Nicoleta Popa
I am an Integrative and EMDR Psychotherapist offering face-to-face counselling for adults in both Greenwich and London Bridge.
My practice provides a warm and confidential space where you can explore personal challenges, gain insight, and work towards meaningful change. I support individuals experiencing a wide range of difficulties, including depression, early relational trauma, family and relationship issues, abuse, attachment concerns, low self-esteem, life transitions, and bereavement.
Whether you’re facing a long-standing emotional pattern or a specific event that has left you feeling unsettled, counselling can bring clarity, support, and a renewed sense of hope and possibility.
At the heart of my work is a strong belief in the power of human connection. I see therapy as a collaborative relationship built on trust, openness, and respect. Creating a supportive and nurturing environment is essential for healing, and I aim to offer a space where you can feel both safe and understood. At the same time, I recognise that meaningful change often happens when we gently stretch beyond what feels comfortable. Because of this, my approach blends compassion with gentle challenge, encouraging you to explore new perspectives, face difficult emotions, and build emotional resilience at your own pace.
As an integrative therapist, I draw from a range of therapeutic models so that our work truly fits you. I recognise that every person is wonderfully complex, shaped by a rich combination of experiences, relationships, beliefs, and emotions. An integrative way of working allows us to consider all these interconnected aspects of your life. During our sessions, we may explore past experiences, early relationships, and unconscious patterns that might be impacting how you experience your life today. Understanding these deeper layers can help us get to the root of your difficulties rather than simply addressing surface symptoms.
Together, we will work towards developing healthier patterns of thinking, feeling, and relating. This may include building coping mechanisms that genuinely support your wellbeing, strengthening your sense of self-esteem, and improving the way you communicate your needs and boundaries. Throughout this process, I aim to help you cultivate greater self-compassion, acceptance, and confidence.
Therapy is not just about easing pain; it can also be a space to rediscover parts of yourself that may have been overlooked or silenced. Through therapy, you can gain a clearer understanding of what truly matters to you and feel more connected to your own inner resources.
I welcome clients from all backgrounds and life stages, and I hold a deep respect for the individuality of each person who walks through the door. My goal is to meet you exactly where you are, without judgement, and to support you in moving towards where you wish to be.
I have an MSc in Integrative Psychotherapy and I am a member of UKCP and BACP.
