Anne Craven , NCPS

Anne Craven uses an integrative, client-centred approach to counselling. She combines practical, solution-focused work with trauma-aware methods to help people cope with distress. Anne is identified as NCPS, which stands for National Certified Professional Somatic practitioner, and she has been practising for 12 years. She works from the United Kingdom and holds sessions in English.

Anne aims to make sessions straightforward and focused. She helps people who are struggling with anxiety, stress, depression, addiction and trauma. She also supports those facing relationship strain, grief, parenting challenges, problems with sleep or eating, and issues with self-esteem.

Her background includes substantial work with people who experienced childhood or adult trauma, and with those managing mood disorders and personality difficulties. That experience informs how she plans therapy and the pace she sets with each person. Anne draws on attachment-based thinking to look at how early relationships shape present patterns.

In practice she uses solution-focused steps to set clear, achievable goals and client-centred listening so the person feels heard. She also works with trauma-focused techniques to help reduce distress from past experiences. Sessions tend to balance practical strategies with time to process feelings and memories.

Anne offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. People begin by using the Start Therapy button, completing a short matching questionnaire, and then booking a time that fits their schedule. The subscription model for sessions can be cancelled at any time.

Approach-led online counselling that fits your life

Anne uses attachment-based ideas and client-centred listening to guide online work. Attachment-based therapy looks at how early relationships influence current patterns, and it can help people who struggle with trust, intimacy or repeated relationship problems. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel understood and can find their own solutions.

She also brings trauma-focused methods into online sessions when past events continue to cause distress. Trauma-focused work helps people process difficult memories and reduce their hold on day-to-day life. Deciding which approach to use is collaborative; the therapist will discuss options and tailor the way forward to match a person's needs, goals and preferences.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls work well for in-depth conversations, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat offers a shorter real-time check-in, and text messaging supports ongoing, brief exchanges between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties or travel and let people choose what feels most workable.
