About me
Hi, I'm Nicoleta
I’m a Psychologist, Therapist and Trauma Specialist, host of the Open To Happiness podcast and founder of The Significant You mental health charity and I take great interest in healing relational trauma.
I tend to work with happiness seekers that have survived trauma and pain and are now ready to heal and transform, to see the world and experience life not as a victim, but as a learner, survivor and thriver.
Where are you now - You are going through a recent relationship struggle, significant loss, illness or career junction that add to the luggage you carry from the past. You are unhappy, confused and in pain and you are gradually awakening to the true nature of reality.
I have been there! From childhood trauma to TNBC, relationship issues and many loses in between, I know the sour taste of adversity and hardship.
Where you want to be – You would like to thrive, to feel at peace, balanced and in happy relationships. You want to start healing so you can savour the present moment and exude aliveness and vitality.
This is all very possible. Start your journey within and let me guide you in your self-discovery, healing and personal growth.
I will teach you to live a mindful life, grow awareness and find clarity and direction in life. I will guide you through my trauma healing model to free yourself from unresolved trauma and hurt, to repair your relationships and finally open to happiness and fulfilment.
If this speaks to you get in touch.

Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.

The UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) is a leading professional body for the education, training and regulation of psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors. Its register is accredited by the government's Professional Standards Authority.
As part of its commitment to protect the public, it works to improve access to psychotherapy, to support and disseminate research, to improve standards and to respond effectively to complaints against its members.
UKCP standards cover the range of different psychotherapies. Registration is obtained by training or accrediting with one of its member organisations, or by holding a European Certificate in Psychotherapy. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.

BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
