Hello,

My name is Anna.

I am experienced, supportive and certified counsellor.

I offer online and telephone therapy for adults seeking support during difficult times, aiming to better understand themselves, or ready to explore meaningful change. I take a person-centered approach and integrate Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), tailoring each session to meet your individual needs and goals.

What can therapy do for me?

I support individuals facing emotional challenges, stress, feelings of being lost, and grief—especially the often misunderstood grief that comes with losing an animal companion. I believe that everyone has inner resources to help them navigate difficult times. Sometimes, all it takes is a safe and supportive space to reconnect with those resources and start moving toward becoming the person you aspire to be.

As a therapist, I am committed to providing responsible and ethical care. I work under regular professional supervision and maintain up-to-date therapist insurance, ensuring that you receive not only a warm and empathetic presence but also a professional and trustworthy therapeutic experience.

If you are ready to explore your emotions, experiences, and inner world in a space of acceptance, understanding, and mutual respect, I invite you to reach out. Together, we can work on what matters most to you — at your own pace and in line with your values.

I offer support in the following areas:

• Gaining a better understanding of yourself and your emotions

• Building authentic relationships with others

• Increasing self-esteem and self-acceptance

• Developing self-awareness and taking responsibility for your own choices

• Overcoming inner conflicts and emotional difficulties

• Coping with anxiety, depression, and stress

• Navigating life crises and times of transition

• Regaining a sense of meaning and direction in life

• Freeing yourself from the pressure to be “perfect” and allowing yourself to be who you truly are

• Creating a safe space for expressing yourself freely, without judgment or criticism
