About Ana
Ana Andreea Haynes is a counsellor who uses a compassionate, non-judgemental style to help people make sense of difficult experiences. She works in a straightforward way and aims to walk alongside clients as they explore what matters most to them. Ana uses clear listening and gentle reflection to support people through stressful times and big changes.
Her work often focuses on parenting concerns alongside anxiety, stress and grief. She also helps people dealing with trauma and abuse, addiction, low self-esteem and relationship problems.
Background and approach
Ana draws on experience supporting people who have endured serious harm and exploitation, and she can talk through how past events affect current coping and emotional safety. Ana’s approach values the individual story. She uses attachment-based ideas to look at relational patterns and emotionally-focused methods to help name and shift difficult feelings.
Client-centred principles guide sessions so the person sets the pace and direction of therapy. She also uses mindfulness to help people notice and tolerate strong emotions, and solution-focused tools to find small, practical steps forward. These practical methods can be useful when a parent needs concrete coping strategies or wants clearer day-to-day plans.
Ana is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and has three years of experience. She sees people in the United Kingdom and works in English and Romanian. Sessions are offered online in several formats to fit different needs.

Therapeutic approaches you can access online
Ana uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape present patterns. This approach helps people understand why certain interactions trigger strong reactions and supports shifts in how they relate to others.She also uses emotionally-focused therapy to help name, sit with and change painful emotions in the moment. This method is useful for working through intense feelings that affect parenting, intimacy and connection.
Client-centred practice underpins her sessions, meaning the person guides the pace and focus and the therapist follows with reflective listening and gentle support.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Ana will discuss goals and preferences and adapt her methods to suit what the client needs, whether that is exploring past events, reducing anxiety or building daily coping plans. The process is collaborative and responsive to change.
Online sessions offer practical benefits. Video calls let people use visual cues when that matters. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier on busy days. Live chat and text-based messaging suit short check-ins, quick reflections or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around parenting schedules and work commitments.
