About me
Hello, I’m Anna. I know it can be daunting to seek the support of a counsellor, especially when you’re feeling fragile or vulnerable. But you’ve taken a courageous first step by being here. Let me share how I can support you.
My aim is to create a safe, stable, compassionate, and non-judgmental environment where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Here, you’ll be heard, validated, and accepted. I am here to support you through any difficulties and problems you are facing. My goal is to encourage you to make positive changes in your life and help you find the tools you need to overcome these challenges and see a clearer path forward.
As an integrative counsellor, I adapt my approach to your unique needs, drawing from various therapeutic methods. I believe in the importance of the relationship between us, building trust and rapport to facilitate change. In our sessions, you can share your thoughts and feelings with the assurance that everything will be treated with respect and confidentiality.
Life’s challenges can be overwhelming, but you don’t have to face them alone. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, stress, depression, relationship issues, bereavement, trauma, or just feeling stuck, counselling offers a path to help and change.
Counselling is also a journey of self-discovery, where you can explore your inner world, recognize patterns in your relationships and behaviours, and gain new perspectives. I believe everyone has the potential for growth, even when it feels daunting. Together, we can uncover the strength and resources you need to move forward.
If this sounds like the right fit for you, please reach out for a free initial consultation. Together, we can navigate life’s complexities and work towards a more balanced and meaningful future for you.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP) and I hold the following qualifications:
- Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling, Integrative, CPCAB
- Level 3 Certificate in Counselling Studies, CPCAB
- Level 2 Certificate in Counselling Skills, NCFE CACHE
- Certificate of Proficiency BACP
I also attend regular CPD training and courses.
My approach is integrative, meaning it includes several theoretical approaches which in my view suit best my values and my views on human nature and development.
As I have personal experience of living with addictions, changing countries and professions – not belonging - I approach people from a position of somebody who is also still struggling with life and has compassion to client’s struggles, rather than an expert with a ready-made solution.
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.
