Anna Bramley, BACP

Anna Bramley is a BACP-registered therapist working in both private practice and the NHS. As a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - a professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists - she combines clinical standards with a practical, compassionate approach. Her training is in Integrative-Relational Psychotherapeutic Counselling, which allows her to draw on multiple psychological theories and tailor the therapeutic approach to the individual needs of each person she sees.

She has experience supporting people with stress and anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, depression, and a range of other concerns. Anna places the therapeutic relationship at the centre of her work, offering a warm, caring, and respectful presence while listening carefully to understand each person’s unique experiences. Her approach is grounded in objective assessment and collaborative exploration so that clients can better understand what is happening and identify practical ways forward.

Anna believes that present difficulties are often shaped by past experiences. Working together to explore those influences can reveal ingrained patterns and behaviours that may be unhelpful in current relationships and situations. Increased self-awareness is presented as a route to greater choice, resilience, and improved self-esteem.

Throughout the course of therapy Anna encourages open dialogue about the process, welcomes questions, and routinely reviews progress to ensure the work remains relevant and helpful. She recognises that starting therapy can feel daunting and acknowledges the courage involved in taking that first step.
