Background and approach

Sessions focus on understanding the patterns behind low mood, relationship strain, or low self-esteem. Annabel pays attention to how past experiences shape current reactions and relationships. Her approach is gentle and intuitive, combining client-centred listening with psychodynamic reflection.

This means she follows what matters most to the person while helping them notice recurring themes or feelings that affect daily life. People often bring worries about work, relationships, feelings of emptiness, or coping with life changes. Annabel can support those dealing with guilt and shame, jealousy, infidelity, attachment concerns, and workplace problems.

She also helps people navigating divorce, separation, or the stress of adapting to another culture. Practical goals can include clearer communication, steadier self-esteem, and better ways to manage anxiety. Sessions are structured around the individual’s needs, with space for both short-term coping and deeper self-understanding.

Therapeutic approaches online and how they help

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience. The therapist reflects what is said, offers empathy and supports people to find their own solutions; it can be helpful for anxiety, low self-esteem and decision-making.

Psychodynamic Therapy looks at how past experiences and patterns influence present feelings and relationships. It involves noticing recurring themes and emotional responses to gain clearer self-understanding and reduce repetitive distress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Annabel will talk with the person about their goals and preferences and choose ways of working together that feel most helpful. This is a collaborative process and can combine practical coping with deeper reflection.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging offers flexibility. Video lets you see facial cues and have a more traditional session. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day and need less bandwidth. Messaging and live chat suit shorter check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping continuity of care with a registered professional.
