About Ana-Maria
Ana-Maria Anica is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years of practice. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, grief and problems with self-esteem. She also supports those dealing with stress, anger and life transitions.
Ana-Maria uses an integrative way of working, drawing on client-centred practice and mindfulness alongside other methods. Sessions focus on breaking problems into manageable steps. She helps clients notice patterns that keep causing the same problems and then tries out small changes together.
Many people come to her feeling stuck, overwhelmed or unsure what to try next. In sessions she offers straightforward tools as well as time to reflect on deeper patterns. Conversations aim to be practical and clear, not overloaded with jargon.
She also works with issues linked to addiction, intimacy, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting pressures and career strain. Additional areas of focus include attachment issues, codependency, bereavement, and the stress that comes with caring roles.
Sessions are offered in English and Romanian. Ana-Maria encourages people to take the first step by completing a short matching questionnaire and booking an initial appointment to see how the work feels.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Ana-Maria draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centred work alongside mindfulness. ACT helps you notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on actions that matter to you rather than trying to remove difficult feelings. Client-centred work puts your priorities at the centre and uses open conversation to build clarity. Mindfulness offers simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and ground difficult moments.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Ana-Maria will discuss goals and preferences and together you will decide which methods to try first. This is a collaborative process that can change as needs or goals shift over time.
Session formats are not detailed in the profile, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and offer a quieter setting when that helps concentration. Registered or accredited professionals can use different formats to suit practical needs, and Ana-Maria will help arrange a way of meeting that fits everyday life.
