About Anne

Anne Craven is a NCPS registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with 12 years of practice. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship strain, trauma, depression, anger and related concerns. Sessions are focused and practical, aimed at helping people manage difficult feelings and make changes that matter in day-to-day life.

Her approach combines client-centred work with trauma-informed methods and solution-focused techniques. That means she listens for what matters most to the person and uses directed, short-term strategies alongside deeper therapeutic exploration. She also draws on Jungian ideas about inner parts and imagery when those perspectives help someone understand longstanding patterns.

Anne has experience supporting people who have lived with childhood trauma and adult trauma, and who present with mood disorders, personality-related struggles, low self-esteem and addictive behaviours. She describes her work as collaborative and grounded in real-life concerns, such as sleep problems, parenting strain, grief, career stress and intimacy issues.

In sessions she often helps people identify unhelpful patterns, try small behavioural changes, and reflect on where strong emotions like anger come from. Practical steps and short-term goals are combined with deeper reflection when that is useful. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session via the See online therapy options button. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are not currently accepted.

How sessions work

How her therapeutic approaches fit with online work

Anne uses client-centred therapy to focus on the person's experience and priorities. That approach emphasises listening, reflective conversation and practical steps the client wants to try. It helps with issues like low self-esteem, relationship strain and everyday anger.

She also practises trauma-focused therapy, which looks at how past hurt affects current feelings and reactions. This is used when trauma histories, PTSD symptoms or deep emotional wounds are part of the picture. It supports working through triggers and developing clearer responses to strong emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then try methods that suit the person. Decisions about pacing and focus are collaborative and can change as progress is made.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work and family life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people choose whether to work with visual tools or quieter audio-only conversations depending on comfort and bandwidth.
