About Anna

Anna Rita Iaboni is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with five years' experience. She offers sessions in English and Italian and works with a wide range of concerns including anger, stress, anxiety, trauma, addiction and relationship difficulties. Her background includes performing arts and holistic therapies, which inform how she listens and responds in sessions.

She uses a mix of approaches to help people manage strong feelings and practical problems. Client-Centred work keeps the conversation focused on the person's experience. Cognitive Behavioural techniques look at thoughts and behaviours that maintain stress and anger. Attachment-informed ideas are used to notice patterns in relationships and communication.

In practical terms she helps people notice triggers, try small changes, and build better ways of responding when frustration rises. Sessions can include talking, short exercises and reflection on what happens between sessions. The emphasis is on steady, manageable steps rather than quick fixes.

Anna Rita also brings longer-term perspectives from psychodynamic and existential thinking to understand how past patterns and values shape current reactions. This can help when anger links to deeper issues such as abandonment, attachment wounds, or identity concerns. She frames this work in straightforward language and keeps aims realistic.

The process begins with a short matching questionnaire and a first session to agree goals. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. She does not accept international clients currently.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Anna Rita combines Client-Centred work, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Attachment-Based Therapy in online practice. Client-Centred work focuses on the person's experience and priorities, using open conversation to clarify what matters and what to try next. CBT involves practical steps to spot unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and to experiment with small changes that reduce anger and anxiety. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in relationships and helps people recognise how early connections shape current responses and communication.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss goals and preferences in the first session and help decide which methods to use. That is a collaborative process and can change as needs and circumstances evolve.

The practical benefits of online sessions include easier fitting of therapy into a busy week and choices about how you meet. Please confirm current session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online work can allow shorter check-ins, not needing travel, or sessions that suit quieter surroundings or lower bandwidth needs. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists, often find these options help people maintain momentum between sessions.
