About Anita
Anita Roy is a counsellor who helps people cope with anxiety, phobias, stress, depression and relationship difficulties. She also supports those dealing with trauma, grief, addictions and issues with self‑esteem. Anita works with clients on practical steps and honest conversation to make small, steady changes.
She uses a warm, interactive style that aims to make people feel heard. Sessions focus on clear goals and short-term strategies as well as longer term understanding.
Background and approach
Conversations are shaped by what each person needs rather than a fixed script. Anita draws on several approaches to tailor sessions, including cognitive behavioural ideas and client-centred listening. She also uses elements of acceptance and commitment work and attachment-informed thinking when these suit a client's situation.
Her style mixes talking with practical exercises, grounding work and behavioural experiments. With eight years of practice, Anita has supported people through many life changes. She pays attention to patterns such as avoidance, control issues and attachment difficulties.
This helps with a wide range of concerns from phobias and ADHD to eating worries and career stress. She is credentialed NCPS in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English. Anita encourages clients to set the pace, choose goals, and review progress regularly so therapy stays relevant and useful.
How Anita’s approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting ruled by them. It helps people who struggle with avoidance, fear and phobic responses to take small, values‑based steps towards what matters. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; this is useful for anxiety, phobias and mood difficulties.Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the process. Anita works with people to decide which methods fit their goals and day‑to‑day life. She checks in regularly and adjusts plans so therapy stays relevant and collaborative rather than one‑size‑fits‑all.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text‑based messaging. Video sessions allow face‑to‑face conversation and guided practice, phone sessions can be a good choice when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check‑ins and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping focus on practical skills and steady progress.
