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 NCPS (National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society). Her work often centres on grief, stress, anxiety and life changes, and she aims to offer a calm, respectful space where people can talk things through.
Anna takes a warm, non-judgemental approach in sessions. She prefers to understand each person’s story rather than jump to labels. This means time is spent listening, reflecting, and helping people find practical ways to cope day to day.
Her background includes helping with relationship strain, intimacy-related issues and the impact of trauma and abuse. She also supports people facing illness, caregiving stress, and major life transitions such as separation or career change. Anna pays attention to how culture, identity and religious background shape a person’s experience.
Therapy sessions may draw on Client-Centred ideas to focus on what matters to the individual and on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques to tackle unhelpful thoughts and patterns. Hypnotherapy and psychodynamic perspectives can also be used where they suit the person’s goals.
Anna describes herself as approachable and easy to talk to. She aims to empower people to make changes that feel manageable. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the usual process.

How Anna’s approaches fit with online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and uses listening and reflection to build understanding. It helps when someone needs a space to make sense of feelings and decide what they want to change. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviours and offers practical techniques to reduce anxiety, manage low mood, and change unhelpful habits.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss options and agree a plan based on what the person wants, their goals, and how they respond in session. That collaborative process can include trying different methods and adjusting the approach as needed.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by removing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a work break. It can also make it simpler to keep continuity of care when schedules or locations change. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt techniques such as CBT exercises or client-centred listening to an online setting to help people build coping skills and move towards their goals.
