Annie Haggarty

I am currently available Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday's from 7am until 6pm.

 I can be flexible, please email me to find out my availability.

There are times in all our lives when things can feel difficult, overwhelming or simply too much to carry alone. Whatever has brought you to counselling, I offer a safe space where you feel heard, understood and accepted without judgement.

I am a qualified and experienced Counsellor MBACP and a Clinical Supervisor BSc ( hons).

With over 20 years' experience, I have supported people through a wide range of life's challenges. While my professional background includes extensive work in addiction and recovery, my practice is by no means limited to this. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, stress, depression, relationship difficulties, domestic abuse, loss, life transitions, low self-esteem, family issues and many of the emotional struggles that can affect us at different stages of life.

Alongside my professional experience, I also bring an understanding that comes from life's own journey.  I appreciate the demands, responsibilities and resilience that many people carry every day. This personal insight complements my training, allowing me to offer empathy without assumption and support without judgement.

I believe that every person has their own story, strengths and capacity for change. My role is not to tell you what to do, but to walk alongside you with compassion, curiosity and respect, helping you make sense of your experiences and discover a way forward that feels right for you.

Building a trusting therapeutic relationship is at the heart of my work. I offer a calm, safe and confidential space where you can explore whatever is important to you, at your own pace. Whether you are facing a current crisis, living with the effects of past experiences, or simply seeking a greater understanding of yourself, we can work together to help you move towards a more fulfilling and balanced life.

Above all, I believe everyone deserves to be met with kindness, compassion and hope, whatever they are facing.;;

I work face to face in Penzance, online or telephone counselling.

I work with individuals 18 years and above.

I have particular experience in:

Addiction - working alongside clients who are concerned about their own or someone else's addiction. Offering a safe space to explore, make changes when you are ready and techniques to support you.

Trauma and difficult experiences - we will work at your pace, allowing you to share and explore in a safe and confidential space.

Loss and bereavement - at some times in our lives, stopping and being is needed to acknowledge and process the thoughts and feelings that are being experienced.

Stress and anxiety - can be completely debilitating and impact many parts of our lives. With exploration and curiosity we can seek techniques to support and manage situations and life.

Reaching out for support can be one of the hardest steps to take, but it can also be the beginning of meaningful change. If you feel I may be the right counsellor for you, I would be privileged to support you on that journey.  I offer a 15 minute free telephone chat where we can see if we connect and there will be an opportunity for you to ask questions.

After this conversation if you decide to book a full session I will forward details of confidentiality and how to book and or cancel the sessions. 

At your initial full session we will explore what has brought you to seek counselling at your pace.
