About Anita
Anita Roy is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has eight years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, addictions, self-esteem struggles and other life changes. Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients.
Her work focuses on helping people name and make sense of strong emotions and recurring patterns. She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside other approaches to look at how feelings and attachment shape relationships and behaviour. Anita also draws on cognitive and client-centred methods to support practical change.
In early sessions she helps clients clarify immediate concerns and set short-term goals. Conversations aim to identify patterns that keep problems repeating and to try small changes that reduce distress. Anita uses straightforward talk and reflective listening to make emotional experience clearer.
Over time she combines exploring emotions with strategies from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy when useful. The focus is on what matters most to the client and on actions that fit their values. Anita adapts the pace to each person’s needs.
Practical issues such as work stress, parenting strain, grief, intimacy matters and neurodiversity are included in her caseload. Clients are invited to discuss the options for sessions, the subscription cost model, and the steps to book an initial meeting. The process begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling the first appointment.
How Anita uses EFT, ACT and attachment work online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on identifying and naming feelings that drive relationship patterns. It helps people recognise how emotion shapes reactions and seeks to create new, more helpful responses in relationships and personal situations. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages noticing thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that fit personal values; it is often used for anxiety, stress and life transitions.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early connection styles affect current relationships and trust. This approach can help people understand patterns of avoidance, clinginess or fear of abandonment and how those patterns show up now. Anita will discuss these approaches with each person and work together to decide which feels most useful.
Practical benefits of working online include being able to fit sessions around work or family commitments and using a setup that reduces travel time. Session format options are not specified in the biography, so confirm the available session types before booking. The therapist will help match the approach and session rhythm to the client’s goals and daily life, adjusting methods as progress is observed.
