How Anna's approaches shape online therapy
Anna uses a person-centred approach that puts the client's priorities first. Sessions involve open listening, gentle questioning and collaborative goal-setting to help people work through stress, loss and relationship concerns.She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours. CBT techniques can be practical tasks between sessions, such as testing beliefs or trying small behaviour changes to improve mood and sleep.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapy process. Anna will work with each person to decide which methods suit their needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process that can change as people make progress.
The original biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people maintain continuity of support while juggling work, caregiving or health needs.
