Are you feeling overwhelmed or disconnected from yourself and others? Perhaps you’re battling anxiety, low mood, self-criticism, coping with the effects of trauma, loss, or illness. Perhaps some of your behaviours are now starting to worry you. I’m Anna an integrative counsellor and a mum. I understand the juggle of emotions, responsibilities, and self-care, which informs a gentle, relatable approach. In our work together, I offer a safe space where we can explore patterns in your thoughts, emotions and relationships. I’m curious about what has shaped you and how past experiences may still be influencing the present.
I am a qualified counsellor with a special focus on working with , anxiety, low self-esteem and trauma-related difficulties. My work is ADHD-informed and neurodiversity-affirming, with an emphasis on emotional regulation, shame reduction, and adapting therapy to suit individual needs.
Having navigated my own experiences of loss, and trauma, I deeply understand what it means to struggle and find hope again. These experiences strengthen my empathy and commitment to a trauma-informed approach, creating a safe space where we can explore ways to reconnect with the person you were always meant to be.
