Ana Andreea Haynes, BACP

Ana Andreea Haynes uses a client-centred, compassionate style that puts the person first. She introduces calm, straightforward listening and helps people untangle painful experiences. Ana is described by clients as approachable and steady in sessions. She holds a BACP credential, which is recorded here as BACP.

Ana draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. She also uses emotionally-focused techniques to help people name and process strong feelings. Mindfulness and solution-focused tools are used to build practical coping skills for day-to-day life.

Her work includes supporting people who have lived through trauma, abuse and exploitation. She also helps with anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, addiction and grief. Ana pays attention to how past experiences affect present relationships and self-image, including issues such as abandonment, codependency and body image.

Sessions are practical and paced to the person. Sometimes the focus is on emotion and connection, and other times on small, achievable steps to change. Ana offers creative options when words are hard to find and values what each person brings to the room.

She is based in the United Kingdom and speaks English and Romanian. Her three years of practice inform a steady, empathetic approach that aims to make therapy feel manageable and useful.

Online approaches that focus on feelings and everyday change

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds influence current relationships and coping patterns. It helps people who notice repeated problems in close connections to understand their reactions and try more helpful ways of relating. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on recognising and working with strong feelings in the moment to improve emotional regulation and depth of connection with others. Solution-Focused Therapy narrows in on practical steps and short-term goals to create immediate change and build momentum.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and will adapt methods together so sessions feel like a good match. This is a collaborative process that can shift over time as priorities change.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation; phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit brief support, journalling between sessions or people who prefer writing. These options help fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping the focus on progress and practical support.
