About Ana

Ana Fay is a Person-Centred counsellor and psychotherapist who focuses on building a respectful, non-judgemental space. She meets each person where they are and helps them explore their feelings and choices. Sessions aim to help people notice their strengths and find clearer ways forward.

She uses a blend of attachment-based thinking and trauma-informed care alongside mindfulness and existential reflection. That mix helps people who are coping with anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, grief, and major life changes. Ana also supports people managing ADHD, autism and long-term health conditions by paying close attention to how daily life and relationships affect wellbeing.

Ana draws on three years' clinical experience and works in the United Kingdom. Her listed credential is NCPS, which is shown as provided in her profile. She offers therapy in English and Spanish and accepts international clients.

In sessions she focuses on listening, reflecting, and helping people try practical steps between meetings. Conversations can cover boundaries, communication, identity, self-esteem, sleep and eating concerns, and coping strategies for work or caregiving stress. The emphasis is on understanding what matters to the individual and finding manageable ways to move forward.

People who choose Ana can expect a calm, patient style and an approach that values personal agency. To start, readers are invited to use the platform's Start Therapy process to match and schedule according to availability.

Step 3

How Ana's approaches translate to online therapy

Ana draws on Person-Centred principles alongside attachment-based work and trauma-focused ideas. Person-Centred work means the therapist listens closely and follows the person's concerns, helping them find their own answers and build confidence. Attachment-based thinking pays attention to how relationships and early patterns shape current feelings and interaction styles. Trauma-focused approaches help people name and manage distressing memories and reactions, and to build coping tools for daily life.

Finding the right approach is usually a collaborative process. Ana will discuss goals and preferences and suggest which ideas to try first. Together the person and therapist adapt the pace and focus over time, checking what helps and changing course where needed.

Please confirm the session formats offered before booking, as the profile does not list specific delivery methods. Many people find online sessions help them fit therapy into busy lives, reduce travel time, and make it easier to schedule around work, study or caregiving. Online work can also allow shorter check-ins when a full session is difficult, or avoid the need to be on camera if that feels draining. Registered or accredited professionals can use different formats, so check current options when you arrange a first appointment.
