About Anita
Anita Roy is a counsellor who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports those facing addiction, grief, intimacy issues, eating concerns, parenting strain, career change, bipolar challenges, ADHD and compassion fatigue. Anita uses a warm, respectful manner and aims to make people feel heard and understood from the first session.
She brings eight years of clinical experience and is listed with NCPS.
Background and approach
Her sessions focus on practical steps and clear goals. Anita believes in working together with each person to find what actually helps in day-to-day life rather than relying on labels. Her style is interactive and integrative.
She mixes approaches such as cognitive behavioural techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-based thinking and client-centred methods according to what each person needs. Conversations are shaped to suit individual concerns and pace. In practice Anita helps people spot unhelpful patterns, try small changes, and build coping skills.
Sessions include setting realistic goals and testing new ways of handling difficult feelings or situations. She pays attention to relationships, past experiences and practical supports that affect wellbeing. If someone is thinking about starting, she asks for their input and works collaboratively on a plan.
The emphasis is on gentle challenge, steady progress and learning tools that can be used outside the room.

How Anita works online
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Anita will discuss options and together decide what feels most useful based on the person's needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative choice can change over time as the work proceeds.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Many people find that talking from a comfortable daily setting helps them use new skills between sessions and bring real-life examples to the conversation.
