NOT EVERYTHING THAT IS FACED CAN BE CHANGED,BUT NOTHING CAN BE CHANGED UNTIL IT IS FACED - James Baldwin
"Beyond her expertise, Anna Maria's compassionate nature and unwavering support provided me with a safe space to open up and confront my fears. Through her guidance, I not only gained a better understanding of my own struggles but also developed increased self-esteem and confidence in navigating through life's challenges"
I believe that even though your life is challenging, you can deal with your difficulties with confidence. Often we lack of the courage and the skills needed to sustain this journey. My therapeutic approach is to first listen to you in full acceptance and then help you to delete the programmes that hold you in a space of pain, doubt and confusion. It will be a journey. You will need perseverance. I will be there to support you in developing confidence and trust. Your story will unfold. Self-love and value will emerge and you will be able to identify your purpose and make positive choices.
Our therapeutic relationship will give you a further insight into your healing process. We are relational beings and to grow and evolve we need to "securely attach and bond" to the significant people in our life in order to develop independence and confidence. Unfortunately many of us didn't have the opportunity to experience healthy and safe relationships in their early life. This may have caused trauma, anxiety, confusion, unclear boundaries and disconnection. A therapeutic relationship offers you the opportunity to experience "the secure attachment", to develop trust in yourself and in others and to make the choices that bring healing in your journey.
I am BACP registered counsellor and IMAGO couple therapist. I am a qualified Mindfulness facilitator. I am DBS checked.
I practice online and face to face (Hazlemere - High Wycombe). I offer telephone consultations too.
I offer:

Life is complex, stressful and very challenging and at times we all need some help. I will assist you to identify the cause of your difficulty and to allow change.
In the last 25 years I assisted thousands of individuals and couples to make better choices, to deal with their issues, to access loving relationships, to connect with their wellbeing and to experience more clarity and freedom in their life.
My commitment is to help you as individual or as a couple to see what makes you to suffer and not to be at ease with yourself and others. I offer you understanding, discenement and tools for you to deal wih your difficulties and make choices that bring you what you wish to manifest in your life.
We are relational beings: we need somebody else to make sense of our feelings and life situations. Giving yourself permission to see me will be your first step towards self-love and change.
Counselling makes you aware of what is blocking you from expressing your full potential and offers you the tools for change and transformation.
Listening, empathy, encouraging awareness and expression, providing tools for self help, facilitating understanding towards clarity and better choices, dealing with trauma, relationships, beravement, anger, stress, anxiety, depression, health issues and abuse are some of my skills and qualities.
