Anna Channon, BACP
Anna Channon is a BACP-registered counsellor with four years of client work.
About Anna
Anna Channon is a BACP-registered counsellor with four years of client work. She works with people who feel disconnected from themselves and their bodies. She often supports those coping with depression, anxiety, trauma and major life changes.
She trained with a degree in Psychotherapeutic Counselling and has practised since 2020. Her style is relational and integrative, so sessions focus on the relationship between client and counsellor and draw on different ideas as needed.
Background and approach
Anna pays attention to how the body and breath reflect emotional experience. Sessions may include gentle breath work, movement and creative exercises alongside talking. No artistic skill is required for the creative parts; they are tools to help people notice patterns and feelings.
Many clients find these methods useful when verbalising alone feels difficult. Anna has worked with issues such as bereavement and loss, anxiety, stress, sexual abuse, and trauma. She also helps people with relationship concerns, low self-esteem, sleep and eating problems, and caregiving strain.
Her additional interests include attachment and abandonment themes, body image, chronic illness, and forgiveness. She is based in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English. Anna welcomes questions about how she works and what to expect from short or medium-term therapy.
Please note she is due to begin maternity leave in early February 2025 and is currently arranging session length and commitments with that in mind.

Approaches Anna lists
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
She also uses client-centred principles to keep the work paced around the person. That means the counsellor follows the client’s lead, offers empathy and helps people find their own solutions rather than imposing answers.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Anna will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and will adapt the methods used as trust and clarity grow. That process is collaborative and reviewed as the work develops.
Online formats make this kind of work more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face connection and visual contact for movement or breath exercises. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins and ongoing reflection between sessions. These options can help fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments.
