About Anne
Anne Craven is an NCPS registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with 12 years of practice. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions and anger. She also helps people dealing with relationship strain, grief, sleep and eating concerns, and parenting pressures.
Anne uses an integrative approach that draws on client-centred and trauma-focused ways of working. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. She listens to how problems show up now and looks at how early life and attachment patterns might keep them repeating.
Her background includes work with people affected by childhood and adult trauma, post-traumatic stress, personality and mood disorders, and low self-esteem. She also offers support for those coping with life changes, compassion fatigue and ADHD-related concerns. Anne mentions inner child work as part of her trauma-informed practice.
In the room she combines practical steps with reflective work. That might mean setting small, achievable goals one week and exploring early relational experiences the next. She uses solution-focused techniques to break problems into manageable pieces and client-centred listening to keep the work grounded in the person's priorities.
People looking to manage anger, control issues or communication problems will find focused, straightforward help. Her approach aims to reduce reactivity and improve how people respond under stress.

How her approaches translate to online work
Anne draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current reactions. That approach focuses on patterns of connection and can help with anger that comes from feeling threatened or rejected.She also uses client-centred therapy which centres the person's experience. This means sessions often begin with the client describing what is most pressing and the therapist reflecting that back to clarify priorities.
Trauma-focused work is used when past traumatic events are keeping someone stuck. This involves paced, careful conversations about memories and coping responses, alongside practical strategies to manage distress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Anne will discuss options and together they decide which methods suit the person's goals and preferences. That collaborative choice may change as progress is made.
The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy around work and family life and reducing travel time.
