About Ann

Ann Marsh is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and low self-esteem. She offers calm, practical support to people wrestling with life changes and overwhelming emotions. Ann works in English and brings a warm, person-focused manner to conversations.

Ann uses a client-centred way of working that places the person’s concerns and goals at the centre of each session. She also draws on attachment-based ideas and cognitive behavioural techniques to help people understand patterns, responses and coping strategies. Sessions are shaped around what each person most needs in the moment.

With four years of practice she has supported people through issues such as panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, social anxiety and workplace difficulties. Other areas she addresses include abandonment, communication problems, guilt and shame, and questions about life purpose and self-love.

Ann is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That registration is noted as part of her background and professional standing in the United Kingdom.

Her approach is collaborative and straightforward. Conversations focus on what is useful next rather than on jargon. People can expect a practical, empathetic space to talk things through and work toward clearer ways of coping.

How Ann’s approaches translate to online counselling

Ann works from a client-centred foundation, which means the focus is on the person’s priorities and what they want to address. In practice this looks like listening first, then shaping sessions around the concerns brought by the individual and their goals.

She also uses attachment-based ideas to help people notice relationship patterns and how early connections affect current responses. This can be useful for worries about abandonment, communication problems and relationship anxiety. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of coping; it can help with panic, social anxiety and mood-related difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Ann will discuss options and tailor methods to the person’s needs, preferences and goals so that therapy feels collaborative rather than prescriptive.

Confirm the session formats available before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can offer effective support remotely, and Ann will help shape sessions so they work around everyday life.
