About Anna

Anna Antoniou helps people with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns using a mix of talking therapies she practises. She is a member of the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society (NCPS) and has five years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.

Anna describes her way of working as non-judgemental and person-focused. She aims to listen and respond rather than simply analyse, and she encourages practical steps people can try between sessions. Sessions typically involve talking through current problems and looking at patterns that keep them stuck.

Her practice covers a wide range of issues, including depression, coping with life changes, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, parenting and anger. She also works with concerns linked to abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment issues, and blended family problems.

Anna uses several approaches in her work, including client-centred therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), hypnotherapy and psychodynamic therapy. She adapts these methods to the problem presented and the preferences of the person in front of her.

Clients may find her helpful when dealing with body image, chronic illness and caregiver stress, career pressures, communication and commitment issues, and relationship breakdowns. Sessions are offered in English and are provided within the UK context.

How Anna uses therapy approaches in online sessions

Client-centred therapy focuses on the person's own goals and perspectives. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what is said and supports the person to find their own solutions; it helps with confidence, relationship concerns and decisions about life changes.

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses structured discussion and simple exercises to test unhelpful thinking and develop new coping habits, which can help with anxiety, stress and low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Anna will discuss options and try different ways of working together so the sessions fit the person's needs, goals and preferences. That choice is made collaboratively rather than imposed.

If you plan to use online sessions, check the available formats before you book because the biography does not list specific session types. Confirming formats helps you pick a way of meeting that fits your routine and technology. Online counselling can make it easier to attend sessions around work or family commitments, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so you can fit therapy into a busy day.
