A little bit about us

Simona Constantin

Psychologist, Psychotherapist, Founder of the Psihoplan Center

Hi, I’m Simona—a certified psychologist and specialized psychotherapist. I run a private practice in Bucharest and also conduct therapy sessions online across multiple platforms.

For nearly 20 years, I worked as a legal advisor in multinational organizations worldwide. This experience, along with earning my MBA from the City University of Seattle, was my first exposure to multicultural environments. Over time, I became deeply dedicated to self-discovery and personal growth—my own included. This journey naturally led me to formal studies in psychology and mentorship programs with professionals from around the globe. Opening my private practice several years ago and collaborating with health clinics and publications has allowed me to pursue my passion and deepen my understanding of human nature every day.

Now in my 40s, I enjoy spending time with my family, exploring the outdoors on weekends, painting emotions, and writing reflections.

I believe that as human beings, we possess incredible resilience, whether by necessity or choice. We have the capacity to rise, stand on our own two feet, and continue our journey, drawing on inner resources we may not even realize we have. In the right context, this hidden strength can emerge, helping us achieve the well-being we seek. While we are the ones who best understand our own suffering, within us also lie the keys to liberation from sorrow and the ability to face reality as it is. Sometimes, a skilled therapist can be a valuable companion on this path.

In my private practice, I work with adults through individual and couple therapy or counseling sessions. My areas of expertise include stress management, anxiety, adapting to change (including integration into Romanian culture), navigating life transitions, workplace challenges, parenting concerns, anger management, divorce, intimacy and communication dynamics, as well as relationship and marriage counseling.

My therapeutic approach integrates Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Jungian Psychoanalysis, Reflexive and Positive Parenting, the Gottman Method, Narrative Therapy, and Art Therapy, allowing me to tailor each session to your unique needs.

I look forward to meeting you and supporting you on your journey!

Andrea Ivascu

Terapeut, Coach

My name is Andrea Ivascu and I have always wanted to better understand human nature. For this I went to schools, trainings, courses, workshops and read a lot of books and they all brought something to the puzzle of what makes us who we are. Eventually, it was the deep conversations with wise people, wonderful men and women who have been my mentors, inspiration or clients, that made the whole picture come together.

We cannot be something fixed or clearly defined. Vulnerability, self-acceptance, the courage to live authentically, to make our voices heard and the courage to say „no”, but also the courage to say „yes” despite fear, make us stronger, and give us the opportunity to explore our nuances as men and women.

Through my work I guide you, my client, to better know and understand yourself, gain
self-confidence, build self-respect and learn how to set healthy boundaries, but also to honor your own needs and limits. I accompany you from an inner space where personal and professional experience intertwine and together we learn to identify and access inner resources, set realistic goals and plan how to achieve them.

Come as you are, whether grieving after a relationship or job, feeling lost, confused or alone, distraught, mourning after the death of a loved one, or just seeking for answers as what makes you act and react the way you do. I will hold space for your suffering no matter how great or small, I will not judge whatever it is that you feel or say.

Because no man is an island and there is nothing wrong with wanting, asking and getting the help we all need from time to time.

If you are seeking help with your relationship, in couples therapy I invite you to open your hearts to each other in a safe, nonjudgmental space where your conflicts can make sense and can then draw creative solutions. Together you will learn to better identify your needs and express them in a way that the other one can understand. Because healthy communication means openness to listening to the other with empathy and it is very important to learn this secret language of love. It’s also important to remember that playing, laughing together, and giving each other time and attention strengthens and refreshes your relationship as a couple.
