About Yana
Yana Kambites is a BACP-registered counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years' experience. She works with adults on common problems such as stress, anxiety, relationship strain, anger and self-esteem. Sessions are conducted in English and Bulgarian. The profile lists a wide range of concerns she helps people with, including depression, grief, trauma and issues around intimacy and parenting.
Her core training was in Transactional Analysis, a practical way of looking at how people talk and react to one another. Yana uses this to highlight habitual roles and patterns that shape responses. This approach is used to help clients make different choices in the moment and try new ways of responding to stressful situations.
In practice she focuses on clear, straightforward work. Conversations look at what happens between people, and how past family patterns can still affect day-to-day reactions. Together clients can identify triggers for anger or anxiety, and practise alternative responses that feel manageable.
Yana aims to keep sessions down-to-earth and non-judgemental. She encourages clients to name small goals and test practical changes between meetings. The emphasis is on gradual shifts rather than instant fixes.
Her background supports people dealing with life changes, career concerns, and specific areas such as attachment wounds, control issues and codependency. For anyone wanting to reduce reactivity and improve communication, she uses simple tools and regular review to track progress.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Transactional Analysis examines how people communicate and the roles they fall into during interactions. Online conversations can map these patterns by reviewing recent exchanges, spotting recurring reactions and experimenting with different responses. This approach can help when anger shows up in relationships or at work and when people want clearer ways to respond.Another practical technique looks at immediate triggers and small behavioural changes. In short, sessions focus on noticing what sparks a strong reaction and rehearsing alternative actions that reduce escalation. This helps with impulse control, guilt and rebuilding calmer routines between meetings.
Choosing the right method is a joint process. The therapist will work with clients to identify what feels useful and adjust the approach over time based on progress and preferences. The emphasis is on collaboration and trying methods that fit everyday life.
Formats for online work are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current session options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into a busy schedule, allow for quieter check-ins, or make it simpler to join from work breaks. The therapist will discuss practical arrangements and pacing during the first meeting to make sessions realistic and manageable.
