About Anna
Anna Channon is a psychotherapeutic counsellor with four years' experience. She works with people who feel disconnected from themselves and their bodies. Anna often supports those who have experienced acute or low-level trauma and who want to understand themselves better to make changes.
She holds a degree in Psychotherapeutic Counselling and is registered with the BACP. Her background includes work with bereavement and loss, trauma, anxiety, depression, stress and sexual abuse. This range means she is used to helping people through painful life events and transitions.
Anna uses an integrative, relational style. Sessions can include talking alongside gentle body-centred practices such as breath work, movement and creative activities. No artistic skill is needed for the creative elements; they are tools to help people notice how their body and mind respond.
Her work pays attention to attachment and relationship patterns. She draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at how early experiences influence current feelings and behaviour. The focus is on making sense of patterns rather than quick fixes.
People who prefer a reflective, exploratory approach often find this helpful. Anna can support issues such as sleep difficulties, self-esteem, eating and relationship struggles. She also works with chronic illness, caregiver stress, fertility and other life challenges.
She is open to discussing whether short or medium-term work suits your needs, and encourages potential clients to get in touch to talk through how therapy could fit into their life.
How Anna’s approaches translate to online therapy
Anna draws on attachment-based work to look at how early relationships shape current feelings. This approach pays attention to safety in relationships and helps people understand patterns in how they connect with others.She also uses client-centred ways of working, which place the client's experience at the heart of sessions. That means the therapist follows your lead, listens closely and helps you notice what matters most to you.
Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Anna will work together with each person to choose which methods suit their goals and needs. That choice is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses.
The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around work, family and travel. Online sessions can make it easier to schedule shorter check-ins or regular meetings without commuting.
