About me
Hello, I’m Anna, an experienced counsellor and owner of Calm Coast Counselling. I’m passionate about supporting children, young people and adults on your emotional well-being journey. I live in Torquay with my two boys and our playful chocolate Labrador, Bonzo. I love wild swimming, often starting my day with a swim followed by a chat with friends. I believe in the healing power of nature and bring this into my therapy practice. I offer face-to-face, online, telephone and walk-and-talk sessions. My integrative approach blends various therapies, including Person-Centred, Psychodynamic, CBT, Gestalt and other creative techniques.
As an integrative, client-led counsellor, I support you at your pace, focusing on what works for you in your style. Whether it's anxiety, stress, relationships, grief, pain or other challenges, we’ll explore different approaches together. My goal is to provide a warm, supportive space where you feel empowered to work through your concerns and find healing.
I know reaching out can feel like a big step, but I’m here to support you every way I can. If you're feeling unsure or overwhelmed, let’s have a free phone chat to talk through what you're going through and how I can help. There’s no pressure, just a friendly conversation to see how we can move forward together. You’re not alone.
