About Anna
Anna Graham is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with six years of counselling experience. She began her career in mental health and social care and has since supported people facing a wide range of concerns. Anna aims to treat each person as an individual and tailor sessions around what will work best for them.
She creates a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk through their experiences.
Background and approach
Sometimes listening and reflection are enough to bring relief. Other times she and the client agree on practical strategies to manage stress, sleep problems, eating concerns or low mood. Anna has a focus on trauma-related work and uses methods designed to help people process difficult events.
She also supports those dealing with relationship strain, intimacy worries and identity questions, including LGBT concerns. Her approach balances emotional support with hands-on coping tools. People who prefer a collaborative style will find her flexible and direct.
She asks about hopes and expectations early on and builds a plan that fits the person’s goals. Sessions are paced to suit the individual and adjusted as progress is made. In practical terms Anna draws on client-centred ideas, mindfulness practices and trauma-focused techniques.
She can help with grief, anger, chronic illness challenges and the knock-on effects of stress. If a client wishes to focus on symptom relief or deeper processing, she works alongside them to choose the most useful steps.

How Anna’s approaches work in online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s goals and preferences at the centre of sessions. It involves reflective listening and joint planning so the person sets the pace and focus. This approach helps with everyday stress, low mood and relationship concerns.Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method that aims to reduce the intensity of distressing memories. In practice it involves guided processing of traumatic events and can be helpful for people with PTSD or trauma-related symptoms.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Anna will talk through goals, past experiences and what feels manageable, then suggest methods that fit. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as therapy progresses.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats available before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins during breaks, or remove travel time. Clients and therapists can focus on talking, learning coping strategies and using mindfulness techniques in ways that suit everyday life.
