About Anne

Anne Thorpe trained and qualified in counselling in the United Kingdom and has five years of practice experience. She works in an integrative way, blending different ideas and techniques to suit each person she sees. Anne aims to make therapy a clear, practical process that helps people manage day-to-day difficulties.

She supports people dealing with stress and anxiety, low mood and depression, relationship worries and self-esteem concerns. Other areas she works with include coping with life changes, addictions, grief, sleeping problems, anger and attention-deficit hyperactivity difficulties.

Background and approach

Her experience also includes one-to-one and group work settings. Anne believes clients know their own stories best and brings that viewpoint into sessions. She looks for strengths that can be used to tackle current problems, and she offers steady support while people try out different ways of coping.

Sessions aim to be collaborative and paced to what each person needs. Her background includes running an all-women group for people with experience of domestic abuse, and counselling people who had been homeless and were facing practical daily challenges. Those roles shaped the practical, down-to-earth style she brings to therapy.

If you want a counsellor who focuses on clear, workable steps and listens without judgement, Anne can help you explore changes and find better ways to manage life day to day.

What Anne works with

Everything Anne lists, in their own terms.

How Anne works online

Anne describes her work as integrative, which means she draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques chosen to match each person's needs. Cognitive techniques help people notice and change unhelpful thinking patterns, which can ease anxiety and low mood. Behavioural methods focus on practical actions and routines, useful for sleeping problems, low motivation and anger management.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The counsellor and client will explore goals, preferences and what has or hasn't helped before. They will then agree together on techniques to try and adjust them as progress is made, keeping the work collaborative and outcome-focused.

If you are considering online therapy, check the current session formats before booking so you know what is offered. Many people choose online work because it can fit around family life, work breaks and travel, and because it can reduce time spent getting to appointments. Talk with the counsellor about practical arrangements that suit your routine and communication needs before your first meeting.
