About Anna-Lena

Anna-Lena Dube works with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, depression and coping with life changes. She uses an integrative approach that blends person-centred, psychodynamic and solution-focused elements. Anna-Lena is a BACP counsellor and has four years' experience in the field.

She draws on those three approaches to adapt sessions to each person's situation. Person-centred work focuses on listening and helping people find their own solutions. Psychodynamic ideas look at repeated patterns and past experiences that affect current feelings and relationships. Solution-focused work sets short-term goals and practical steps to change day-to-day coping.

Anna-Lena also explores how lifestyle factors can affect wellbeing. She discusses how nature and nutrition can influence mood and energy, and how small changes in routine may support psychological change. These topics are used alongside talking work rather than as separate treatments.

Her practice covers a wide range of concerns. In addition to the main areas above she works with abandonment issues, adoption and foster care matters, attachment issues, body image, caregiver stress, codependency, commitment and communication problems, control issues, dependent personality concerns, dissociation, divorce and separation, domestic violence, feelings of emptiness and family problems.

Sessions are offered in English and German. She accepts international clients and combines conversational work with practical goal-setting to help people make changes they can maintain.

Approaches used and what online sessions involve

Anna-Lena draws on person-centred work to focus on listening and helping people find their own solutions, which can be useful for feelings of low self-esteem and relationship concerns. Psychodynamic ideas are used to look at recurring patterns and past experiences that influence current reactions, helping when there are issues linked to attachment, abandonment or repeated relationship difficulties. Solution-focused methods set short, practical goals and steps you can try between sessions to manage stress or the practical side of life changes.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss options with each person and agree a way of working together based on needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and approaches can be adjusted over time as progress is reviewed.

The biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work, study or family commitments and can reduce travel time. It can also allow for shorter check-ins when needed and means you do not have to travel to an appointment, which helps some people stick with regular sessions.
