Make a meaningful change

Though it's natural to feel a bit apprehensive about attending therapy, most people find it an enormous relief to start telling their story to a skilled, empathic and non-judgemental listener.

Anna forges genuine therapeutic relationships with her clients to help them better understand themselves and enable long-lasting, meaningful change.  

​

What to expect when working with Anna

Anna begins the therapeutic process by conducting a thorough assessment, looking at what has brought you to therapy, your current circumstances, your background, and what you would like to be different. Working together, you’ll then decide how therapy can be most effective.

 

​Anna tailors treatment according to your specific needs, drawing from a range of therapeutic approaches, including emotion-focused therapy.  Maintaining a small client base ensures that Anna can give personalised and attentive therapeutic care.

​

All services are currently provided via Telehealth, which has proved to be an effective and convenient option for many clients. The 2020 transition to online therapy was challenging for everyone, but many therapists have been pleasantly surprised by the effectiveness of Telehealth and the strong therapeutic bond that can be formed online.
