Vanessa Anthony
,DipCouns
Having worked in care since 1996 I have always known this is my passion and vocation to help and support people whether singularly, couples or families in need.
I worked in the NHS Mental Health system for over 20 years and met some wonderful people over the years who have enriched my life and when 6 years ago I was looking to change the role I was doing counselling became the way forward for me.
I have run training and experience alongside each other to enhance my knowledge, skills develop my empathic approach and offer an honest and non judgemental counselling service to all who seek me out.
I know we are all individuals, sharing similar and different routes in life. We are on a journey and sometimes we become lost, stuck, anxious and question lots of things in our lives. For me offering a Person-Centred approach where you are the lead in the sessions, you are the one who changes where you go from here, is the way to offer autonomy and empower the client(s) to work on themselves and their problems and leave my sessions with positivity and a new found strength for the future.
Self Worth Self Esteem Self Belief - come start your journey with me and embrace a new world and a new sense of purpose and self .

"This online therapy was more effective than I had expected. It has been difficult as well, as the therapy is working well. I was also lucky to find my therapist. I recommend this to anyone who is ready for the hard time that comes with it. Only if there was a painkiller for heartaches..."

"Vanessa has been able to help me more then every therapist I have had in in the past. Where others have failed she has helped me with several break throughs. The ability to think about my answers over a 24 hour period instead of fast paced regular sessions have been the best. Highly recommend"

"After an initial recommendation for a therapist failed, I was able to find a much better therapist on the platform. She's been very insightful and helpful."

"I have been with Vanessa for a while now. Vanessa helped me through a very difficult time. She not only listened to what I was saying she also helped with practical tips which were really useful at that time. I have since kept theses tips up in everyday life.
Since now the difficult time as passed I have remained with Vanessa for therapy once a week which has helped me out so much and added so much to my everyday life. I have also found the website very helpful . I would not hesitate recommending Vanessa to other people she has all the right skills and more to offer."

"This works so well for people who don’t have insurance or the time to go sit down with an in person therapist. As long as you keep up with it and give serious responses you will get good returns."

"I just wanted to share how pleased I am with my work with Vanessa so far, and with the process of Online Therapy . I have tried face to face therapy in the past, and my experience with therapists was either a success or an aweful experience. I also tried another online website and found them extremely lacking and non caring.. Thus far, I absolutely adore working with Vanessa. She is above and beyond with her non-judgmental and professional help and kind demeanor. I'm so grateful to have found her.
As far as the program of Online Therapy I am also pleased. The goal of using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is very effective. The process is also helpful with the toolbox including worksheets, journal, and activity plan. I'm finding everything useful and effective.
So happy overall!"
Wonderful Therapist And Website! (December 02, 2021)

"Vanessa is a joy to work with. I feel like she completely understands the issues I'm having and is 100% on my side. She's the first therapist I have had that has recognized that there are underlying issues that need to be addressed from my past before I can truly move forward. I feel like I was meant to do this at this time."

"The option to be able to do things at my own pace with my busy schedule has been nice. Also, having worksheets and dedicated small things to sit down and work on have been extremely helpful to me and motivates me to want to sit and reflect on what I need to work on as opposed to traditional routes where everything is a verbal session once a week and it's up to you to remember what needs to be worked on."
