Meet Anna
I believe therapy works best when you feel seen, heard and truly understood. I bring a warm, honest and inclusive approach to the work I do, shaped by over a decade of experience supporting both adults and young people with a wide range of mental health challenges.
My background includes working across the NHS, charity services and private practice, and I’m passionate about creating a space where all parts of your identity are respected and welcomed — including your culture, faith, sexuality, neurodivergence and lived experience.
Grounded in knowledge. Guided by compassion.
Training and Qualifications
I hold an MSc in Psychology and a Postgraduate Diploma in Cognitive and Behavioural Psychotherapies, with additional training across a wide range of therapeutic models including psychodynamic, humanistic, systemic, schema and somatic therapy.
Over the years, I’ve completed specialist training in areas such as:
- Complex trauma and PTSD
- Neurodivergence in health, education and social care
- Therapy for long-term conditions
- Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
- Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT)
- Clinical risk and safeguarding
- Motivational interviewing (MI)
- Group-based therapies including STEPPS and schema work
I’m an accredited member of the BABCP and work to professional standards recognised by the Professional Standards Authority.
My work is rooted in up-to-date psychological knowledge and ongoing reflective practice, and I tailor everything I do to meet the needs of each person I work with.
My philosophy
Individuality
I respect and value the uniqueness of each person, and shape therapy around your specific needs, goals and life experiences.
Inclusivity
I honour every part of your identity, including your culture, faith, neurodivergence, sexuality and background. This is a space where you can feel truly seen.
Collaboration
Therapy is a shared process. I work alongside you with openness and honesty, supporting your journey without judgment or pressure.
Compassion
You will always be met with patience, warmth and care. Whatever you are carrying, there is space for it here.
Integrity
I work with transparency, accountability and ethical practice at the centre of everything I do.
Flexibility
No two journeys are the same. I draw from a range of approaches and adapt to what feels right for you, at your pace.
Let’s take the next step together
If you feel ready to begin, I’m here to support you.
Together, we can explore what you’re going through, help you understand yourself more fully, and find new ways forward that feel right for your life. Get in touch when you’re ready — I’d be glad to hear from you.
