Anne-Marie Andersen, BACP

Anne-Marie Andersen is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom who draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and psychodynamic ideas in her work. She has three years of professional experience and helps people who are feeling stressed, anxious, low or stuck. She listens to each person’s story and treats them as the expert in their own life.

Anne-Marie focuses on practical steps people can try between sessions and on looking at patterns that have shaped current difficulties. She offers a calm space to talk about things like trauma, anger, low self-esteem and motivation. Conversations are straightforward and aim to make things feel more manageable.

She also supports people dealing with specific life challenges, such as divorce, caregiver strain, chronic illness, problems with trust and attachment, or a midlife crisis. Work can include talking through painful memories, building new routines, or testing small changes to improve daily life. Anne-Marie explains options clearly and helps people set realistic short-term goals.

Her sessions often balance present-focused techniques and exploration of past experiences that still affect day-to-day feelings. The emphasis is on practical tools plus understanding how past patterns influence current choices. People leave with concrete ideas they can try between meetings.

Anne-Marie speaks English and accepts international clients. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and uses that framework in her practice.

How CBT and Psychodynamic Work Online

Anne-Marie uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thoughts and actions that keep problems going. CBT focuses on current patterns, gives simple exercises to practise, and helps with anxiety, low mood, stress and day-to-day coping.

She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at how past experiences and relationships shape current feelings and choices. This approach helps when someone wants to understand repeating patterns, attachment issues or deep-rooted emotional responses.

Finding the right way of working is part of the therapy. Anne-Marie will discuss what feels most useful and tailor the mix of practical steps and reflective work to each person’s goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as work progresses.

The biography does not list specific online formats, so please confirm the session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, cut travel time and offer quicker ways to check in between sessions. Some people prefer shorter, focused check-ins when time is tight, while others choose longer meetings for deeper reflection. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises and conversations to suit different rhythms and needs.
