About Anna

Anna Antoniou is a psychotherapeutic counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She has five years of professional experience and is a registered member of the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society (NCPS). Anna aims to create a warm, non-judgemental space where people can feel understood and able to talk through difficult issues.

She helps people manage stress and anxiety and works with relationship and family concerns. She also supports those coping with trauma and abuse, grief, addiction, low self-esteem, and major life changes. Her practice pays attention to how culture, identity and religion shape someone’s experience.

Anna takes a straightforward approach in sessions. She listens for what matters most to the person in front of her and focuses on practical steps that fit everyday life. Conversations are intended to build confidence, improve communication and help people find clearer ways forward.

Her background includes a mix of talking therapies, which she adapts to each person. She is particularly experienced in issues that often arise in midlife, infidelity, cancer, and family relationship strains. The NCPS registration is presented as part of her professional standing.

Anna welcomes people who are ready to make change and who want a supportive, down-to-earth counsellor. She encourages straightforward conversations about goals and what would feel most useful in sessions.

How Anna’s approaches can work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience. It helps when someone needs a compassionate space to talk and make sense of feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. This can be useful for anxiety, stress and low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Anna will work collaboratively to decide what feels most helpful based on a person’s concerns, goals and preferences. She discusses options and adapts methods rather than imposing a single way of working.

If you are thinking about online sessions, check the current session options before booking as formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people keep continuity of care while juggling work, family and health commitments. Registered and accredited professionals use different approaches and will help tailor sessions to what fits your routine and needs.
