Ann Patmore

Ann Patmore welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by anger, stress or life changes. She works with individuals who are worried about anxiety, low self esteem, relationship strain and parenting pressures. Ann also supports people navigating ADHD, addictions and the long term effects of trauma and abuse.

Ann practises in the United Kingdom and has 12 years of professional experience. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She aims to treat people with respect, sensitivity and compassion while adapting conversations to each persons needs.

In sessions she focuses on practical ways to understand emotions and behaviours. That might mean looking at patterns that keep anger or anxiety rising, trying small changes between meetings, or building skills for concentration and motivation. She tailors the approach to what the person says is most useful.

Ann has particular experience supporting people diagnosed with ADHD later in adulthood and those struggling with focus and memory concerns. She also helps people facing family conflict, separation and issues around trust and abandonment.

Her style is collaborative and straightforward. She invites clients to set goals together and to adjust plans as progress is made. People who want clear, practical steps alongside empathetic listening may find her approach helpful.

Approaches to managing anger and stress online

Ann uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, practical steps. One common approach looks at thinking and behaviour patterns to reduce anxiety and anger, teaching simple tasks and strategies to change how people respond in heated moments. Another approach concentrates on attention and routine, helping people with ADHD improve focus, organisation and short-term memory through small, repeatable habits.

Finding the right way of working is collaborative. The therapist will listen to your goals and try methods that fit your needs, adjusting plans together as you notice what helps. Sessions are a joint effort to build skills and reduce symptoms that get in the way of daily life.

Please confirm which session formats are available before booking, as the biography does not specify formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments around work, childcare or busy days. It may also allow shorter check-ins, avoid travel time and let people choose how they wish to take part, which can help keep progress steady while fitting into ordinary routines.
