Anita DhanechaBACP

Anita Dhanecha is a counsellor who centres her work on a person-centred approach. She begins sessions with empathy and respect, and aims to create space for people to speak freely about what matters to them. Anita uses a mix of techniques to match each person's needs rather than applying one fixed method.

She draws on Attachment-Based Therapy ideas to look at how early relationships affect current feelings and connections. That can help when someone is struggling with relationship patterns, intimacy, or attachment concerns. Her client-centred foundation keeps the focus on the person's experience and choices.

Anita helps people with a wide range of problems. Common areas she supports include stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. She also works with issues such as addictions, trauma and abuse, body image, and pregnancy and childbirth concerns.

With five years of practice, she brings practical listening and gentle challenge to sessions. Anita aims to help people notice patterns, build self-understanding, and develop ways to manage everyday pressures. Her approach is collaborative and paced to the individual's needs.

People meet Anita in a calm, non-judging space where the emphasis is on exploring what the client wants to change. She encourages small steps and realistic goals, and thanks people for the trust involved in coming to counselling.

How attachment and person-centred work translate online

Attachment-based ideas look at how early bonds shape current relationships and emotional reactions. Online sessions using this lens help people spot patterns in their close relationships and practise new ways of relating in day-to-day life.

Client-centred therapy emphasises listening, acceptance and following the client's lead. In an online setting this often means sessions focus on what the person most wants to address, with the counsellor reflecting and asking questions to deepen understanding.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to decide which methods fit best based on goals and preferences. That collaborative choice can change over time as priorities shift.

Practical benefits of online counselling include fitting sessions into a busy routine and removing travel time. It can also make regular check-ins easier to keep when work or caregiving makes scheduling hard. Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered and can pick what suits your life best.
