Cristian Andrei promotes his couples therapy courses online, although he is under investigation for rape and sexual assaults

Cristian Andrei continues to promote his “couples therapy” courses online, despite being the subject of a criminal case involving allegations of rape, sexual assault, fraud and practicing a profession without the legal right to do so. He charges 199 lei for participation in the courses, which are held remotely, and has announced Black Friday discounts.

Cristian Andrei was detained in the spring of this year following an investigative report published by PressOne. According to Newsweek Romania, he allegedly carried out activities specific to psychotherapy without specialized training and without a certificate authorizing him to practice. During these activities, he allegedly sexually assaulted former clients, taking advantage of their vulnerability. Cristian Andrei has denied the allegations.

The PressOne investigation, published in January 2026, included the testimonies of seven women. Subsequently, the College of Psychologists of Romania confirmed that he does not hold a certificate to practice psychotherapy. In September, Cristian Andrei threatened journalist Luiza Popovici, the author of the investigation, in a video posted on TikTok. The criminal case is ongoing, and Cristian Andrei is presumed innocent until a final court ruling.
