About Anna
Anna Channon is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years of client work. She works with people who feel disconnected from themselves and their bodies, and with those who have experienced acute or low level trauma and want to better understand themselves before making changes.
Anna trained with a degree in Psychotherapeutic Counselling and has worked with clients since 2020. She sees people dealing with grief and loss, anxiety, depression, stress and major life changes. She also works with those affected by sexual abuse and other trauma and abuse.
Her approach is relational and integrative. She uses Attachment-Based and Psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat between people. Client-Centred principles inform how sessions are paced and how a person’s own goals guide the work.
Anna often brings body-focused practices into sessions. This can include gentle breath work, movement and creative tasks to access feelings that are hard to name. No artistic skill is needed to try these activities; they are used to help people notice what is happening in the body as well as the mind.
She pays attention to issues such as attachment and abandonment, codependency, body image and communication problems. Anna also supports people coping with chronic illness, fertility and caregiver stress, and relationship pain such as divorce and separation.
People who prefer clear discussion about patterns, alongside practical ways to work with the body, tend to find this approach useful. Before booking, confirm which session formats are currently offered.
How sessions work
How Anna's approaches translate to online work
Anna blends Attachment-Based and Client-Centred approaches during online sessions. Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationship patterns shape current reactions and can help with abandonment, trust and relationship distress. Client-Centred work keeps the session paced around what the person wants to bring, helping them direct the focus and set goals.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Anna will help clients consider their needs, goals and preferences and try different methods to see what fits. That collaboration means the plan can change as things evolve and as a person notices what helps most.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around daily life, for example shorter check-ins during a lunch break or sessions that avoid travel time. Bringing breath work, gentle movement or creative tasks into an online session can still be practical and useful for people who want to include the body in their therapy.
