About Anna
BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 16 years of experience. Anna Griffiths focuses on relationship and LGBT concerns alongside grief, anxiety and other life stresses. They use the Gottman Method and Internal Family Systems in their practice and work directly with people to address intimacy, parenting pressures and identity-related challenges.
Anna helps people talk through relationship problems and issues connected to sexual and gender identity. They also support those coping with loss, career strain, addiction concerns and ongoing stress. Sessions emphasise practical steps and clearer ways to manage difficult feelings rather than jargon or labels.
Their approach starts with the client’s story and strengths. Anna listens for patterns that keep causing pain and then explores small, workable changes. The Gottman Method is used where relationship dynamics are central. Internal Family Systems is used to notice the different parts of a person that hold worry, shame or anger.
Clients who are navigating gender dysphoria, HIV or AIDS–related concerns, first responder strain or ethics of non-monogamous relationships can bring those topics into sessions. Anna also supports work on self-esteem, anger, ADHD-related challenges and coping with life transitions.
Sessions aim to produce tangible tools to manage stress and improve relationships. The tone is direct and practical, with attention to real-life routines and limits. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled through the See online therapy options button.

Approaches used and what online work looks like
Anna uses the Gottman Method to look at concrete interaction patterns in relationships and help people reduce conflict and rebuild trust. That method focuses on communication skills, problem-solving and slowing down heated exchanges. Internal Family Systems is used to identify and work with the different parts of a person that carry fear, shame or protectiveness, helping people understand inner voices and shift how they respond.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Anna will discuss which methods fit a person’s needs and mix approaches as appropriate. This is a collaborative process based on the client’s goals, preferences and what emerges in early sessions.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as the profile does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when days are tight. It can also let people join from different locations without needing to rearrange other commitments. Registered or accredited professionals usually discuss practical arrangements at the first booking and adapt sessions to match the client’s everyday routine and access needs.
