About me
Hi, my name is Annie. I am a counsellor who is friendly, caring, empathetic and I want to help people improve their lives and make life easier.
I have experience supporting clients through many issues including anxiety, depression, bereavement and loss, trauma, domestic abuse, family issues, sexual assault, life changes, diagnosis (ADHD, autism, other learning disabilities), relationship difficulties, low mood and low self-esteem.
How I work
I work from the foundations of the Person-Centred Approach, meaning our sessions are focused entirely on you- your feelings, your experiences, and what you want from therapy. You lead the way, and I am here to listen, understand, and support you as you make sense of what’s going on in your life. Sessions are designed to be gentle, supportive, challenging and free from judgement, always with your goals in mind.
Free 15-minute consultation
To help you decide if I’m the right therapist for you, I offer a free, no-pressure 15-minute phone consultation. It is a chance to talk about what has brought you here and ask any questions you may have.
Warmly,
Annie Neill

Training, qualifications & experience
I hold a Masters degree in Counselling and Psychotherapy from the University of Salford. Alongside this, I have completed a range of CPD courses to deepen my understanding of counselling, mental health, and different therapeutic approaches.
Before qualifying, I completed a BSc in Psychology at Edge Hill University, graduating with a 2:1.
I have worked with many clients who have come to counselling for a wide range of reasons. This includes:
Depression
Anxiety
Diagnoses
Relationship difficulties
Domestic abuse
Sexual assault
Trauma
Bereavement/loss
Low self-esteem
Whatever you are going through, I offer a safe and supportive environment where your experiences are heard, understood, and explored at your own pace.
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.
