Welcome to Ivory Aztec Counselling

A space to breathe, heal and grow – in Croydon and online across the UK

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to turn, you’re not alone — and you don’t have to face it on your own. I offer gentle, supportive therapy to help you feel more in control, more understood, and more like yourself again.

Sessions are available in-person in Croydon or online, wherever you are in the UK.

Hi, I’m Ana – Let’s Take This Step Together

I’m Ana Cox, a qualified Therapeutic Counsellor, Accredited EMDR Therapist, and Clinical Supervisor. With over 10 years’ experience supporting children, teenagers, and adults, I bring warmth, honesty, and flexibility to each session. My approach is down-to-earth and always tailored to you.

How I Can Help

  • Counselling & Psychotherapy: A safe, confidential space to explore anxiety, low mood, stress, or life changes.
  • EMDR Therapy: To help process trauma, PTSD, or distressing memories.
  • Neurodiversity-Affirming Support: Specialised therapy for clients with Autism, ADHD, Dyslexia, and related experiences.
  • Life Coaching & Mentoring: Support for when you’re feeling stuck or ready to move forward.
  • Clinical Supervision: Reflective, ethical supervision for fellow counsellors and caring professionals.

Therapy That Works Around You

You can choose to meet face-to-face in Croydon or connect online from the comfort of your own space. I aim to offer flexibility that works with your lifestyle — no pressure, no judgment, just support tailored to you.

A Calmer, Clearer You Starts Here
