Anita Dhanecha, BACP

Anita Dhanecha is a counsellor who works from a person-centred approach. She starts by listening carefully and meeting people where they are. Her work is grounded in empathy and respect, and she adapts methods to fit each person's needs.

Her practice focuses on common but distressing problems such as stress, anxiety and depression. She also helps with grief and loss, relationship and intimacy concerns, and difficulties around self-esteem and body image. Traumatic brain injury is listed among her areas of focus when relevant to a person's experience.

Anita blends Attachment-Based ideas with a Client-Centred foundation. That means she pays attention to how early relationships shape current feelings and patterns, while keeping the person's priorities central. Sessions are shaped by what the client wants to work on, not a fixed programme.

She has five years of experience and holds BACP accreditation. Anita aims to help people feel more able to cope with life changes, manage difficult emotions, and make choices that reflect their values. Her style is warm and straightforward, without jargon.

People new to counselling are guided through simple first steps. Anita invites questions and works at a pace the client finds manageable. She emphasises collaboration so that goals and next steps are agreed together.

How Attachment and Person-Centred Approaches Work Online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current feelings and reactions. Online sessions can help people notice patterns in relationships and try different ways of relating in day-to-day life. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's experience and priorities; the counsellor listens, reflects, and follows the client's lead to build understanding and self-direction.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process. Anita will work with each person to decide which ideas and techniques fit their goals and preferences. That choice is collaborative and can change as the work progresses.

The practical benefits of online work can include fitting sessions into a busy day, reducing travel time and making it easier to maintain regular contact. If you are considering remote sessions, confirm the exact formats offered before booking so you know what to expect. Registered or accredited professionals can support steady progress through conversations that focus on feelings, relationships and problem solving.
