About me and my therapy practice
Are you feeling overwhelmed and struggling to manage your emotions? Or are you a parent who has observed changes in your child's emotional wellbeing and are looking to get them some support.
My name is Annie, and I work with children/young people (aged 11+) and adults seeking therapy for a range of reasons including; Anxiety, depression/low mood, self harm/suicidal ideation, emotion regulation, distress, life changes, loss/bereavement.
I can meet you where you are at in your life and support you to make/achieve changes that you wish too. I can help you do this by supporting you to set realistic/achievable goals for yourself and then assist you in making these goals happen.
If it is your first time accessing therapy and are feeling worried about it we can explore those feelings together. I’m here to provide a safe and confidential space for you where you can learn coping skills that you can use going forwards. In this space I want you to feel safe and supported.
Please get in touch to book a free 15 minute telephone consultation, call me on .
Practice description
My practice is called Calm Mind Warwickshire. In our busy and demanding lives it can be challenging to feel calm and I want to help people to achieve a calmer way to live.
I provide a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space in my counselling room which is located in Warwick.
I am a qualified Counsellor specialising in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy. CBT is a talking therapy and has been proven to help with a range of mental health problems. I helps you to identify and connect the thoughts, feelings and behaviours that may be causing you difficulties and provide you with tools and coping skills to help you learn and make changes for yourself. This will help you find positive ways of being and teach you coping strategies that you can utilise for life.
I work alongside my private practice in the NHS completing mental health assessments for children and young people. My 15 years of NHS experience has enabled me to gain a range of skills including:
* mental health assessments for children/adolescents.
*Primary and Secondary school focussed work in mental health promotion.
*Consulting and support to parents to navigate the appropriate support for their children.
*Leading focus groups for transgender adolescents.
*Supporting young people and adults with substance misuse difficulties.
*Support for parents with neurodivergent children.
*Experience of navigating the SEND system with parents.
*Bereavement counselling with adults in a hospice setting.

My first session
I offer an initial no obligation 15-minute telephone consultation free of charge, prior to the first session. This will help you to decide if you would like to work with me.
The consultation will include what you would like to gain from counselling and whether I am best suited to help you.
Choosing the right therapist to work with is really important and so, in our first counselling session together I will complete an initial assessment. This is where I will gather more information about your history / story in order for me to gain a deeper understanding of you and your reasons for coming to therapy. This will include your expectations of the sessions, and the goals you want to achieve. You will have the opportunity in this session to ask any questions and address any concerns you have about counselling.
If you decide that you would like to work with me, we can arrange regular counselling sessions, and discuss a suitable time for you.
