About Anne
Anne Thorpe trained in counselling in the United Kingdom and has five years of professional experience. She holds BACP accreditation and uses that background to make therapy straightforward and practical. Anne takes an integrative approach and adapts methods to suit each person she meets.
She focuses on everyday difficulties like stress, anxiety and low mood. She also helps people facing relationship strain, trouble sleeping, anger, addictive behaviours and coping with life changes.
How Anne works
Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), grief and self-esteem are included among her areas of work. Anne believes people know their own stories best and brings a supportive, non-judgemental presence to sessions. She aims to help clients recognise strengths and find manageable steps forward.
Conversations are paced to each person, with practical ideas offered when useful. Her experience includes group work with women who have experienced domestic abuse and counselling people who faced homelessness and daily-life challenges. That background informs her plain-speaking style and steady support.
Sessions are available in English and are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. People start by using the Start Therapy button, completing a short matching questionnaire, and then scheduling sessions to suit both parties.

Therapeutic approaches and how online therapy helps
Anne uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts them to each person's needs. One common approach she uses focuses on practical coping strategies that help manage stress and anxiety day to day; this involves identifying triggers and trying small changes that reduce overwhelm. Another approach emphasises working through unhelpful patterns in relationships and self-esteem by noticing thoughts and behaviours, then testing new responses in everyday life.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Anne will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences, and she will adjust the plan as therapy progresses. That shared decision-making helps keep sessions relevant and useful.
Online therapy here is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is good when face-to-face conversation feels helpful, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or other commitments and give flexibility about how to communicate with a therapist.
