Ana Andreea Haynes, BACP

Ana Andreea Haynes offers a warm, client-centred way of working that starts with careful listening and compassion. She explains things plainly and helps people make sense of hard experiences. Ana aims to create a steady, non-judgemental space where people can talk about what matters to them.

Ana has three years of experience and holds BACP accreditation, which means she is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She has focused work supporting women affected by abuse and trauma, including physical and sexual assault, emotional abuse, and exploitation through trafficking. She has also worked with people dealing with substance use and its consequences.

She helps with a wide range of difficulties, such as anxiety, depression, anger and grief. Ana also supports people with self-esteem problems stemming from bullying or difficult childhood experiences. Other concerns she addresses include relationship and intimacy issues, parenting stress, career strain, addictions, ADHD and compassion fatigue.

Ana draws on approaches such as attachment-based work, emotionally-focused methods, client-centred practice, mindfulness and solution-focused techniques. She adapts these to each person’s needs and may include creative ways of expressing things when words are not enough.

Sessions are offered in English and Romanian and Ana accepts international clients. To begin, people use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and then schedule according to therapist availability.

How Ana's approach translates to online therapy

Ana uses attachment-based ideas, client-centred work and emotionally-focused therapy to guide online sessions. Attachment-based work looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people understand how early bonds affect current feelings and reactions. Client-centred work focuses on listening, empathy and helping a person lead the pace of change. Emotionally-focused approaches help people identify, name and work with strong feelings to shift patterns that keep them stuck.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Ana will talk with each person about their goals, preferences and practical needs, and will tailor methods together with them. The choice of techniques and pace is collaborative and reviewed as therapy progresses.

The original biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow sessions from a quieter place that suits the client. It can also allow shorter check-ins when a full session is not needed, and makes it simpler to keep therapy going for people who live far from a practitioner.
