About Annabel
Annabel Minors is a counsellor with 12 years' experience working with people who feel stuck or overwhelmed. She offers calm, attentive listening and a straightforward approach to help clients talk through worries about relationships, work or everyday stress. Annabel works in English and French and is based in the United Kingdom, drawing on lived experience of adapting to life in a different country.
Her style is warm and down to earth. Sessions focus on understanding what is getting in the way now and on small, practical steps people can try between meetings. She aims to make the process manageable and to help clients regain confidence and clearer thinking.
Annabel uses Client-Centred Therapy alongside psychodynamic ideas. That means she places the client's perspective at the centre of sessions and also pays attention to patterns from the past that affect current feelings and relationships. Together you will explore what feels most important to address next.
She has supported people with anxiety, low mood and depression, and with low self-esteem or a lack of confidence. Annabel also helps people facing relationship difficulties, workplace stress, feelings of emptiness and issues linked to cultural adjustment.
Her approach is compassionate and intuitive. She encourages honest conversation, helps to identify underlying causes, and supports practical changes so people can move forward from difficult or confusing times.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy places the client's experience at the heart of sessions. It involves active listening, reflecting what the client says, and working at the client's pace to build confidence and clarity. This approach can help with anxiety, low mood, relationship worries and self-esteem issues.Psychodynamic work looks at how past experiences shape current feelings and patterns. It helps people notice recurring ways of relating or reacting so they can choose different responses. This can be useful for attachment difficulties, feelings of emptiness, guilt or shame, and longstanding relational problems.
Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will help you decide which style or mix fits your needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process, and plans can change as you learn more about what helps.
