About Anthony
He works in an integrative way, drawing on several approaches to suit each person's needs. That means sessions may include practical techniques to manage symptoms and time to look at deeper patterns that get in the way of change. His practice focuses on recovery and on helping people manage longer-term problems as they arise. He describes the work as a joint venture and sets goals together with the person in the room.
Anthony follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy ethical framework and takes monthly supervision. He also keeps up with continuous professional development to stay current with best practice. These arrangements shape how he plans and reviews his work.
People often come to see him for help with coping strategies, improving relationships, understanding attachment and working through trauma or loss. Sessions include discussion, practical exercises and collaborative planning so people leave with tools they can use between meetings.

How Anthony’s approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and to identify personal values to guide small meaningful steps. It is often used for anxiety, stress and chronic struggles where avoidance is a problem. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and how early bonds affect current reactions; it helps people who feel stuck in repeated relationship cycles or who want to understand trust and closeness issues. Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the centre, offering empathic listening and a non-judgemental space so someone can explore feelings and make their own choices.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then try methods together and adjust as needed. This is a collaborative process rather than a fixed prescription.
Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week and reduce travel time. The biography notes that messaging between sessions is available through the platform; other session formats should be confirmed before booking. People often find remote work helps them keep momentum between meetings and try techniques in daily life more readily.
