Ana Andreea Haynes

Ana Andreea Haynes is a counsellor who draws on compassion and careful listening to help people make sense of difficult life events. She offers a steady, non-judgemental presence and aims to walk alongside clients as they work through painful experiences and day-to-day stresses.

She has three years' experience and has supported many people affected by abuse and trauma, including those who have experienced physical and sexual assault, emotional abuse, and trafficking. She has also worked with individuals facing substance misuse and people coping with grief and bereavement.

Ana focuses on practical, person-centred work. She uses attachment-based thinking to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas help when the problem is painful feelings and difficulty connecting with oneself or others.

Mindfulness and solution-focused techniques are used when clients want tools for managing anxiety, anger or day-to-day stress. Sessions may include simple grounding or breathing exercises and short practical steps to try between meetings.

Her background includes supporting people with self-esteem, body image and relationship concerns, as well as issues such as addiction, parenting strain and career stress. People who speak English or Romanian can work with her, and she accepts international clients. Booking begins by completing the Start Therapy questionnaire and scheduling according to availability.

How Ana’s approaches translate into online work

Ana combines attachment-based ideas with emotionally-focused and client-centred ways of working to help people process difficult feelings and relationship patterns. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape reactions today and can help with issues like abandonment, codependency and control. Emotionally-Focused Therapy concentrates on recognising and naming strong emotions so they can be worked with rather than avoided. Client-centred practice means the conversation is guided by each person's pace and priorities, helping them feel heard and understood.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and she treats it as a collaborative decision. Together they will review goals, try different techniques and agree what feels most useful. This helps tailor work for concerns such as anger, trauma, anxiety or relationship difficulties.

The therapist's profile does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a break, or letting someone choose audio rather than video on days when that feels better. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises like mindfulness, emotion-focused tasks and practical coping steps to suit remote sessions, helping people continue progress between meetings.
