About Ann
Ann Ellison uses a client-centred approach alongside evidence-based methods to help people manage day-to-day problems. She draws on cognitive behavioural techniques and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to address thinking patterns and unhelpful habits. Ann is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has sixteen years of practice in the UK.
She often supports people dealing with stress, anxiety and low mood. She also helps those affected by trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem and sleep difficulties.
Background and approach
Sessions are practical and directed by what each person needs in the moment. Ann aims to build a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk about difficult feelings and make small changes. She works collaboratively to set goals and to try out strategies between sessions.
Therapy can include short skills practice, talking through patterns, and planning steps for daily life. Her background includes work across a range of common concerns such as relationship strain, grief, career decisions, coping with life changes and attention difficulties linked to ADHD. She focuses on straightforward tools and clearer thinking rather than complicated jargon.
People who choose Ann often want a steady, practical approach. She invites curiosity about what helps and what doesn’t, and adjusts methods as needs change. Taking the first step can be hard, and Ann aims to make it as manageable as possible.

Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try different techniques, and adjust methods based on what feels most helpful. This is a collaborative process where the client’s preferences steer the plan.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a busy day. Live chat or text messaging can be used for shorter check-ins or when writing feels easier. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around work, family and travel commitments.
