Anita Roy, NCPS

Anita Roy is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strains, grief, low self-esteem and issues around intimacy and addiction. She also supports those coping with trauma, parenting pressures, career changes and ADHD. Anita holds the NCPS credential and brings eight years of professional experience to her work.

She takes a warm, interactive and practical approach in sessions. Anita listens without judgement and works alongside each person to set clear, achievable goals. Conversations focus on identifying unhelpful patterns and developing ways to manage day-to-day challenges.

Her approach is integrative, drawing on cognitive behavioural ideas alongside attachment-informed thinking and client-centred ways of working. That means sessions often combine noticing thoughts and behaviours with exploring how past relationships shape current feelings. Techniques are chosen to fit what the person needs most in the moment.

Anita aims to make therapy conversational and solution-focused while keeping the bigger picture in view. She prioritises building trust and empowering people to try new ways of coping. Where useful, practical strategies and short exercises are given between sessions to reinforce what was discussed.

People contact Anita for many reasons, from managing panic and depression to navigating commitment and intimacy concerns. She invites prospective clients to reflect on their goals and then work together to find steps that feel doable and relevant.

Therapeutic approaches for online work and what to expect

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and then make room for actions that match their values. It can be helpful for anxiety, stress and life changes by focusing on meaningful goals rather than fighting every uncomfortable feeling. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression and low mood because it gives tools you can practise between sessions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns affect current emotional responses and connections with others, which can be useful for relationship difficulties and intimacy concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods feel most useful. That choice is based on your goals, preferences and what comes up during early sessions, and can be adjusted as therapy progresses.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow more frequent short check-ins when needed. It also makes it possible for international clients to connect with registered or accredited professionals without relocating. Anita will help tailor the practical details to fit everyday routines and therapeutic goals.
