About Anna

Anna Clifton works with adults who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, low mood or difficult life changes. She speaks plainly and offers steady support so people can start to feel more able to cope. Her approach is practical and focused on the issues you bring to sessions.

Anna has five years of experience working with depression, anxiety and relationship difficulties. She also helps people facing grief, addiction, trauma and struggles with intimacy or self-esteem.

Background and approach

Additional areas of focus include parenting strain, career questions, midlife change and problems linked to attachment and abandonment. In sessions she aims to listen without judgement and to adapt the way she works to each person's needs. Conversations are focused on finding manageable steps and clearer ways to manage feelings.

Plans are reviewed as things change so the work stays relevant. Anna is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which she lists as her professional affiliation. She offers appointments from the United Kingdom and can work with clients internationally in English.

Session formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Practicalities such as cost and scheduling vary by location and are managed through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin the matching process, the site asks people to press the Start Therapy button and complete a short questionnaire before booking an appointment.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Anna lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

Approaches that guide online work and what to expect

Anna uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to focus on present difficulties and practical change. One common approach helps people recognise unhelpful thinking patterns and try new ways of responding to stress and low mood; this is useful for anxiety, depression and coping with life changes. Another approach she draws on pays attention to relationships and attachment, helping people understand patterns that affect intimacy and communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Anna will talk with you about your goals and preferences and together you will choose which methods to try. She reviews progress regularly and adjusts the plan if something is not helpful, so the process stays collaborative and tailored to you.

Online therapy offers flexibility and practical benefits. Video calls allow real-time conversation similar to face-to-face work, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer typing. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and daily life while keeping the focus on clear, manageable steps forward.
