About Annie

Annie Taylor is a counsellor who uses a client-focused way of working. She aims to make each session feel practical and respectful. Annie helps people who are anxious, stressed, struggling with sleep, or facing big life changes. She meets people where they are and tailors conversations to each person’s needs.

Her approach draws on client-centred therapy, mindfulness, and hypnotherapy to support change. Sessions typically begin by clarifying what the person most wants to address and building simple steps forward. Annie listens for strengths and small wins, then suggests ways to build on them. She also uses calming techniques to help with sleep and anxiety symptoms.

Before setting up her own practice, Annie worked across different parts of the sector. She has three years of professional experience and has supported people with long-term illness and those who have had contact with the criminal justice system. That range informs a non-judgemental style and practical problem-solving.

Annie values honesty, connection, and individual difference. She describes herself as willing to sit with people in hard moments and to tolerate stuckness without rushing to fix everything. That steady presence is offered alongside goal-focused ideas when people are ready for them.

She holds NCPS as a credential. Sessions are offered in English and take place in the United Kingdom. To start, people follow the site sign-up process and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

How Annie's approaches work online

Client-centred therapy focuses on the person in front of the counsellor. It means conversations are led by the person's needs and goals, with the counsellor offering empathy and reflection to help the person find their own answers. This style can help with worry, low mood and relationship concerns.

Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and support better sleep. It helps people notice thoughts and sensations without getting swept away by them, which is useful for anxiety, stress and sleeping difficulty.

Hypnotherapy involves guided relaxation and suggestion to access focused attention and calm. It is often used to support sleep habits, reduce stress responses and reinforce positive routines.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Annie will talk with each person about their needs and preferences and try different ways of working until a good fit is found. This is a collaborative process where goals are set together and adjusted as progress is made.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel and allowing meetings between other commitments. It can also allow shorter check-ins when time is tight or sessions that focus on mindfulness exercises without needing to be on camera. Please confirm the exact session formats offered before booking so arrangements match your needs.
