Anne Day
Compassionate counsellor focusing on strength and growth
About Anne
Anne Day uses a person-centred way of working that puts the individual's experience first. She explains things plainly and helps people talk through stress, anxiety, relationship worries, trauma and abuse, and grief. Anne has six years of practice as a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom.
She believes people bring knowledge and strengths that can help them move forward. Her approach blends gentle listening with practical steps. Sessions focus on what matters now and what the person wants to change.
Background and approach
Anne draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns from the past that affect present feelings. She also uses solution-focused techniques to set small, achievable goals between sessions. Trauma-focused work is offered when past hurt needs attention.
Anne helps people pace that work and notice safety and coping strategies that already exist. Existential ideas are used to explore meaning, choices and how people want to shape their lives going forward. People come with many related concerns such as body image, attachment worries, caregiver stress, codependency, addiction, dissociation, domestic violence, family problems and ageing issues.
Anne talks through these topics in straightforward language and supports practical coping skills alongside deeper reflection. Sessions are available in English and can be run online. The aim is to create a steady, collaborative process where the person sets the pace and goals for their own change.

How Anne's approaches work in online therapy
Anne uses client-centred work to create space for people to describe their experience in their own words and set their own priorities. This approach is useful for stress, anxiety and relationship concerns because it focuses on what the person finds most important and helps build on existing strengths.She also draws on trauma-focused therapy when past harm needs careful attention. That work aims to help people notice how trauma affects their thoughts, feelings and reactions, and to develop coping strategies to manage distress more effectively.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Anne will talk with each person about their goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then tailor sessions accordingly. Together they decide whether to emphasise reflection, practical problem-solving or trauma-paced work.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat or messaging suit shorter check-ins and written reflection, and asynchronous messaging lets people write when it suits them. These options help fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel and make regular sessions easier to sustain.
