About Anna
Anna Antoniou is a psychotherapeutic counsellor in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. She is a registered member of the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society (NCPS), and she aims to create a calm, approachable space where people can speak openly about difficult topics. Anna focuses on practical help for everyday struggles rather than long lectures or jargon-filled sessions.
She helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression and life changes. Relationship concerns, intimacy-related issues and parenting strain are part of her work. She also supports people facing trauma, addictions, grief, anger and career worries.
Anna pays attention to how culture, identity and religion shape a person's experience. She is drawn to midlife challenges, infidelity and working with those affected by cancer. Her background also includes adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, chronic illness and attachment concerns.
Her approach combines client-centred listening with tried practical tools from cognitive behavioural therapy and psychodynamic ideas about patterns and history. She also offers hypnotherapy as a complementary technique in sessions when appropriate. Anna aims to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different ways of coping.
Sessions are intended to help people feel understood and more able to make changes they choose. To begin, she asks people to describe their main concerns and goals so sessions can be shaped around what matters most to them.
How Anna’s approaches work online
Anna uses client-centred therapy to prioritise what the person wants to talk about and to offer a compassionate, listening presence that helps them feel heard. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) offers short practical tools to spot unhelpful thinking and try different behaviours that can ease anxiety, low mood or anger.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Anna will work collaboratively to decide what feels most helpful based on a person’s goals and preferences, and she may combine listening, CBT techniques, psychodynamic discussion and hypnotherapy elements where appropriate.
If you are considering online work, check the session formats available before booking as the biography does not list specific formats here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by removing travel time, allowing a shorter check-in during a work break, or avoiding the need to be on camera if that helps someone feel more comfortable. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly use conversational tools and short practical exercises online that mirror what happens in person.
