Background and approach
Anita aims to build a trusting relationship where people feel listened to and respected. Her approach draws on several evidence-informed methods and is tailored to the situation. Sessions typically include goal setting, identifying unhelpful patterns, and learning skills for managing difficult thoughts and emotions.
She emphasises real-world strategies people can use between meetings. Anita holds NCPS and brings eight years of experience in clinical practice in the United Kingdom. Her background includes work with people affected by domestic and emotional abuse and those facing complex trauma or mood disorders.
She works with clients in English and accepts international clients. People can expect collaborative sessions where the therapist and client decide priorities together. Anita aims to help people recognise strengths, make gradual changes and develop more flexible ways of coping with life’s challenges.
Therapeutic approaches suited to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on values-based action and can help with anxiety, depression and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and teaches skills to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, low mood and stress.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then try approaches that match those aims. This is a collaborative process and plans can be revised as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video lets people use face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging work well for brief check-ins, ongoing notes between sessions or when shorter, more flexible contact is useful. These options make it easier to access therapy from different locations and to fit sessions around work or family commitments.
