About Ann

Ann Marsh is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain and the effects of trauma and abuse. She works with adults who want clearer thinking, steadier moods and better ways to cope with change. Ann is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

Ann draws on several proven approaches to shape sessions that fit each person. She blends trauma-focused methods with attachment-based and client-centred ideas, and also uses elements of cognitive behavioural therapy and existential thinking when useful.

Background and approach

Sessions are practical and conversational, with time spent noticing patterns and trying small changes that can make daily life easier. Her style is calm and straightforward. She will help a person map difficult feelings, name unhelpful thoughts and practise different responses.

Work on relationship issues often centres on improving communication, setting clearer boundaries and understanding attachment needs. Ann has four years of professional practise in the United Kingdom and has supported people through panic and mood difficulties, grief around abandonment, workplace stress and feelings of guilt or shame. She aims to help people find clearer purpose and greater self-compassion.

People start by sharing what they hope to change. From there Ann tailors a plan that matches goals and preferences. She offers sessions online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging to suit different routines and needs.

Therapeutic approaches you can access online

Ann uses trauma-focused work to help people process distressing events and reduce their ongoing impact. This approach looks at how past hurts affect feelings and behaviour now, and supports steps to feel safer and more in control.

She also draws on attachment-based therapy, which examines how early bonds shape expectations in relationships. This helps people understand why they react a certain way in close relationships and practise new patterns that feel healthier.

Client-centred therapy is another strand of her work; it prioritises the persons own goals and pace. The therapist listens without judgement and helps the person find their own answers rather than imposing solutions.

Finding the right fit is part of the process. Ann will work collaboratively to decide which approaches suit a persons aims and preferences, adjusting methods as therapy progresses.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls recreate a face-to-face conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit around busy days, live chat allows quicker check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options can make it easier to schedule regular work on trauma, attachment and everyday coping skills.
