple Negative Breast Cancer, experiences that shape her empathic interest in trauma work, relationships, addiction, depression, anxiety and the many social, relational and physical issues that affect wellbeing. Nicoleta blends compassion with practical interventions to help people unpack past wounds, navigate losses and move through adversity toward greater resilience and meaning.

Her approach is holistic and client-focused, combining elements from different disciplines to support self-discovery, healing and personal growth. She teaches mindfulness skills, offers a trauma healing framework aimed at repairing relationships and reducing the weight of unresolved hurt, and supports clients as they find clarity and direction. Nicoleta also hosts the Open To Happiness podcast and founded the mental health charity The Significant You, activities she describes as ways to share learning and promote wellbeing.

Nicoleta holds BACP accreditation, indicating membership in the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and offers therapy in English to clients in the United Kingdom and internationally. She works collaboratively with people who want to move from surviving toward greater balance, connection and fulfilment.
