About Anna

Anna Wright is a counsellor who supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief and low self-esteem. She also helps with depression, coping with life changes, addiction and relationship or intimacy issues. Anna works in a straightforward, person-centred way and aims to make sessions easy to understand and use.

She trained and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP. Before focusing on counselling she spent many years in social care roles, and she combines that practical experience with her counselling skills.

Background and approach

Her background includes study in psychology and social work alongside specific counselling training. Anna uses a person-centred style as her main approach. This means the client leads the pace and focus while she listens, reflects and supports them to find their own solutions.

She also draws on cognitive behavioural ideas, attachment-based thinking and mindfulness when these suit the issue at hand. Sessions are aimed at helping people feel less stuck and more able to cope. Practical tools, gentle reflection and goal-focused work can be part of the process.

Anna describes progress in terms of increased confidence, clearer thinking and better everyday coping. She offers online options including video calls, phone and text-based work. People can expect a collaborative process where problems are named, options tried, and change is reviewed over time.

Ways of working Anna names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

How Anna uses approaches online and what they involve

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps when someone struggles with trust, closeness or repeating painful relationship patterns by noticing and changing those patterns in sessions.

Client-centred counselling focuses on the person in front of the therapist. The counsellor follows the client’s lead, reflects what they say and helps them find their own solutions; this suits people who need to feel heard and make sense of their feelings.

Cognitive behavioural ideas are used to spot unhelpful thinking and try different responses. This approach can help with anxiety, low mood and situations where small changes in thinking lead to clearer choices.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Anna will discuss what seems most useful and try methods that match the client’s goals and preferences. The process is collaborative and reviewed as progress is made.

Online sessions give practical flexibility. Video calls are close to a face-to-face meeting and work well for in-depth conversations. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and suit brief check-ins or days when being on camera is difficult. Live chat or text messaging can fit into busy schedules and allow short, timely exchanges between longer sessions.
