Anna Graham , BACP

Anna Graham is a qualified counsellor who brings a compassionate, individualized approach to therapy. She holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and draws on several years of professional experience working in mental health and social care. Anna supports adults through a wide range of concerns, from work-related stress to trauma-related responses, and she adapts her methods to suit each person she sees.

Committed to treating people as individuals, Anna tailors sessions around clients' specific hopes and expectations. She provides a calm, non-judgemental space where people can explore their experiences and decide together how to proceed. For some, talking things through offers relief and greater resilience; for others, practical techniques and coping strategies are most helpful. Either way, Anna collaborates with clients to build a plan that addresses day-to-day stresses and long-standing difficulties.

Specialising in trauma work, Anna uses a range of specialist approaches designed to help people move forward after distressing events. She welcomes conversations about what someone is looking for and how to shape the work, and she aims to offer approachable, practical support for clients facing grief, anxiety, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, sleep problems, and many other challenges.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Healing

Anna offers several well-established approaches adapted for online work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, empathic space where the therapist follows the client's lead - this helps people clarify their goals and build confidence in their own resources. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method that helps people process distressing memories and reduce their emotional impact; it can be delivered with care in remote sessions for those recovering from traumatic events. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple awareness and grounding practices that reduce stress and improve emotional regulation, useful for anxiety, sleep problems, and daily overwhelm.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Anna works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as therapy progresses. This collaborative stance helps ensure the work feels relevant and manageable.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video or phone, plus options for live chat or text-based messaging allow people to access support from home or between commitments. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are not possible, while still working with licensed professionals and trained therapists to address meaningful change.
