Anna Richardson

I have availability on Tuesdays and  Wednesdays.

I provide a safe, confidential space, where we will identify and work through what is troubling you. We will look into how past events influence your current life and relationships. As you undertake this journey, I will guide and support you, so you will get a better understanding of self, your feelings and, consequently, your life.

In addition to private practice, I worked as a Counsellor at Highgate Counselling Centre. Before training as a Counsellor, I had worked as an art curator, and writer, so I understand and encourage creativity when working with my clients.

I hold a diploma of Psychodynamic Counselling/Psychotherapy, and I am a registered member of BACP (British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists), bound by its ethical code.

It is difficult to predict how long therapy will last. Some focused difficulties are more suitable for short-term therapy, which usually last 12 weeks; other difficulties are more suitable for long-term therapy. We can discuss which option will suit you best at the initial consultation. 

In addition to my face-to-face practice, I work with clients online (Zoom). 

After an initial conversation on the telephone, I offer a consultation interview which lasts 50 minutes. The consultation will provide an opportunity for us both to explore your difficulties and decide what is the best way forward and see if we can work together. 

If we do agree to continue, we will meet once a week for 50 minutes on an agreed day and time.

Most of the people who are experiencing mental health difficulties are primarily concerned with the wellbeing of others, and do not have time and space for themselves.

Starting therapy is an attempt and an opportunity to look at yourself. This may be an unfamiliar experience, and may create some anxiety, but with the guidance of an experienced professional, it could become an exciting journey.

Please get in touch if you feel ready for it.

I have availability for online therapy.

Whether you're battling anxious thoughts, struggling with persistent sadness, or simply feeling lost, there is a way forward—and you don't have to walk that path alone.

I offer a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your inner world and understand how past experiences, unconscious thoughts, and deep-rooted patterns influence your feelings and behaviors. Together, we will uncover emotional conflicts and unresolved issues that may be contributing to your anxiety, depression, or sense of disconnection.

The goal isn't just symptom relief but fostering long-term emotional growth, self-awareness, and the ability to build healthier, more fulfilling relationships. Therapy is a journey of self-discovery and healing, helping you connect the dots between your past and present to create a more meaningful future.

Taking the first step towards seeking help is not a sign of weakness—it's an act of courage. 

Remember, hope exists, you're not alone, and most importantly, you are worthy of care, support, and healing

The beauty of therapy lies in its personalisation.

 Every individual's journey is unique, and a skilled therapist will work with you to create a tailored approach that meets your needs.

As a psychodynamic therapist, I believe the therapeutic relationship itself is an essential part of the healing process. 

Through open dialogue and reflection, you can gain valuable insights into your emotional struggles, recognize recurring patterns in your relationships, and address feelings you may have been avoiding for years.

If you are interested in starting therapy at my private practice, I will offer you an initial consultation on a day and time we have agreed. It will last 50 minutes and it is £50.

This time format has being proven to be sufficient for us get a feel of how it would be to work together.
