About Anna

Anna Wright is a counsellor registered with the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression and life changes. Anna also helps with addiction issues, relationship and intimacy concerns, eating and sleeping problems, and work-related strain.

She draws on many years of practical experience, including a background in social work and counselling training. Anna completed a BSc in Psychology, an MSc in Forensic Psychology and an MA in Social Work, alongside counselling skills at levels 2, 3 and 4. That mix of practice and study informs how she approaches difficult situations.

In sessions she takes a person-centred stance, placing the client at the centre of deciding what matters. The counsellor will listen without judgement and help the client notice patterns, choices and options. Anna may also use elements of cognitive behavioural techniques and attachment-based ideas when these fit the person's needs.

Her work often focuses on helping people feel less stuck, build resilience and increase confidence. Anna aims to create a comfortable working relationship where people can talk through painful experiences and consider practical steps forward. She notes progress can include improved mood, clearer thinking and steadier self-belief.

Sessions are carried out in English and are provided from the United Kingdom. If someone wants to know more before booking, Anna invites people to send a message with questions and to use the site process to begin matching and scheduling.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Attachment-based work focuses on how early and current relationships shape feelings and reactions. Online sessions can be used to notice relationship patterns, practise new responses and talk through attachment wounds in a steady way.

Client-centred counselling emphasises the person’s own experience and choices. In remote sessions this means the counsellor follows the client’s lead, listens closely and helps them identify what matters most and what small steps to try next.

Cognitive behavioural techniques look at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. These approaches are often used to identify unhelpful thinking and to try practical exercises between sessions, which suits a goal-focused online rhythm.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Anna will collaborate with the client to decide which methods best match their needs, goals and preferences. That choice can be reviewed as therapy progresses to make sure the approach remains useful.

The original profile does not specify which online or in-person formats are offered, so please confirm available session types before booking. Many people find remote therapy helps fit appointments into busy days, makes shorter check-ins easier and reduces travel time, allowing sessions to slot into work or home routines more readily.
