About Anastasia

Anastasia Seale is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with seven years' experience. She works with adults, children and young people on concerns including anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and family difficulties, and trauma and abuse. She also supports people facing parenting stresses and issues around attachment and intimacy.

She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside attachment-based and psychodynamic approaches to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and patterns. Sessions focus on clear, practical steps to try different ways of responding to problems. Conversations are direct and structured when needed, and explore personal history when that helps make sense of current difficulties.

Her work covers a broad range of issues such as anger, self-esteem, coping with life changes, compassion fatigue and chronic illness. Additional areas include abandonment concerns, blended family issues, body image, communication and commitment worries. She also addresses dissociation and co-morbidity when these issues come up in sessions.

Anastasia offers help in English and Russian. Her practice is informed by work with intergenerational trauma, infant loss and other forms of loss and grief. She aims to support people to develop everyday strategies for managing symptoms and repairing strained relationships where possible.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first session. Sessions operate through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How her approaches are used in online sessions

She commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and attachment-based work in online sessions. CBT focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current ways of relating and helps people notice relationship patterns that cause distress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and together they will decide whether CBT, attachment-focused work or a different element of her approach should guide sessions. This is a cooperative process that can change as needs do.

Confirm the session formats available before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online sessions can help fit therapy into everyday life by reducing travel time, making scheduling easier around work or family, and allowing quicker check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals often use online work to keep continuity of care and to offer structured, regular sessions that suit busy routines.
