About Anna
Anna Bridgland BACP is a counsellor in the United Kingdom with seven years of professional experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family and parenting concerns, and related struggles such as low self-esteem and depression. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted.
Her approach is practical and conversational. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice unhelpful thoughts and habits, and Client-Centred Therapy to keep the focus on what matters to the client. In a session she will listen, reflect what she hears, and suggest manageable steps to try between meetings.
Anna also supports people coping with grief, trauma and abuse, addiction-related problems, anger, intimacy issues and career pressures. She often addresses communication problems, guilt and shame, isolation and questions about life purpose and self-love. These topics are handled in clear, task-focused sessions that aim to break big problems into smaller steps.
Sessions follow a straightforward process: a short initial match questionnaire, then scheduling the first appointment. Costs vary by location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. Before booking, clients should check the current session options and scheduling details.
Her practice emphasises regular review of goals and simple skills practice. People who prefer structured work on thoughts and behaviour alongside open, client-led conversation tend to find this blend useful.
How CBT and Client-Centred Work in Remote Sessions
Anna uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot thinking patterns that keep problems going and to try small experiments that change those patterns. CBT is practical and focused, often useful for anxiety, stress, low mood and social phobia. Client-Centred Therapy is conversational and follows the person’s concerns, helping them feel heard and to set their own priorities for change.Choosing an approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has worked before, then try methods that fit those aims. Sessions can shift between structured CBT tasks and more open client-centred conversation as needs change.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, avoid travel time, hold shorter check-ins when life is hectic, or reduce the need to be on camera. Registered or accredited professionals provide these sessions and will discuss how to schedule appointments that suit everyday routines.
