About Anna
Anna Graham is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has six years of clinical experience and a longer background in mental health and social care. She aims to meet each person where they are and shape sessions around their needs and hopes.
She creates a calm, non-judgemental space for people to talk through what matters most. Some clients simply need an open ear and the chance to make sense of things.
How Anna works
Others prefer to learn techniques to manage stress, sleep problems, eating concerns or mood shifts. Anna tailors the approach to the individual rather than using a one-size-fits-all method. Much of her work focuses on trauma and its effects.
She uses trauma-informed approaches to help people process past events and reduce the day-to-day impact. This can include guided techniques for facing memories, and step-by-step plans to regain confidence and routine. Anna also supports people working through relationship and intimacy issues, grief and bereavement, identity and self-esteem concerns, and coping with illness or chronic pain.
She draws on mindfulness tools to help manage anxiety and improve concentration in everyday life. Sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Anna will collaborate on goals and adapt the pace to each person.
If someone wants practical coping strategies, short-term focus or longer exploration, she will work with them to shape the plan.

How Anna’s approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person without judgement. It aims to help people feel heard and to clarify what they want to change, which can be useful for worries about relationships, self-esteem and life changes.Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, is a structured method used to reduce the intensity of traumatic memories. It involves guided attention techniques combined with talking to help reduce the emotional charge of past events and improve daily functioning.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Anna will discuss goals and preferences and try techniques together to see what helps most. She adapts pace and focus so sessions can be short-term skill building or longer exploration depending on what the person needs.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues and body language when that is useful. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging can suit people who prefer writing, want ongoing check-ins, or need session contact that fits around busy days. Registered or accredited professionals can deliver these formats effectively, and they make it easier to fit therapy into work and family routines.
