About Anna

Anna Conway-Cowin is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years' experience. She works with common concerns such as stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma and abuse, anger, depression and relationship and intimacy-related issues. Sessions also cover eating difficulties, self-esteem, career questions and coping with life changes.

Anna uses a person-focused way of working that pays attention to feelings, thoughts and behaviour together. She draws on Client-Centred approaches alongside Jungian ideas and trauma-focused methods to help people understand how past events and internal patterns affect current reactions. The work often looks at why someone responds in certain ways and what might shift those patterns.

In practical terms, Anna helps people talk through difficult memories, strong emotions and repeated behaviours. She may use Trauma-Focused Therapy to address the impact of abuse and sexual assault, and Internal Family Systems ideas to help people notice conflicting parts of themselves. Conversations are direct and aim to increase awareness of triggers and responses.

People come to her for help with anger that shows up at work, at home or inside relationships. She supports exploration of underlying causes such as frustration, resentment or past trauma. That includes looking at thoughts, bodily reactions and choices about how to respond.

Her approach is intended to be straightforward and human. If someone wants to begin, they follow the site's process to choose online therapy options, complete a short questionnaire and book a first session.

Approaches used and how they suit online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and building understanding through open conversation. It helps when someone wants to talk through feelings, frustrations or relationship tensions and be heard without judgement.

Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on the impact of past traumatic events and on reducing their hold over day-to-day reactions. It can help with symptoms that follow abuse, sexual assault or repeated trauma and with strong emotional responses such as anger.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and together decide which methods to try. That collaborative process means approaches can be adjusted as the work progresses.

Confirm session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific online options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people choose whether to use video or quieter alternatives depending on what works for them and their schedule.
