About Bianca
Bianca Barbu is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties and depression. She works with those coping with trauma, parenting strain, grief and self-esteem concerns. Bianca aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable and straightforward.
She creates an open, non-judgemental space where people can talk through difficult thoughts and feelings. Conversations are paced to each person, with practical ways to try between sessions.
Background and approach
The focus is on what matters most to the client right now and on small, realistic changes. Bianca brings six years of professional experience to her work and holds BACP accreditation. She draws on approaches that look at attachment, trauma and wider family patterns to understand difficulties.
These methods are used to help people notice how past experiences affect present relationships and coping styles. Sessions are collaborative and centred on the client’s priorities. Bianca listens for patterns in relationships, communication and emotional response, then helps people test new ways of relating or managing stress.
She also supports people dealing with loss and life transitions. Practical matters are kept simple. Bianca offers conversations that aim to help people feel steadier, clearer and more able to handle everyday demands.
Her style is warm, direct and focused on finding what works for each person.

Approaches Bianca lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
She also draws on Trauma-Focused methods to address the effects of past harm. These approaches focus on stabilising distressing reactions and developing new ways to respond when memories or triggers are present.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss options and decide together with the client which methods to try based on their needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative conversation helps shape the plan for therapy.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for a close, conversational feel. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier when concentration is the priority. Live chat or messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and day-to-day life while keeping the focus on practical change and emotional relief.
