Anna Koolen

I am an integrative counsellor based in Surrey, UK and provide counselling online and face to face. Working integratively means that I tailor how I work to each client’s needs and goals.

People usually come to therapy because there is a problem of some kind. This might be anything at all – life changes, relationships, bereavement, needing support to figure things out. Sometimes we might just feel a little lost.

Whatever the reason, I will always meet you where you are and together we will work to find the solutions that are right for you. I offer a safe and welcoming space that is free of judgement, where the client's needs and goals always remain the focus. 

After an initial assessment, we decide if we can work together. If I feel you need a more specialised therapist, I will signpost you. Crucially, you also need to feel that I’m the right therapist for you, so the assessment is for both of us to ensure we’ll make a good team.

I came to counselling because I am hugely fascinated by people – what shapes us, what makes us who we are and how we relate to each other and the world around us. Of course there is a strong drive in me to help and support people and I have absolute faith in the power of therapy.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Sessions take place weekly, either in person at my private practice in Surbiton or remotely via Zoom. 

I work on an open-ended basis and all details of notice of ending and cancellation policy are covered in the contract, which I will go through in our initial assessment and send to you ahead of our first session.
