About Anna

BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years' experience, Anna Conway-Cowin focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and related concerns using client-centred and trauma-informed approaches. She works with issues including depression, anger, relationship and intimacy concerns, eating and self-esteem, and supports people coping with life changes and career pressures. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are accepted.

Anna describes her approach as person-focused and attentive to the whole individual. She pays attention to feelings, thoughts and bodily responses rather than only the words someone uses. That means sessions can involve noticing how emotions appear in the body, reflecting on patterns of behaviour, and exploring personal meaning.

Her practice draws on Client-Centred Therapy, Jungian ideas, Trauma-Focused Therapy and Internal Family Systems. In practical terms this can look like steady listening, mapping different parts of experience, and working through the effects of trauma at a comfortable pace.

People come for help with a wide range of difficulties, including self-harm, sexual assault and abuse, personality-related concerns and phobias. Anna aims to support people in managing symptoms and building clearer ways to cope day to day.

Sessions are arranged through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time; costs vary with location. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How her approaches work in online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience. The therapist reflects what is said and helps the client make sense of feelings and choices, which can help with anxiety, depression and relationship concerns. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on the effects of traumatic experiences and on reducing their ongoing impact. It aims to stabilise distressing symptoms and develop practical coping strategies for people affected by abuse or other traumatic events. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, needs and preferences, and together decide which methods to try. That collaborative process helps shape sessions as issues change over time. Please confirm the available session formats before booking as the biography does not specify them. Online sessions are often useful for fitting therapy into a busy life - they can cut travel time, make it simpler to schedule appointments around work or caring duties, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Discussing practical arrangements at the first meeting helps match session length and frequency to everyday routines.
