Hello, my name is Anna Planedin and my main approach is psychodynamic but I am also trained in person-centered practice. I help people find relief and movement from a place of feeling 'stuck.' I specialize in working with chronic pain, loss, trauma and sex/sexuality. I view therapy as a process of helping you listen to your gut feelings, find safety and containment and feel less alone in overwhelming experiences. It is my hope that through speaking about difficult or taboo feelings with me, you will feel understood and accepted, and that over time you feel more durable in how you respond to difficulty.
I aim to provide an open, accessible and compassionate space. Psychodynamically, I pay attention to unconscious relational processes between us and find links between what feels distressful for you in the present and what occured in the past. My person-centered practice involves following your gut feelings and bringing empathy, acceptance and non-judgment.
I deeply enjoy witnessing my clients' processes as they find greater connection with themselves and others. Counselling is a dynamic relationship and I am grateful for the opportunity to continually learn from my clients. If you think I might be someone you can work with, please get in touch.

Our initial session is a chance to see how we work together and whether we'd like to continue. For ongoing work past this, I invoice for sessions on a monthly basis at the beginning of the month, with three planned unpaid cancellations clients can use every six months.

Having researched shame in sexual experience for my Doctorate in Psychotherapy, a great deal of my work with clients involves exploring dimensions of sex and shame in the unique and multitudinous ways they arise. I'm also currently completing a qualification in emotionally focused couples' therapy.

I work with clients grappling with difficult transitions and identity, and together we process emotional states that often coincide with trauma, chronic pain, loss and relationship difficulties. Most of my clients work with me long term as this tends to be the route towards meaningful change.

In addition to being grounded in a psychodynamic approach, I draw from an emotionally-focused couples' therapy specialisation, mindfulness practice, and embodied approaches including somatic experiencing. I have taken short courses in dance movement and gestalt therapies, and bring this focus on movement and the body into my work.
