About Anna
Anna Clifton works with people feeling overwhelmed by stress, low mood, anxiety or big life changes. She supports those coping with relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, addiction and parenting strain. Anna aims to make first steps feel less daunting and helps clients find practical ways forward.
Anna holds BACP, which is the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She has five years of experience working with issues such as depression, trauma and bereavement.
Background and approach
Her approach adapts to each person rather than following a fixed script. In sessions she focuses on clear conversation and practical strategies. She listens for what matters most and helps people try manageable changes between meetings.
That can include building better communication, coping plans for anxiety, or steps to address substance use and codependency. Anna pays attention to the effects of life stages and loss, such as midlife shifts, ageing concerns, blended family stress and caring responsibilities. She also works with attachment and abandonment themes that can affect relationships and self-worth.
People meet Anna online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging. She supports international clients in English and uses a subscription model for sessions that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, users complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.

Online support
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has or has not helped before, then experiment with strategies together. Over time the plan is reviewed and adjusted so it fits the person’s day-to-day life and aims.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging, giving flexibility for different needs. Video suits in-depth conversation and visual cues, phone works well for shorter check-ins or where bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can help with quick reflections or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel while still receiving focused support from registered or accredited professionals.
