About Anna

Anna Griffiths is a counsellor with BACP accreditation and sixteen years of experience. Anna works with people facing relationship strain, grief, anxiety, stress and questions around identity. They focus on practical steps to help people feel steadier and more in control of everyday life.

Anna uses clear, straightforward ways of working. Sessions are conversational and rooted in the person's story. Anna helps people notice patterns, try small changes, and build on what already works for them.

Background and approach

Over time Anna has supported people with addiction, trauma and abuse, anger, self-esteem and depression. They also work with concerns such as parenting stress, compassion fatigue, ADHD and career issues. Additional focus areas include first responder issues, gender dysphoria, HIV and AIDS, and non-monogamous or polyamorous relationships.

The Gottman Method and Internal Family Systems are part of the approaches Anna draws on. These methods are used to help with communication, emotional understanding and resolving repeating conflicts. Anna adapts these tools to fit each person's needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.

Sessions are offered in English and are held online using video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. The path into support begins by completing a short matching questionnaire and arranging sessions that suit the person's routine.

Therapeutic approaches and online options

Anna commonly uses the Gottman Method and Internal Family Systems in online work. The Gottman Method focuses on improving how people communicate and manage conflict, with practical exercises to reduce repeated arguments and rebuild trust. Internal Family Systems looks at different parts of a person's inner world and helps people understand and calm the parts that drive reactive behaviour.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Anna will talk with each person about their goals and concerns and suggest which methods might help most. Together they try approaches and adjust them to suit the person's needs and pace.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different lifestyles. Video calls work well for in-depth conversations and visual cues, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can fit short check-ins or people who prefer not to use a camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
