About Ana-Maria
Ana-Maria Anica is a psychotherapist who draws on a mix of approaches to help people through difficult times. She holds registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and has three years of practice in the United Kingdom. Ana-Maria speaks English and Romanian and accepts international clients.
She aims to make therapy feel straightforward and welcoming. Sessions focus on the specific problems people bring, whether anxiety, low mood, relationship strain, or major life changes.
Background and approach
Conversations are paced to suit each person so clients can feel comfortable speaking honestly. Her work blends practical coping strategies with reflective conversation. She might use mindfulness exercises to settle strong feelings, or talking methods that help people notice repeating patterns.
The goal is to break large issues into manageable steps and build tools that fit everyday life. People often come because they feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure which direction to take. Ana-Maria supports exploration of how past experiences shape present choices and offers ways to try new behaviours.
She also assists with issues such as grief, addiction, parenting stress, and body image concerns. Therapy can range from short-term problem solving to longer work on deeper patterns. New clients start by sharing what they want to change and setting small, achievable goals.
Sessions are offered online by video, phone, live chat, or text, allowing flexibility in how people connect.

Online support
She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach helps people understand trust, closeness and repeated relationship habits.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. Ana-Maria will discuss goals and preferences and try methods that feel practical and helpful. Clients and therapist work together to adjust the style and pace as needed.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging to make therapy easier to fit into life. Video lets people use body language and tone, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat offers a shorter check-in style, and text messaging suits ongoing support between sessions. These options give flexibility for different days and needs while keeping the focus on progress and practical change.
