About Yana

Yana Kambites is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years of practice. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, anger, low self-esteem, depression, grief and intimacy-related problems. She also supports those dealing with parenting pressures, career shifts, sleeping problems and ADHD-related concerns. Sessions are available in English and Bulgarian.

Yana trained in Transactional Analysis, a method that looks at how people communicate and the roles they take in relationships. She uses that framework to help people notice unhelpful patterns and choose different responses in the moment. This approach makes everyday interactions easier to understand and gives practical steps for change.

In sessions she listens to what matters to the client and maps out simple, clear options. Conversations focus on what is happening now and what the client wants to change. Yana works steadily through issues such as abandonment, attachment patterns, codependency and family of origin topics, helping clients see how past dynamics show up today.

She also addresses feelings like guilt, shame, emptiness, jealousy and impulsivity. Practical topics such as money worries, fertility concerns and career decisions are discussed in straightforward terms. Yana encourages people to try small adjustments and notice what changes in their daily life.

People are invited to complete a short matching questionnaire before their first session and then schedule an appointment. The cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches are used online

Transactional Analysis is a focus in Yana's work. It examines how people speak and the roles they play in relationships. Online sessions can use this method to map communication patterns and try different responses during discussions. This helps with issues like codependency, people-pleasing and recurring conflict.

Alongside Transactional Analysis, she uses practical, evidence-based techniques to address emotions and behaviour. That includes working on awareness of triggers, practising alternative responses and setting clear personal goals. These techniques are useful for anxiety, anger, low self-esteem and sleep problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods fit best with the client's goals and preferences. They will review progress and adjust the plan together as needed.

The biography does not specify session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into daily life, for example by removing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a busy day. Registered or accredited professionals often find remote sessions help people maintain continuity of care while managing work, family and other commitments.
