About Ana-Maria

Ana-Maria Anica is an integrative psychotherapist who supports people navigating anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, stress, and major life transitions. She frames therapy as a collaborative process and adapts her methods to the needs of each person, drawing on person-centered principles and mindfulness to build a practical, tailored approach.

Clients often come feeling overwhelmed, stuck in unhelpful patterns, or uncertain about their next steps. Ana-Maria works with them to break concerns into manageable parts, explore fresh perspectives, and develop concrete tools that promote greater confidence and a stronger sense of control. Her aim is to combine immediate coping strategies with opportunities to address deeper, longer-term patterns when that feels appropriate.

Ana-Maria holds BACP, which indicates membership with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She seeks to offer a warm, non-judgmental environment where people can move at a pace that suits them, whether they want short-term support for a specific issue or more open-ended personal work. She is motivated to help individuals address stress, relationship struggles, and self-understanding with compassion and practical guidance.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, often called ACT, helps people clarify their values and take meaningful action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. It supports work on issues like anxiety, depression, and life transitions by combining acceptance strategies with committed behavior change. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a non-directive, empathetic stance where the therapist listens deeply and helps clients find their own solutions; this approach is helpful for building self-esteem, improving relationships, and exploring personal identity. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and gentle attention to thoughts and sensations, offering practical techniques to reduce stress, manage emotional reactivity, and ground oneself during challenging moments.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Ana-Maria collaborates with clients to determine which methods feel most useful based on their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the mix of techniques as the work unfolds. This collaborative process aims to fit therapy to the person rather than forcing the person to fit a single model.

Online therapy using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging brings flexibility and accessibility to the work. These options allow clients to connect from different locations, fit sessions into busy schedules, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable, while still working with licensed professionals and qualified therapists to make steady progress.
