About Anna
Anna Geraghty is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years of experience. She works with people who are going through stress, grief, anxiety, depression and other difficult life changes. Anna aims to offer calm, practical support when things feel overwhelming.
Anna focuses on bereavement and end-of-life issues alongside broader concerns such as relationship strain, parenting pressures, career uncertainty and coping after redundancy or retirement. She also supports people with bipolar disorder, ADHD and those on the autism spectrum, and has experience working with intellectual disability contexts and hospice settings.
How Anna works
Her style is down-to-earth and collaborative. Sessions are shaped around what a person needs that day, using straightforward techniques and goal-focused conversations. She listens first, then helps identify small steps a person can take to feel steadier.
Anna draws on client-centred ideas to follow the person’s priorities, cognitive behavioural techniques to look at unhelpful thinking patterns, and solution-focused methods to build practical plans. These approaches are used together to match the issue at hand and the person’s preferences. People who prefer clear, practical help tend to find this approach useful.
Anna encourages homework tasks when helpful, short check-ins to track progress, and pacing that respects how much someone can manage. The aim is to restore calm and move forward at a manageable pace.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Client-centred therapy begins by following the person's lead and creating space to talk about what matters most. It helps when someone needs to feel heard and to make sense of difficult emotions. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at thinking patterns and practical behaviour changes. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and stress by teaching simple tools to break unhelpful cycles. Solution-focused therapy concentrates on strengths and small steps that move a person towards their goals rather than dwelling on problems.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Anna will work with each person to pick methods that fit their needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative conversation so plans can be adjusted as progress is tracked and circumstances change.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues and longer conversations, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging works for quick check-ins or shorter updates. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family or medical appointments while keeping the focus on steady, achievable progress.
