How Annabel works

Annabel draws on client-centred work to build a respectful, non-judgemental space. She also uses psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat over time and shape current difficulties. Together these approaches help explore relationships, self-worth and reactions to stress.

People come to Annabel for common concerns such as anxiety, low mood, low self-esteem, and coping with life changes. She also offers support around attachment issues, communication problems, divorce and separation, and workplace difficulties. Other focus areas include guilt, shame, infidelity, loneliness and multicultural questions.

Her own experience of living between cultures gives her a practical understanding of feeling out of place or struggling to belong. Sessions can be conducted by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs and schedules.

Online support options

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on giving people a respectful, non-judgemental space to talk. The counsellor listens closely and follows the person's own pace, which helps with anxiety, low self-esteem and relationship worries. Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns from the past that affect how someone reacts now; it can help when repeating relationship difficulties or feelings of emptiness are getting in the way.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and decide together which methods suit the situation best. This collaborative process means the approach can shift as needs change over time.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for busy lives. Video calls let people read facial expression and tone for fuller conversation, while phone sessions can be a simpler way to check in with less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter, flexible check-ins or moments when a written reply feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments.
