Reviewed July 2026

After a very apprehensive plunge into a new world, learning how important the benefits of addressing mental health, and acknowledging professional support may very well be the best chance I have to feel prouder and happier in life, as well as the life of loved ones. Anna, from minute one, showed grace, appreciation, respect, and true care. Vindicating my reasons for being here, and giving me a new sense of hope and excitement going forth. Anna was both engaging, and showed a tremendous level of empathy whilst demonstrating a humble insight into her professional ability to help. I am very excited for our next session, feeling beyond fortunate that this platform connected us.

More about Anna

  • 5 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

I am a qualified Counsellor based in the UK, with experience supporting people affected by addiction, trauma, abuse, anxiety, low self-esteem, and relationship difficulties.

I have a particular interest in working with survivors of religious trauma, high-control groups, coercive environments, and cult-like systems. Leaving a controlling belief system can be deeply confusing and painful. Many people find themselves questioning their identity, struggling with guilt, shame, fear, loss of community, or difficulties trusting themselves and others. You do not have to navigate that journey alone.

Alongside my professional training, I bring personal insight into the challenges of breaking free from unhealthy systems and rebuilding a life based on your own values and choices. Whether you are questioning your beliefs, recovering from indoctrination, healing from spiritual abuse, or learning who you are outside of a controlling environment, therapy can offer a safe space to explore your experiences without judgment.

I also work extensively with addiction and recovery, understanding that substances and other coping behaviours often develop as ways of surviving overwhelming emotions, trauma, loneliness, or pain. Together, we can explore not only the behaviour itself but also the deeper needs and experiences underneath it.

I believe you are the expert on your own life. My role is not to tell you who to be, but to walk alongside you with compassion, curiosity, and respect as you reconnect with your strengths, your voice, and your sense of self.

Reaching out for support takes courage. If you're considering therapy, I would be honoured to accompany you on that journey.

About online counseling

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

I approached therapy with big questions about whether it would be something that would work for me. I doubted about connecting with a therapist and getting proper help. Anna gained my trust through her flexibility, insightful questions, and clear approach adapted to my personality and challenge. I am growing with her support and happy that we met.

Reviewed January 2025

My therapist is amazing, she listens actively, picks up on verbal and also nonverbal cues and explores then with me. She will let you talk when you need to and offers support when you can’t. Greatly recommend!
