About Yana

Yana Kambites is a counsellor who draws on Transactional Analysis to help people understand how they respond to others. She uses this approach to make everyday choices clearer and to support people who want change. Yana explains patterns simply so clients can try different responses in the moment.

Yana has four years' experience supporting people with stress and anxiety. She also helps with relationship problems, anger, low self-esteem and depression.

Background and approach

Her work includes helping people manage grief, intimacy concerns, sleep problems and parenting strain. Her practice pays attention to trauma and abuse alongside issues such as ADHD, career stress and life transitions. Yana also works with concerns like abandonment, attachment issues and codependency.

She addresses practical problems such as money worries and fertility-related distress when these come up. Sessions are relaxed and non-judgemental. Yana aims to create a friendly space where people can say what they think and feel.

Conversations focus on what clients want to change and on small steps to try between sessions. Yana speaks English and Bulgarian and is based in the United Kingdom. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, which is noted here as a professional credential.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions that fit their routine.

How Transactional Analysis and online sessions work together

Transactional Analysis looks at the roles people adopt and how they communicate. It helps identify repeated patterns in how someone talks and reacts, and shows simple alternatives to try in daily life. This can be useful for relationship problems, anger and low self-esteem. Yana also focuses on trauma-informed care by recognising the effects of past hurt on present behaviour. That means noticing when reactions link back to earlier experiences and gently working on safer responses over time. Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and then decide together what techniques to try. This collaborative way helps make sure sessions match what the person actually needs. Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues for deeper conversation. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a lunch break or commute. Live chat and text messaging work well for quick check-ins, brief reflection or when typing feels easier than talking. Many people find that having several formats makes it easier to keep therapy going through life changes. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt methods across these formats so the work continues even when schedules shift.
