About me
Hello, my name is Anna, welcome to my profile.
You might be reaching out to try counselling for the first time or perhaps you've tried before and wasn’t helpful? Your readiness for therapy and finding the best suited therapist for you, who can understand you; but also challenge and nurture you is the base of successful therapy.
First of all, well done for making this first step- reading my profile! I offer a warm, safe, confidential, non-judgemental, understanding and empathetic environment, where we can build a trusting relationship, something so important in therapy.
My aim is to offer a space for you where you can gain more understanding of yourself. I can support you to gain awareness of the patterns that are causing you difficulties in your relationship with yourself and relationships with others. Then you can begin to relate those patterns in a new way. This brings about its own healing, enabling choices about how you would like to move forward in your life.
I'm registered with BACP and work within their Ethical Framework. I attend regular supervision, I'm insured and hold an enhanced, up to date DBS check.
I have supported clients in reducing anxiety, stopping limiting behaviours and becoming empowered, to name a few. My model is relational which means that the relationship between myself and you is the foundation of the work.
I believe that as a small children we observe caregivers and learn how to relate to others. Later in life we unconsciously copy these behaviors which might not serve us well anymore. Or never did.
Finding out what serves you well and starting to make conciseness choices can have significant impact on your life. Or could make a change in your life, if that's what you wish.
I'm an integrative counsellor, which means I was trained to combine several approaches, I draw on different models of therapy depending on client’s needs. I have been volunteer at Connect Counselling Services in Camberley for the past 2 years.
I currently work in private practice and I can offer either short term or long term counselling at The Eaves in Guildford and at Connect in Camberley.
Feel free to contact me for more information or to book initial 10-15 mins chat.

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
