About Anita
Counsellor Anita Roy is registered with NCPS and has eight years' experience. She works with people in the United Kingdom on common issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, and addiction. She also supports people facing grief, trauma and abuse, parenting strains, career pressures and neurodiverse-related needs such as ADHD and autism.
Anita uses simple, direct conversation in sessions. She listens to what matters to the person and helps them name problems and practical next steps. Sessions focus on understanding patterns, learning coping skills and trying out small changes between meetings.
Her practice draws on several approaches that suit different problems. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps with unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy looks at values and what matters to the client. Attachment-based ideas are used where early relationships affect current patterns.
Anita aims to work collaboratively. She and the person set goals together and review progress. The work can include skills practice, checking how plans are going, and adjusting what is tried next.
She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people complete a short questionnaire and then schedule a first session through the site.
How her therapeutic approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people focus on what matters to them and take steps in that direction despite uncomfortable thoughts or feelings. It is often used for anxiety, stress and difficulties with motivation. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is commonly chosen for anxiety, depression and problem behaviours. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships affect current ways of relating and feeling safe with others. It can help when struggles with intimacy, trust or patterns in relationships are present. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and the presenting issue and agree together which methods to use. That decision is reviewed over time and adjusted if something is not helpful. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals often use video, phone or messaging in different combinations, and the choice can be based on practical needs like quieter surroundings or lower data use rather than on location.Areas of expertise
