Eirini Anane-Crane
Person-centred counsellor using CBT and mindfulness
About Eirini
Eirini Anane-Crane uses a person-centred approach at the heart of her practice. She combines that with cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness to help people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and low mood. She has ten years of experience working across counselling, helplines and mental health services in the United Kingdom.
Eirini keeps sessions straightforward and practical. She listens first, then helps people notice patterns in thinking and behaviour. That can lead to simple changes in daily routines, coping strategies and ways of relating to others.
Background and approach
Mindfulness practices are used when helpful to reduce overwhelm and improve focus. Her background includes work in crisis services, helpline and online counselling, and face-to-face therapy. She also teaches counselling and mentors volunteers and staff in clinical roles.
This experience means she is familiar with fast-moving situations as well as longer-term therapy work. Eirini has supported people with a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, perinatal issues, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related difficulties, grief, self-esteem and multicultural challenges. She also brings additional focus to attachment, abandonment and caregiver stress among other areas.
Sessions are offered in English and Greek and she accepts international clients. Eirini holds BACP accreditation which reflects her professional standing with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She aims to work collaboratively so people feel understood and can make steady progress.
To begin, she encourages a clear first conversation to identify goals and practical steps. Eirini adapts her style to each person, balancing empathy with targeted techniques to build coping skills and resilience.

How client-centred, CBT and mindfulness work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel understood and can explore their own solutions. It is useful for building trust, improving self-esteem and working through relationship or cultural concerns.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect. It helps with anxiety, depression, stress and unhelpful patterns by teaching practical techniques to change thinking and behaviour.
Mindfulness Therapy uses simple attention and breathing practices to reduce overwhelm and increase present-moment awareness. It can support people managing trauma reactions, rumination or intense emotions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your concerns, discuss options and try methods that fit your goals and preferences in a collaborative way. Goals and methods are reviewed as therapy progresses so the plan can change if needed.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone is useful for shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited, live chat and messaging suit people who prefer writing or need flexible timing. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and travel while still working with registered or accredited professionals.
