Anna GrahamBACP

Anna Graham is a counsellor with six years of clinical experience and a background in mental health and social care. She holds BACP accreditation and works from a person-focused perspective to help people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief or low mood. Anna is also experienced in trauma-related concerns and supporting people with issues around relationships and self-esteem.

She aims to provide a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk through what matters to them. Sessions are tailored to each person and shaped around their goals and preferences. Sometimes a single conversation brings relief, and other times a short plan of techniques and coping strategies is helpful.

Anna uses approaches that suit the individual, including trauma-focused work when needed. She explains options clearly and helps people decide what feels most useful for them. The focus is on practical steps that can make day-to-day life easier and on building resilience for future challenges.

Her practice also covers areas often linked with pregnancy and childbirth, such as anxiety, body image and changes in family roles. Anna supports people working through loss, illness, eating or sleeping difficulties and the long-term effects of past abuse.

People who choose Anna can expect collaborative planning, straightforward language and a steady, supportive presence during difficult moments. She encourages clients to set the pace and to shape therapy around their life and priorities.

How Anna uses trauma-informed and client-centred approaches online

Anna uses client-centred therapy to prioritise what matters to each person, focusing on listening, reflective conversation and practical planning to help with stress, anxiety and relationship concerns. This approach helps people set goals and choose techniques that suit their life.

She also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, often called EMDR, as a structured way to work through distressing memories and reduce their emotional impact. EMDR can be helpful for trauma symptoms and intrusive memories when paired with careful preparation and pacing.

Finding the right approach is part of the journey. Anna works collaboratively to weigh options and will adjust techniques based on a person's needs, goals and comfort level. Together they decide whether to focus on talking, learn coping tools, or try trauma-focused methods.
