About Ana
Ana Ucha is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor with 18 years of experience. She helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, and major life changes. Her work focuses on practical steps people can use to feel steadier day to day.
She frames conversations with respect and compassion. Sessions aim to identify what feels most urgent and then build simple strategies to manage it. That might mean learning ways to calm strong reactions, improving self-talk, or planning small changes that add up.
Background and approach
Ana adapts the plan to each person's situation. She listens for patterns tied to attachment, abandonment, control, or avoidance and helps people notice how those patterns show up now. She also supports people facing divorce, caregiving strain, chronic illness, or transitions related to aging.
Her experience includes working with concerns around codependency, communication problems, body image, commitment struggles, and coping after disasters. She takes a straightforward approach that focuses on usable tools rather than theory alone. Sessions are offered in English and delivered remotely in formats that fit modern life.
People who choose her work with a licensed clinician who aims to make change feel manageable and realistic.

Approaches that guide online care
Many of her sessions use evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on skills and behavior change. One approach focuses on emotion regulation and helps people learn ways to calm intense reactions and manage anger. Another emphasizes coping skills for stress and anxiety, teaching breathing, grounding, and step-by-step plans to break problems into smaller tasks.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist listens to the person’s goals and current struggles and then suggests options to try together. Plans are adjusted over time based on what helps and what feels manageable for the individual.
Online work is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video lets the therapist and client work in real time with visual cues, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or messaging can support quick check-ins, shorter updates, or ongoing encouragement between longer sessions. These options help therapy fit around work, caregiving, and other obligations rather than requiring a long commute.
