Annie Taylor, NCPS

Annie Taylor is a counsellor who uses a person-centred way of working. She aims to create a respectful, non-judgemental space where people can talk about what feels hard. Annie encourages clients to find their own answers while offering practical suggestions when helpful.

She has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and holds the NCPS credential. Annie has supported people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem and motivation. She also works with concerns such as addiction, grief, eating and sleeping difficulties, bipolar challenges and the demands of life change.

Her background includes work with a wide range of people across different services, including those with long-term illness and those who have had contact with the criminal justice system. That variety has informed a flexible approach that adapts to each person's situation and needs.

Annie draws on client-centred techniques, mindfulness and hypnotherapy as ways to help people manage overwhelming feelings and build coping skills. Sessions focus on listening, exploring what matters to the person and trying practical steps that can be used outside sessions.

She values honesty, connection and individuality and says she can sit with difficult emotions without rushing to fix them. To begin, clients are invited to reflect on their goals and work together to decide the best next steps.

How Annie’s approaches translate to online therapy

Annie works from a client-centred foundation, which means sessions focus on what the person needs and values. In practice this looks like open listening, gentle reflection and building steps that a person feels ready to try. Client-centred work is useful for many issues including stress, relationship concerns and low self-esteem.

Mindfulness therapy is about learning simple attention and breathing exercises to reduce overwhelm and improve focus. These techniques can help with anxiety, sleep problems and managing difficult emotions. Hypnotherapy involves guided relaxation and focused attention to support new ways of responding to old patterns; it can be used alongside other approaches to address habits, anxiety and motivation issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, try different techniques and adjust the plan based on what helps most. This is a collaborative process that respects the person's pace and preferences.

Session formats are not specified here, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, illness or family commitments. They also allow shorter check-ins or the use of audio-only time when that better suits a person's day-to-day needs.
