Anna Geraghty, NCPS

Anna Geraghty is a counsellor who specialises in bereavement and loss and works from a client-focused perspective. She has three years of experience and practises in the United Kingdom. Anna aims to help people who feel stuck or overwhelmed take practical steps toward feeling better.

Anna offers a calm, non-judgemental space to talk through difficult feelings. She tailors sessions to each person's needs and works at a pace that feels manageable. Her style is straightforward and supportive, with an emphasis on finding helpful, day-to-day ways to cope.

She regularly supports people struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, grief and life changes such as divorce, redundancy and retirement. Anna also supports people with bipolar and attention differences, and has experience with autism and Asperger Syndrome and intellectual disability. She helps people address parenting and family strains and the anger that can come with major change.

Anna draws on Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy to shape sessions. That means conversations focus on the client’s priorities, practical steps to change unhelpful thoughts or patterns, and quick strategies to move forward when needed.

Her approach is collaborative: she listens, offers options, and helps people choose what to try between sessions. Parents and individuals who want clear, practical support for everyday challenges may find her approach helpful.

How these approaches translate to online work

Anna uses Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy in her practice. Client-Centred Therapy means the conversation centres on what matters most to the person and the counsellor follows their lead to build understanding and support. CBT looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and helps people try different ways of thinking or acting to reduce distress. Solution-Focused Therapy aims for small, practical steps and quick strategies to move forward when life feels stuck.

Finding the best approach is part of the work together. Anna will talk through options and adapt methods based on the client’s goals, needs and preferences. This is a collaborative process and plans can change as progress is made.

Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, cut travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people choose a quieter moment during the day and keeps work or caring responsibilities from blocking access to support. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors and therapists, use these approaches effectively in remote sessions when they are a good fit for the person.
