About Annie

Annie Taylor is a counsellor registered with NCPS who has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem and motivation issues. Annie speaks English and frames sessions around practical conversation and straightforward support.

Annie uses simple, direct dialogue to help clients make sense of difficult feelings. She listens for what matters most and helps people find small, realistic steps they can try between sessions. Hypnotherapy and mindfulness are part of the approaches she uses when they suit a client's goals.

Her background includes work across a range of community settings. She has helped people coping with long-term illness and those who have needed guidance within the criminal justice system. This variety has shaped a down-to-earth style that focuses on what can change now rather than distant promises.

Annie says she will not turn people away for seeking help. She is comfortable supporting people through chaotic or stuck times and will suggest practical ideas when appropriate. She describes her role as sitting with clients while they look for solutions and test different ways of handling difficult moments.

Sessions aim to be conversational and goal-focused. Annie will work with each person to agree on what to try next, whether that means practising breathing and mindfulness techniques, exploring past experiences, or using hypnotherapy exercises where helpful. The emphasis is on doable steps and clearer thinking.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy places the client's experience at the heart of each session. The counsellor focuses on listening, reflecting back what she hears and helping the client clarify goals. This approach suits people who want straightforward conversation and collaborative planning.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and manage strong feelings. It can help with stress, anxiety and anger by giving practical tools to calm the body and refocus the mind during tense moments.

Hypnotherapy involves guided relaxation and focused imagery to explore thoughts and habits from a different angle. It is sometimes used alongside other approaches to address motivation, sleep or patterns that clients want to change.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and suggest what to try first. This is a collaborative decision and can change as progress is reviewed.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as the profile does not list them explicitly. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals often tailor session length and timing to fit everyday life rather than requiring a major schedule change.
