Your life, your story

It can take time to find the right therapist so I’d like to explain a little about how I work

I am an integrative Counsellor and Drawing and Talking Practioner, offering online and in person therapy for adults and young people. Maybe you’re having difficulties with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, physical illness, disability, loss or coming to terms with past life events. Are you overwhelmed with feelings of despair, hopelessness or low self-esteem? Every client is different, and so is my approach, fully tailored to you and your needs. I am able to combine multiple approaches, including person-centred psychotherapy, cognitive, creative, holistic therapies and techniques, in a safe, caring, empathetic way.

let’s see if we are the right fit.

Whether using talk therapy, creative techniques, cognitive behavioural strategies, or practical coping tools, I aim to provide a safe and caring space for you to explore your feelings.

Confidentiality, trust, compassion and autonomy are at the heart of every session – therefore I give every client the opportunity, regardless of age, to be fully involved in planning their support, so we can build a strong, person centred, therapeutic relationship together.

Traditional face to face counselling doesn’t suit everyone – here are some of the more holistic, creative approaches I offer.

Online Therapy

Talk from the comfort of your own home, or wherever you feel most at ease.

Invisible Illness

Support for individuals, families, and friends living with bowel diseases.

Walking & Talking

Step outside, move at your own pace, and talk in a more relaxed, natural setting.

Group Work

Group work gives children and adults a safe space to explore and express their emotions.

Drawing & Talking

A gentle, creative therapy for children, young people, adults and older adults.

Laughter Yoga

A simple yet powerful way to boost your wellbeing, lift your mood and reduce stress.

I can highly recommend Anita. She gave great support to my daughter in helping her to understand and cope with her severe anxiety. She was also very supportive of us as parents and identified underlying issues that have given us a clear direction forward. Very easy to talk to and a great listener.

Parent

Anita has supported many children in our school with their emerging and wide-ranging social, emotional and mental health needs. She is experienced and well respected in her work. Anita is able to draw upon many approaches, such as talking and drawing therapy, lego therapy and laughter yoga. This support has been invaluable to the children and their families. She has really made a difference and is highly recommended as a practitioner.

Headteacher

Being a man, it is hard sometimes to talk about my feelings. I have been told that I internalise my feelings, but Anita changed my life. Her calm voice and understanding turned my life around. I recommend her!

Client

I have used Anita on occasions for my child’s drawing and talking sessions, Anita has always been very professional, kind, and a breath of fresh air. My child has made excellent progress from these sessions. I would 100% recommend Anita and the drawing and talking to anyone who would like their child to have sessions that may not feel talking is the easiest option.
