About Ana
Ana Andreea Haynes works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem and relationship issues using a person-centred approach. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years' experience in counselling practice.
Ana draws on client-centred and attachment-based ideas to help people make sense of painful experiences. She listens without judgement and helps people notice patterns in their relationships and feelings. Sessions include talking, reflecting and practical steps that a person can try between meetings.
She has a particular background supporting women who have experienced abuse, including physical and sexual assault and emotional abuse. Her work has also included supporting people affected by substance misuse and those who have experienced trafficking and modern slavery.
Ana also addresses a wide range of concerns such as grief, anger, eating and intimacy-related issues. She helps people work through parenting and fatherhood issues, problems with communication, and the fallout from separation or divorce.
Her practice uses elements from emotionally-focused work and solution-focused methods to help people clarify goals and try small changes. Mindfulness techniques are offered when helpful to manage stress and strong emotions. She works in English and Romanian and accepts international clients, using a subscription model for sessions that can be cancelled at any time.
How Ana uses attachment and solution-focused work online
Ana commonly draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current connections and emotional responses. This approach helps people who notice repeated relationship patterns or difficulties trusting others.
She also uses client-centred methods where the counsellor follows the person's lead, and solution-focused techniques that help set small, achievable goals and practical steps. Emotionally-focused elements are used to name and sit with strong feelings while mindfulness offers ways to calm intense states.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss aims, preferences and what feels most useful, and then adapt methods as therapy progresses in a collaborative way.
Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions around work or family life and reducing travel time. Please confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Registered or accredited professionals on the service can explain options and help arrange a convenient time and format.
