About Anthony
Anthony Welsh offers calm, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed by day-to-day life. He aims to help people regain a sense of control when stress, low mood or difficult life events interfere with routine. He approaches conversations with empathy and without judgement.
Creativity is sometimes used to open up new ways of talking and reflecting. He has five years of clinical experience and holds a BACP membership, which he lists as his professional credential.
Background and approach
Anthony trained in counselling at the University of Essex and also holds a BA (Hons) in Humanities and Philosophy from Birkbeck, University of London. He brings that background into sessions through clear thinking and straightforward language. Anthony works with many common concerns including anxiety, depression, stress and low self-esteem.
He also supports people facing grief, addiction, trauma, long-term health issues and relationship difficulties. Practical conversations focus on what is getting in the way of daily life and simple steps clients can try between meetings. His style blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas with attachment-based and client-centred ways of working.
Sessions are collaborative - clients set the pace and decide what they want to address. Anthony aims to be direct but warm, helping people notice patterns and try different responses. Sessions are offered in English and are delivered remotely.
Prospective clients use a short online questionnaire to be matched and can choose from several session formats. Fees use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

Online support
He also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at relationship patterns and how early connections shape current reactions, which often helps when intimacy or communication is a struggle.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adapt techniques in a collaborative way rather than following a single method.
Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that helps, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or health needs and provide flexible ways to keep progress moving.
