WHO I AM
Alexandra Barbu
I am a clinical psychologist with over 10 years of experience in individual and couples therapy. My mission is to help you find clarity, balance, and the power to face your challenges.
I have worked with dozens of clients from diverse backgrounds, and each therapeutic journey has taught me that there is no universal recipe for healing. My approach is personalized, combining scientifically validated methods with deep empathy.
I believe that every person has within them the resources necessary for change. My role is to guide you in discovering them, in a safe, confidential, and judgment-free space.
