About Anna
Anna Graham is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with six years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, depression, relationship and family concerns, parenting challenges, sleep and eating issues, and anger. She also supports those coping with life changes and a range of related struggles.
Anna began in mental health and social care and has supported people through work stress and post-traumatic reactions. She treats each person as an individual and listens for what they want to achieve. Sessions focus on practical next steps as well as exploring feelings and past events.
Her style is grounded and straightforward. She offers time to talk things through and, when useful, introduces techniques to manage difficult feelings. That might mean learning simple coping strategies, practising mindfulness, or working through trauma-focused methods.
For people who have experienced trauma, Anna uses approaches aimed at processing difficult memories and reducing their impact on daily life. She will work collaboratively with a client to decide how to proceed, including whether to use EMDR or trauma-focused work as part of the plan.
If someone wants to start, Anna asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Costs vary with location, and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. Sessions are offered in English and she is not taking international clients.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions can work
Anna uses client-centred work to prioritise what matters to the client. This approach means the session follows the person’s concerns and goals, allowing time to talk and decide practical next steps together.She also offers Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) as an option for trauma work. EMDR involves a structured process to help reduce the emotional impact of distressing memories and can be useful for people who continue to be affected by past events.
Mindfulness therapy is part of her toolkit and focuses on simple attention and breathing exercises. These techniques are aimed at helping people notice their thoughts and feelings, reduce reactivity, and build steadier routines for stress and anger management.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Anna will discuss your needs, goals, and preferences and then suggest whether client-centred sessions, EMDR, mindfulness, or trauma-focused techniques are the best fit. This is a collaborative decision made over the first sessions.
Session formats are not specified in the profile, so please confirm the exact online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments around work, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid being on camera if that helps. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often use a range of approaches online, and Anna will help you choose what suits your life and aims.
