About Anna
Anna Antoniou is a psychotherapeutic counsellor practising in the United Kingdom. She holds NCPS (National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society) registration and has five years of professional experience. Anna presents herself as warm and approachable and aims to make talking about difficult topics feel straightforward.
She helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression and major life changes. She also supports those dealing with relationship and family concerns, grief, addiction, anger, intimacy questions and self-esteem struggles.
Background and approach
Anna pays attention to how cultural background, identity and religion shape a person's experience. Anna draws on several therapeutic approaches when working with clients, including client-centred methods, cognitive behavioural techniques, hypnotherapy and psychodynamic ideas. In sessions she prefers an empathetic, non-judgemental stance so people feel heard rather than analysed.
Practical steps and emotional support are combined to address present difficulties. She has particular interest in issues that emerge around midlife, infidelity and serious illness such as cancer, and in matters connected to adoption, abandonment and blended family dynamics. Anna also offers help around caregiver stress, chronic illness, body image and commitment concerns.
Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. She encourages people to take small, manageable steps and to set goals that fit everyday life. To begin, follow the site instructions to match with her and arrange a first session.

How Anna works online
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. It uses practical strategies and exercises to reduce anxiety, manage mood and change unhelpful patterns in daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. The counsellor will work with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. That choice is collaborative and can be adjusted as progress is made.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the available session formats before booking so you know what to expect. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments around work and family life, can reduce travel time, and can allow for brief check-ins when a full session is not needed. It also means people can continue with therapy through life changes while keeping appointments consistent.
