In my practice I have been specialising in anxiety and dread. These symptoms can manifest in many ways and, we will experience them in our unique way. Perhaps you are dealing with relational difficulties, sense of inadequacy, or feeling not good enough. Working from home and managing your personal life alongside might be challenging and at times almost unbearable. Internal and external conflicts, personal crisis can also be an opportunity for growth and change if addressed in an empathic way by a non-judgemental other. I will help you transform your symptoms into a meaningful experience and help you alter the self-narrative.

Sometimes you just need to find space to clear your head and find your own solution, with someone listening, prompting, clarifying and challenging your assumptions on the way.

It is my belief that connection, compassion and focus on your needs hold the key to your healing and growth.

This will enable you to explore the sometimes painful feelings, past experiences and stuck patterns of behaviour that may be holding you back.

Whatever may be troubling you, I can help. Our lives are impacted by our history, culture, social circumstances, friendships and a whole host of other factors. These aspects condition us to respond and interact with people and situations in our lives in very particular ways.

Hello, I’m Anna, a Clinical Psychologist and CBT therapist with experience working across a range of mental health difficulties in both the NHS and private sector.

You may have experienced something quite difficult or perhaps you are suffering from anxiety or low mood, relationships might not be going so well, or you feel stressed and overwhelmed. In therapy we can explore how these issues are showing up and discover what you need to move forward. We can work together to make sense of your situation and feelings. I will listen exquisitely, gently challenge your beliefs and encourage fresh perspectives. Through small shifts you may find an alternative way. This approach builds on the momentum that brought you to therapy in the first place.

Life and relationships are not easy to navigate, and if you’re experiencing anxiety and depression, or going through difficult times, things can feel overwhelming. I understand how difficulties cause you to lose your sense of control, your overall wellbeing and even your sense of who you are. These are normal experiences, but if you’re struggling to feel a basic sense of joy about being you, or if your relationships are causing you more pain than pleasure, then it might be time to seek help. It can be difficult to imagine how talking therapy can help, but together we can work towards symptomatic relief and the freedom to be youself.

I work with clients to help them achieve their goals, working collaboratively with them to overcome, manage or move on from difficulties in their lives. I believe in supporting clients to realise and develop their skills in managing difficulties and living the life they are seeking.

Deeply rooted in their own potential. I am a Gestalt therapist, certified in ACT-CBT and a member of the UK Council of Psychotherapy. I am also working towards an advanced degree in Gestalt Psychotherapy. My work is also influenced by my passion for symbolism and Jungian analysis.
