Eirini Anane-Crane, BACP

Eirini Anane-Crane brings a decade of focused practice in counseling and psychotherapy, developed through academic study and diverse professional roles across multiple sectors. She holds an MA in counseling and psychotherapy - a postgraduate master's degree - and is a member of the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Over the last 10 years she has worked as a psychotherapist and as a manager in mental health crisis services, delivering support in both face-to-face and helpline or online settings for individuals and groups.

Eirini's clinical experience covers a wide range of complex mental health concerns, including perinatal mental health, depression, past abuse and trauma, stress and anxiety, motivation, self-esteem and confidence, and cultural and relational issues. She has provided counseling related to pregnancy, miscarriage, and terminations, and has used play therapy for children under 15 to support early emotional development. Her work has also included culturally appropriate interventions and services aimed at BAME communities, as well as bespoke counseling within the criminal justice system to support ex-offenders on probation. In addition, she has experience in peer and survivor-led mental health services.

Her training is integrative, combining a person-centered core with trauma-informed perspectives and an understanding of attachment theory, with the therapeutic relationship held central to the work. Eirini also contributes to the field as a clinical supervisor, development coach for volunteers, and a lecturer in counseling and psychology. She approaches therapy with the belief that clients are experts in their own experience and that positive change is possible when the right conditions for growth are present.
