About Anita

Anita Roy NCPS helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. She also supports those dealing with trauma and abuse, addiction, self‑esteem struggles, parenting concerns and grief. Anita is experienced with a wide range of issues including ADHD, intimacy concerns, eating problems and career worries. She works with clients who identify as LGBT and with people navigating major life changes. Anita uses a warm, interactive style that adapts to each person. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps. Conversations aim to uncover unhelpful patterns and build skills for everyday life. Her approach draws from several therapy methods. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps people challenge thought patterns and try new behaviours. Attachment‑Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current ways of relating. Client‑Centred Therapy emphasises listening, respect and the client's own knowledge about what helps. Anita has eight years of experience and holds the NCPS credential. She says the therapeutic relationship matters most and that the client’s voice guides the work. Expect a respectful, non‑judgemental space where goals are shaped together. If someone is ready to begin, Anita invites them to take a first step and explore what change might look like. She focuses on practical strategies, building resilience and supporting self‑discovery.

How Anita’s approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them, and then take steps that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and trying out different behaviours to shift mood and function; it is often used for depression and anxiety. Attachment‑Based Therapy looks at patterns of relating that come from early relationships and can help with intimacy issues, trust and repeated relationship problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Anita will talk with each person about their needs and goals and suggest which methods to try first. Decisions are made together and can be adjusted as therapy progresses to suit how the client responds.

The biography does not specify which online formats are offered, so confirm the available session options before booking. Online therapy can help fit sessions into a busy life because it can remove travel time, make it easier to schedule shorter check‑ins around work, and let people join from different locations. Registered or accredited professionals can use these approaches effectively online, and Anita aims to adapt techniques so they work well in remote sessions.

Before you get in touch

Therapists listed here offer talking therapy online. A profile is not a diagnosis of you or of anyone in your life, and no therapist can promise how a relationship will turn out.

If you are in danger, or someone is hurting or threatening you, contact emergency services or a domestic-abuse helpline. The numbers are at the foot of this page.
