About me
My name is Dr Anette Magnus, and I am an HCPC-registered Counselling Psychologist with over a decade of experience supporting people through emotional and psychological difficulties.
While I work with a wide range of presenting issues, my areas of specialty include anxiety and stress, trauma, relationship and family issues, relationship endings (including breakups and divorce), affairs and betrayals.
What I can help with
- Feeling anxious, stressed or overwhelmed
- Navigating relationship difficulties, including relationship doubts and anxiety
- Relationship endings, including breakups and divorce
- Affairs and betrayals
- Trauma and difficult life experiences that continue to impact you
- Family issues, including managing difficult relationships with parents or siblings
- Breaking unhelpful patterns of people-pleasing and difficulty setting boundaries
- Low self-esteem and self-confidence
How I work
When it comes to therapy, my approach is that there is no “one size fits all”. Clients have different needs at different times, and I therefore see therapy as a collaborative process between therapist and client.
As an integrative practitioner, I draw on different therapeutic approaches to tailor therapy to each client's individual needs, aims and preferences. My professional training includes person-centred therapy, psychodynamic therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT).
In addition to my doctoral training, I have completed professional training in Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy. EMDR can be particularly helpful in processing traumatic or distressing experiences that continue to have an impact in the present.
Next steps
I know that starting therapy can feel like a lot to navigate, and I aim to make the process as straightforward as possible. I offer a free 15-minute initial consultation via video call, giving you an opportunity to ask any questions you may have, briefly discuss what brings you to therapy and get a sense of whether we might be a good fit.
