She moved into mental health after a long career in another field and now focuses on supporting people through stress, anxiety, depression and relationship challenges. Anne listens for each person's strengths and builds on them to help people move forward.

Anne also works with people who are neurodivergent and those living with chronic pain or long-term health challenges. Her approach is straightforward and grounded in evidence-based therapeutic techniques.

Anne encourages clients to see themselves as the expert in their own story. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person's needs. She aims to create a space where people can talk through difficult feelings and practice new ways of coping.

Many people come to Anne for help with relationship strain, reuncovering confidence after loss, or navigating separation and family-of-origin issues. She is used to working with a range of emotional and practical problems and supports people in setting achievable goals.

Anne speaks English and Norwegian. She works from Australia and asks prospective clients to use the Start Therapy process to match and schedule sessions. The initial steps include a short questionnaire and arranging sessions according to her availability.

Therapeutic approaches and what online work can offer

Anne uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and practical steps. One common method helps people identify unhelpful thinking and try new ways of responding to stress and low mood; it is useful for anxiety, depression and self-esteem work. Another approach emphasises trauma-informed care, helping people stabilise emotion, improve grounding and reduce the impact of past abuse on day-to-day life.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy journey. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods match their needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as progress is reviewed.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, such as during a lunch break or between appointments. It can also reduce travel time and help people continue regular meetings when schedules or circumstances change. Because session formats are not specified in the biography, confirm current online options and scheduling details before booking to make sure they suit your routine.
