About Ana
Ana Andreea Haynes is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years' experience. She works with a wide range of issues including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self‑esteem and relationship concerns. Her practice also covers career and life changes, addiction, grief and issues related to identity and intimacy.
Haynes draws on approaches that centre on attachment and on the client's own experience. She uses client‑centred and emotionally focused methods that encourage people to talk through feelings and patterns that repeat in relationships. Mindfulness and solution‑focused techniques are also woven into sessions to help with practical coping and day‑to‑day challenges.
She has particular experience supporting women who have survived physical, sexual and emotional abuse, and people who have experienced trafficking and modern slavery. She has also worked with individuals dealing with substance misuse and with complex grief after loss.
In sessions she pays attention to how past connections shape present responses. That can mean noticing patterns from childhood, exploring fears of abandonment, or working with attachment or dissociation when these come up. The focus is on practical steps and on making sense of what has happened, not on labels.
Sessions are carried out in English and Romanian and she accepts clients internationally. Ana aims to help people facing the pressures of early adulthood as well as those navigating harder life changes later on. To start, readers are advised to use the platform's matching process to arrange an initial session and discuss the best way to work together.
How her approaches translate to online work
Ana uses attachment‑based ideas to look at how early relationships influence current difficulties; this helps when someone is dealing with fear of abandonment, communication problems or repeating patterns in relationships. Client‑centred practice means she focuses on the person's experience and reflects what they bring, which can make it easier to talk through feelings and build understanding. Emotionally focused work targets the emotions under relationship struggles and can be useful for people wanting clearer ways to name and respond to core feelings.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss different methods and, together with the client, decide which suits current goals and preferences. That collaborative decision can change over time as needs shift.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the options before booking. Online work can make it simpler to fit therapy into study, work or a busy routine, and it can allow shorter check‑ins or sessions that don't need video when that helps with concentration or bandwidth. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises, mindfulness practices and solution‑focused tasks to fit an online meeting, helping therapy feel practical and usable in everyday life.
