About Ana-Maria
Ana-Maria Anica is a BACP counsellor who helps people untangle worry, low mood and relationship strain. She practises an integrative style that combines person-centred listening with mindfulness and goal-focused ways of working. Her manner is warm and non-judgemental, and she aims to make the first steps into therapy feel straightforward and manageable.
She has three years of clinical experience and draws on several approaches to match what each person needs.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on breaking problems into small, doable steps. Practical strategies and clearer perspectives are offered alongside space to reflect on patterns that keep causing pain. Ana-Maria commonly supports people dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma and grief, and with challenges around self-esteem, stress and addiction.
She also works with issues linked to relationships, intimacy, parenting and career change. Her additional interests include attachment concerns, adoption and foster-care matters, body image, and caregiver strain. Therapy sessions balance listening with tools.
Clients can expect gentle exploration of difficult experiences alongside exercises in mindfulness and values-based action. Motivational interviewing techniques are used when people want to change habits or tackle addictions. Sessions are offered in English and Romanian and Ana-Maria accepts international clients.

How Ana-Maria works online
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss goals, preferences and what has helped or not helped before. That way the plan can be adjusted over time to suit how someone responds to therapy.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available online options before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into busy lives by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins around work breaks, or making it easier to meet from different locations. Online work can also let a therapist use guided mindfulness exercises and values-based planning in ways that fit daily routines.
