About me

Hello, I am Anna. I am a BACP-accredited counsellor and EMDR therapist. I have found counselling helpful in my own life at various difficult times, including after a miscarriage, so I care very much about helping others. I welcome any adult who wishes to receive counselling support in their life, and I also work with couples who have lost a baby.



My clients have told me that they feel safe and find me easy to talk to. My specialities are bereavement, grief, and working with any maternity difficulties or distress you may be feeling. I am experienced in working with anxiety in pregnancy, pregnancy loss, birth trauma, post-natal concerns, fertility issues, and terminal illness.



My career has been mostly as an NHS midwife (qualified 2000), which included mentoring students. More recently I have worked as a counsellor (qualified 2020) in perinatal mental health/maternity services with people who have experienced baby loss and birth trauma. I spent just over a year working in a local hospice-at-home team, which enriched me with more knowledge and understanding of end-of-life care.

I also work with Petals charity, alongside my private practice in counselling. I am a wife and mother, and enjoy walking my dog, swimming, singing and meditation.

I feel compassion for people going through difficult times and have always found it a privilege to work as a counsellor. I aim to be alongside and support you through grief and transition, to facilitate accessing your inner strength moving forward, and to hold a space for you to explore making meaning in your life.
