About Annie
Annie Taylor is a counsellor who uses a client-centred stance to help people through hard times. She holds the NCPS credential and has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. Annie aims to create a respectful, compassionate space where each person is heard and treated as an individual.
She focuses on practical, everyday issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, sleeping problems and difficulties with self-esteem. Annie also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, addiction, anger and the strain of major life changes.
Background and approach
She works with concerns often faced by LGBT people and others seeking understanding and acceptance. Annie describes herself as someone who listens without rushing to fix things. She tailors conversations and plans to each person’s needs.
That can mean trying gentle mindfulness techniques, using hypnotherapy where appropriate, or simply reflecting what is happening so a clearer next step can emerge. Her background includes varied roles across the sector, including work with young people, people with long-term illness and those who have had contact with the criminal justice system. These experiences inform a flexible, down-to-earth approach in sessions.
People who come to Annie often want practical suggestions alongside empathic listening. She aims to help clients notice patterns, practise small changes, and build skills to cope better day to day. Taking the first step can feel daunting, and she offers steady support through that process.

How Annie's approaches work for online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person in front of the counsellor rather than imposing a fixed plan. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps people find their own solutions. This approach can help with low mood, confidence and relationship concerns.Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention practices to calm racing thoughts and reduce stress. It can be useful for anxiety, sleep problems and managing strong emotions. Hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation and focused attention to help change habits or reduce the intensity of distressing memories; it is sometimes used alongside other techniques for issues such as anxiety or sleep difficulties.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about what feels most useful and tailor sessions to needs, goals and preferences. Decisions about techniques are collaborative and can change as progress is made.
Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around work and family life and reducing travel time. Online work can make short check-ins easier and allow sessions when leaving home would be difficult. Confirm the available session formats with the therapist before booking to make sure they fit with your routine.
