Anita Roy helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship struggles. She supports those dealing with trauma and abuse, grief, addiction, eating concerns and intimacy-related issues. Anita also works with people managing ADHD, bipolar symptoms, career pressures and compassion fatigue.

She uses a practical, warm approach and has the NCPS credential. Anita draws on several talking therapies to match what each person needs. Sessions focus on clear goals and short-term strategies alongside deeper work on beliefs and attachment patterns.

Background and approach

Conversations are collaborative - the client’s voice shapes the plan. Her style is direct but compassionate. She aims to create an unjudgemental space where people can say difficult things and test new ways of coping.

Practical tools are offered alongside time to understand painful history. Anita has eight years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom and holds the NCPS qualification. She has helped people affected by abandonment issues, body image concerns, blended family stress, dissociation and a wide range of personality and mood challenges.

Typical sessions involve setting clear goals, learning skills to manage emotions, and reviewing progress together. She also supports people with parenting stress, career decisions and life transitions. Work can include short-term coaching or deeper therapeutic exploration depending on need.

People can expect straightforward language and practical suggestions they can try between sessions. Anita emphasises building trust and resilience so people feel steadier after each step forward.

Therapy approaches that work well online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without being ruled by them and focus on values-driven action. It is useful for anxiety, stress and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour to reduce symptoms and build practical skills for mood and anxiety problems. Attachment-Based Therapy examines early relationship patterns and how they affect current connections and emotional reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they will decide whether to focus on skills training, exploring past patterns, or a mix of methods that fit the person’s needs.

Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging can suit people who prefer to write, want flexible check-ins, or like having notes to reflect on between sessions. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt the approach to work effectively through these formats.
