About Ana

Ana Fay is an NCPS counsellor and psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom with three years' experience. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, ADHD, addictions and a wide range of relationship and life-change concerns including anger. Ana offers sessions in English and Spanish.

Ana uses a person-centred way of working that puts the client’s experience first. She listens without judgement and helps people notice their own strengths. Sessions focus on what matters now and practical steps a person can try between meetings.

Her practice often looks at attachment and relationship patterns. This can include navigating abandonment issues, communication problems and commitment concerns. Ana also works with the emotional effects of chronic illness, caregiving stress and bereavement.

Ana draws on trauma-focused approaches when past events continue to affect daily life. She uses mindfulness techniques to help with overwhelming feelings and to slow reactivity. Existential questions about meaning and life direction are also part of her offering for people facing big changes.

She has experience supporting people with autism, ADHD and a range of neurodiverse needs. Ana aims to help clients build self-awareness, steadier coping skills and clearer ways to manage anger and frustration. Sessions are practical and paced to the individual.

To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Ana accepts international clients and works with people who want straightforward, down-to-earth help for everyday struggles.

How her approaches translate to online work

Ana blends person-centred practice with attachment-based ideas to focus on relationships and felt experience. Attachment-based work looks at patterns in close relationships and can help with anger that comes from trust or abandonment fears. Person-centred work means sessions are led around what the person brings and what feels most useful in the moment.

She also uses trauma-focused work and mindfulness techniques to help when past events keep affecting mood and reactions. Trauma-focused approaches aim to reduce the hold of difficult memories on daily life, while mindfulness gives practical tools to notice and regulate strong feelings without reacting automatically.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences with the client and try ways of working that fit the person’s needs. This collaborative planning helps decide which mix of attachment, trauma-focused or mindfulness tools to use.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow shorter check-ins during a break, or let them choose whether to be on camera. Talk with Ana about practical arrangements that suit daily life and communication needs.
