Annie Taylor

Annie Taylor is a counsellor who works from a client-centred approach. She focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem and issues around eating and body image. Annie aims to listen without judgement and shape conversations around each person’s needs. She has three years of professional experience working across different parts of the sector before moving into independent practice. That background includes supporting people with long-term illness, people who have been involved with the criminal justice system, and young people who wanted guidance. Annie says she will not turn away someone who reaches out for help. Annie uses Client-Centred Therapy to place the person’s experience at the heart of sessions. She also draws on mindfulness techniques to help with stress and emotional regulation, and hypnotherapy when appropriate to support habits and motivation. In practice this means short exercises, gentle reflection and practical suggestions you can try between sessions. She describes her role as companionable rather than a fixer. Annie aims to be present in difficult moments, tolerate stuckness and offer straightforward ideas when helpful. She respects individual difference and encourages people to find their own answers. Annie works in the United Kingdom and communicates in English. She holds the NCPS credential and arranges therapy through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and then schedules sessions according to the therapist’s availability.

How Annie’s approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience first. In practice this means the counsellor listens and follows the client’s lead, helping people speak about what matters most and decide the next steps themselves. This approach can help with relationship concerns, self-esteem and coping with life changes.

Mindfulness Therapy uses simple attention and breathing exercises to reduce stress and manage strong emotions. It usually involves brief guided practices and reflection that you can repeat between sessions to build steadier day-to-day responses.

Hypnotherapy involves guided relaxation and focused attention to support habit change and motivation. It is used alongside talking therapy to address issues such as low motivation, sleep problems or ingrained unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs, and together you will decide which techniques to try. This is a collaborative process and may change as you progress.

For practical matters, confirm the available session options before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example, by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins, or enabling you to join from a quieter location. Registered or accredited professionals often use online work to keep therapy flexible and consistent with everyday routines.
