Annie Anderton

I currently have availability on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday evenings and Saturdays

Hi, I'm Annie, a passionate counselor committed to encouraging growth and resilience. My is my main focus is to create a safe environment for individuals to navigate life's challenges whatever they face

Life for us all is complex collection of experiences. Some are affirming and build us up, some are challenging and bring us down while others make no sense at all and leave us feeling confused. I don't know what situations have brought you to this point in time and to be reading this profile, but I hope wherever you are in life, you find the help and support I believe everyone deserves.

I am a deeply passionate person who will try my utmost to meet you in whatever you have experienced through my compassionate, creative, non-judgemental, ethical approach. The time we spend together will be about you and your experiences of the world.

I have worked therapeutically with people for over 10 years. I started working in children's palliative care before working for a national childhood bereavement charity.

From here, I qualified with a Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and now work for the NHS and The Listening Post alongside seeing people in my counselling room in Gloucester.

I am an integrative therapist drawing from psychodynamic, person centred, and compassion focused models. This means I meet you in your current experiences while thinking about how past experiences have affected you while understanding the drives that make us respond.
