About

Ania Foster Vander Elst is a registered and accredited Cognitive Behavioural Therapist (CBT) with training in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
Ania specialises in supporting individuals who are facing a range of challenges, including depression, burnout, feelings of being ‘stuck’, trauma, anxiety (health, social, and generalised), panic, OCD, and phobias. She also works with those navigating life transitions or seeking personal growth and a deeper sense of self-understanding. Ania tailors her approach to each individual, collaborating with clients to help them build resilience, find clarity, and enhance their well-being.
Her approach is warm, compassionate, and non-judgmental. Ania is committed to creating a close, authentic client-therapist relationship that fosters trust, making clients feel truly heard and understood. By building a safe space, Ania helps clients explore their thoughts, feelings, and challenges with openness and curiosity. Together, they develop effective strategies to move forward. Ania’s goal is to empower her clients to become their own therapists, enabling them to live fulfilling lives aligned with their values.
In addition to her core therapies, CBT and ACT, Ania integrates Schema Focused Therapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS) techniques when needed. She holds an MSc in Psychology from the University of St Andrews and a Postgraduate Diploma in CBT from the University of Southampton. Ania is a member of the British Psychological Society and accredited by the British Association of Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapists. To maintain the highest standards of care, she regularly participates in supervision and ongoing clinical training.
Outside the therapy room, Ania embraces life’s many experiences and enjoys exploring new natural places. Being in nature reminds her of the importance of balance, connection, and the simple joys of life. These practices help her stay grounded and present, both in her personal life and in her therapy work, where she brings her full attention and empathy to every session.

“Evidence-based care tailored to each patient — taking the time to explain options and shared decisions.”
