About Ana
Ana Fay offers a person-centred approach that places the client's experience at the heart of sessions. She creates a warm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about what matters most to them. Ana uses clear, straightforward language and focuses on practical steps that feel manageable for busy lives.
Ana draws on three years of clinical experience and holds the NCPS credential. She has worked with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and trauma.
Background and approach
She also supports those coping with long-term health conditions, ADHD and issues around identity and sexuality. Sessions tend to be conversational and focused on the person's goals. Ana helps people build self-awareness, notice unhelpful patterns and try small changes between sessions.
Mindfulness tools and attachment-informed ideas are used where helpful to strengthen emotional regulation and relationships with others. She is comfortable working in English and Spanish and accepts international clients. Practical options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging so people can choose what fits their routine.
People who want to begin are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a time. Ana aims to respond promptly within her working hours and supports people who want steady, goal-focused counselling or more open-ended therapy work.

How Ana uses attachment and mindfulness online
Ana blends person-centred work with attachment-informed ideas and mindfulness practice to help people better manage emotions and relationships. Attachment-informed work looks at patterns in how people connect with others and helps them notice repeating habits that cause upset. Mindfulness practice involves simple attention exercises and breathing techniques that reduce immediate stress and support clearer thinking.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Ana collaborates with each person to decide which methods match their needs, goals and preferences. That way sessions can focus on practical steps the client feels comfortable trying between meetings.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to increase convenience. Video calls let people use visual cues and a more conversational flow. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat or messaging suits people who prefer brief, frequent contact or who find writing easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, childcare or travel schedules.
