Approach to Support

 
Approach to psychology support - cognitive, emotional and experiential therapy
 
 

  • Client-centred

    You are a whole person shaped by your biology, relationships, experiences, environment and unique personality. Therapy will be based on your goals, and the approach is tailored to meet your individual needs.

  • Safe

    Humans are relationally wired and we thrive when we feel secure. The therapeutic relationship is, therefore, based on principles of respect, trust, non-judgement, and compassion.

  • Professional

    Drawing from years of clinical experience and training, the approach is evidence-based, confidential, and can fit in with wider health plans. Therapy is a big investment, so the therapeutic work will be purposeful and orientated towards your goals.

  • Collaborative

    Both you and Anna each bring your own strengths and resources and work together in partnership, at a pace and in a manner that meets your needs.

  • Cognitive, emotional and experiential

    It is important to explore and value different ways of ‘knowing’, to be able to make sense of your experience, and recognise your patterns so that you can then learn, choose, and practice the tools for growth and change.

“Anna is incredibly warm and insightful. I loved how in our work together we were always partners working together towards our goals. She helped me to untangle some difficult habits and feelings, and now I feel like I have tools to continue this work on my own.”
