Annabel Minors
Calm, practical counselling for life changes
About Annabel
Annabel Minors is a counsellor with 12 years of experience supporting people through anxiety, low mood and life changes. She works in English and French and practices with a calm, down-to-earth style that many clients find easy to talk with. Annabel draws on her own experience of living between cultures to understand feelings of not fitting in.
Her sessions focus on listening without judgement and helping people make sense of what they are feeling.
Background and approach
She aims to help people identify the patterns that keep them stuck, and to find small, manageable steps towards change. Conversations are plain and practical rather than full of jargon. Annabel combines Client-Centred Therapy with Psychodynamic Therapy to look at both present difficulties and the past relationships that shape how people feel now.
This blend can help with problems like attachment issues, communication problems and repeated relationship patterns. It also supports work on self-esteem and coping with separation or divorce. She has particular experience with workplace stress, feelings of emptiness, guilt and shame, infidelity, jealousy and multicultural concerns.
Annabel can help people who feel isolated or who are dealing with coercive or emotionally abusive relationships to regain a clearer sense of themselves. Sessions can be delivered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, offering different ways to talk depending on what feels most comfortable.
She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, practising in the United Kingdom.

Approaches and how online sessions work
Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the centre of the work and focuses on building a trusting connection through empathic listening. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and self-esteem because it helps people feel heard and understood. Psychodynamic Therapy looks at how early relationships and repeated patterns influence current feelings and behaviour, which can help with attachment issues, relationship patterns and longstanding feelings of emptiness.Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be decided together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then tailor sessions as this understanding grows. This collaborative stance means the work can change over time to match what the client needs.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, giving several ways to connect. Video is helpful when a fuller conversation is needed, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, chat or messaging can suit brief check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make therapy more flexible for work schedules, childcare or travel and let people choose the way that best fits their life.
