About Anna

I worked within the Corporate Sector for twenty years as a successful people manager, mentor and business coach.

After taking voluntary redundancy I decided to re train as a Counsellor because I feel passionately about working with people and supporting them to grow to realise their best potential.

I work in the beautiful Dorset town of Wimborne. 

In response to COVID-19 I offer walk and talk sessions in various locations that are easily accessible from Wimborne, Verwood, Ferndown, Poole, Bournemouth, Ringwood and Blandford.

I also work online and over the phone which allows more flexibility in appointment booking times and saves you time and travel.

I am a registered member (379799) of the BACP (British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists) and adhere to their Ethical Framework.

I hold Personal Indemnity Insurance with Balens Insurance.

I hold an enhanced DBS Certificate.
