About Ana
Ana Andreea Haynes is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem difficulties, and parenting strains. Sessions are conducted in English and Romanian and she accepts international clients.
Ana focuses on helping people make sense of difficult experiences. She listens without judgement and supports people who have experienced physical, sexual or emotional abuse. She has experience working with substance misuse and with women affected by human trafficking and modern slavery.
Alongside trauma work, Ana helps with relationship and family problems, grief, anger, eating concerns and issues linked to identity and intimacy. She also offers support around career changes, coping with life transitions, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Practical matters such as communication problems, codependency and separation are part of her practice.
Her practice draws on attachment-based ideas and client-centred ways of working. Emotionally-Focused Therapy and mindfulness are part of how she helps people recognise feelings and respond to them differently. Solution-focused tools are used when people want straightforward steps to try between sessions.
Ana often uses creative or experiential methods when words feel insufficient. Sessions aim to help a person notice patterns, try small changes, and practise new ways of relating. To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then book a first appointment using the online options provided.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Ana draws on attachment-based ideas and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people understand relationship patterns and the emotions that drive them. Attachment-based work focuses on how early bonds shape current relationships and can help with issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties and fatherhood concerns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy pays attention to feelings in the moment and can be useful for improving how people express needs and respond to one another.She also uses client-centred and solution-focused techniques. Client-centred work prioritises the person's experience and pace, while solution-focused tools offer short, practical steps to try between sessions. Together these approaches mean Ana will work with each person to find which methods suit their goals and preferences rather than imposing one path.
Confirm the session formats available before booking, as the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around daily life, for example by avoiding travel, allowing shorter check-ins during a work break, or using audio rather than video when bandwidth is limited. The focus in online work is on making therapeutic progress that fits a person's routine and circumstances, decided collaboratively with the therapist.
