Hi, I am Anni! I work mostly with people who are starting to notice patterns in their relationships or within themselves that don’t feel good anymore. You might keep ending up in similar dynamics, feel stuck in certain ways of relating, or sense that something just isn’t quite right. Many of my clients are navigating relationship difficulties, life transitions, or questions around identity and self-worth. Some are also living between cultures or adjusting to life in a new country. In our work, we slow things down and begin to make sense of what’s underneath—so change feels more meaningful, not just like a quick fix.

My professional experience includes working with clients presenting anxiety, depression, trauma, abuse, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, identity issues, grief, suicidal ideation, and complex loss.
I see you, your story, your survival strategies, your values, and the meaning behind the way you have learned to protect yourself. Before I see your symptoms.
Hello, I’m Chris Espinelli, a Qualified Integrative Counsellor, MBACP, and Level 5 CBT Therapist.
I believe therapy begins with seeing the person before seeing the symptoms, the diagnosis, or the struggle. You are not simply “an anxious person”, “a people-pleaser”, “too sensitive”, “too emotional”, or “difficult”. Very often, the ways we think, feel, respond, protect ourselves, avoid conflict, overgiven, shut down or become overwhelmed.

The ways we think, relate, and cope are often developed for good reason earlier in life; the difficulty is that they don’t always translate well into adulthood. Strategies that once helped now get in the way. We often find ourselves repeating the same patterns that adversely impact our relationships, leaving us feeling disconnected from others and ourselves. Therapy is about making sense of that. Not just insight for its own sake, but awareness that leads to change. I can help you understand yourself and your relationship with the world around you, so you can be better equipped to face life’s challenges and gain emotional resilience

What are the most effective ways to recover from domestic abuse?
Leaving an abusive relationship requires tremendous courage, so survivors in treatment should recognise that they have already completed the most important step. Still, the trauma of physical or emotional abuse can be difficult to process and overcome. Therapy can help survivors process trauma, grief, and difficult emotions, treat relevant mental health symptoms, and create a new framework for boundaries and relationships in the future. For some, support groups can also be an invaluable outlet for healing.
When should an individual seek help for domestic abuse?
Victims of intimate partner violence should seek help immediately. It can take substantial time, planning, energy, and courage to leave an abusive relationship, but starting the process—by seeking therapy, calling the domestic violence hotline, or simply confiding in a loved one—will help them get there. Those who have left abusive relationships but haven’t sought treatment can also greatly benefit from therapy to process and heal from the experience.
What are the consequences of staying in an abusive relationship?
Remaining in an abusive relationship has serious repercussions. In addition to the ongoing threat of physical danger and emotional abuse, research shows that intimate partner violence is associated with a range of mental health disorders including depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, and substance abuse. Therefore it’s important for individuals in an abusive relationship to seek help as soon as possible.
How can you get domestic abuse treatment for someone else?
It can be very complicated to identify and leave an abusive relationship; barriers include the threat of violence, financial instability, and family pressures. Those concerned about a loved one in an abusive relationship should talk to them about the situation, provide them with resources such as the domestic violence hotline, and introduce the idea of seeing a therapist due to their concern for the person’s safety and well-being.
