About me

Hello! My name is Ioana Oncioiu, and I am a clinical psychologist and psychotherapist accredited by „Colegiul Psihologilor din România”. I completed my studies at the Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences at "Babeș-Bolyai" University in Cluj-Napoca. I specialized in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy and currently, I offer psychological services in Bucharest and online. “We cannot be anything other than who we are, and we shouldn’t try to be. But we can always become better at being who we truly are.” (Fredrik Backman). I believe that the therapeutic process is, first and foremost, a space where people can discover and better understand their own nature. Change does not mean becoming someone else, but identifying the thoughts and behaviors that hold us back and gradually replacing them, through practice and reflection, with healthier ways of responding to life’s experiences. In my practice, I aim to create a safe environment based on trust and warmth, where clients can openly share the difficulties they are facing and explore the most appropriate ways to address them. Additionally, I combine techniques from various areas of psychotherapy (Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Schema Therapy) to best meet the needs of the person in front of me. Every step a client takes towards a better version of themselves means a lot to me, and while most of the credit goes to them, I am glad I can be there to support them in this journey.
