Anita Roy, NCPS

Anita Roy is a counsellor who supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. She works with those coping with trauma and abuse, addictions, low self-esteem and issues around intimacy. Anita also helps with career strain, parenting concerns, grief and life changes. Anita holds NCPS as a listed credential and practises in the United Kingdom.

She uses a warm, interactive style and adapts sessions to each person’s needs. Anita describes her approach as integrative, drawing on methods that help people change unhelpful thinking and develop new coping skills. Sessions focus on clear goals, practical strategies and building things that feel useful in everyday life.

Anita aims to create a non-judgemental atmosphere where people can talk openly. She listens closely and works collaboratively to identify the patterns that cause distress. Together with each person she builds a plan that fits their pace and priorities.

Her work emphasises learning skills to manage difficult emotions and strengthening relationships with self and others. Anita also pays attention to attachment issues and the impact of past trauma on current behaviour. She supports people who identify as LGBT and those dealing with a range of personality and neurodiversity-related concerns.

With eight years of experience, Anita applies a mix of approaches including cognitive behavioural, acceptance-based and attachment-focused work. She welcomes people from the UK and internationally and uses a matching and scheduling process to begin therapy.

How Anita’s approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and choosing actions that match personal values. It can help with anxiety, low mood and problems that feel stuck. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people develop different ways of relating and feeling secure. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, identifies difficult thought patterns and builds practical skills to change them and reduce distress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Anita will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and help decide which methods to try. Therapy is collaborative - she aims to adapt the approach as needs and outcomes become clearer.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family life, reduce travel time and allow a quicker check-in when days are busy. It can also suit people who prefer working with a therapist from another area or country. Registered or accredited professionals commonly use online work to focus on skills practice, emotion regulation and making step-by-step changes that carry into everyday life.
