Anne Day, BACP

Anne Day works in a person-centred way and draws on several approaches to meet people where they are. She aims to create an open space for talking through stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and grief. Anne uses straightforward methods so people can start to feel more in control of their day-to-day life.

She has six years of professional experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That membership means she follows recognised standards of practice in the United Kingdom. Her background includes helping people cope with life changes and the emotional impact of loss.

Anne blends client-centred listening with psychodynamic thinking to look at patterns that repeat over time. She also uses solution-focused techniques to set clear, manageable goals. For those affected by traumatic events she incorporates trauma-focused approaches to reduce overwhelming symptoms.

Her additional focus areas include things like attachment and body image concerns, caregiver stress, codependency and substance-related difficulties. She also supports people dealing with ageing and geriatric issues, family problems and forgiveness work. Sessions are practical and paced to each person’s needs.

Anne offers sessions in English and is able to work with people across different countries. She encourages a collaborative style where the person’s own knowledge of their life guides the work. Small steps and steady progress are central to her approach.

Practices that guide online therapy

Anne commonly uses client-centred work, psychodynamic ideas and trauma-focused approaches in online sessions. Client-centred therapy prioritises the person’s own view of their life and focuses on empathetic listening to help someone feel heard and understood. Psychodynamic therapy looks at patterns and past experiences that shape current feelings and relationships, which can help with recurring problems. Trauma-focused work addresses the impact of traumatic events with techniques designed to reduce intense reactions and improve daily functioning.

Choosing the right approach is a shared task. Anne will discuss goals, personal history and preferences and together decide which methods to try first. She regularly checks in and adapts the plan as progress is made so the work stays relevant to what matters most.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat is helpful for brief check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties and other commitments while maintaining continuity of care.
