About Anne-Marie

Anne-Marie Andersen is a psychotherapist who uses clear, practical conversations to help people feel steadier at work and in life. She draws on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and psychodynamic thinking to make sense of stress, anxiety and low mood. Anne-Marie works with clients to build on their strengths and take manageable steps towards change.

She has three years of professional experience in the UK and holds a BACP credential, which is recorded as BACP. Her practice focuses on concerns often linked to work and wellbeing, including stress, anxiety and depression, plus trauma and anger. Anne-Marie also supports people dealing with self-esteem, motivation, and confidence challenges.

In sessions she aims to create a calm, straightforward space for people to talk through what is happening. Conversations often look at patterns of thought and behaviour, and at personal history that can shape current reactions. Practical techniques from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy are sometimes used alongside deeper exploration of emotional themes from psychodynamic work.

Anne-Marie helps people address a wide range of related issues, such as attachment and abandonment worries, body image, caregiver strain, chronic pain or illness, communication and control problems, and feelings of isolation. She also works with matters around life purpose, midlife change, guilt and forgiveness, and challenges linked to military service.

Her style is supportive and empowering, aiming to help people make steady progress. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions based on the therapist's availability.

How CBT and Psychodynamic Ideas Help Online

Anne-Marie uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns. CBT often involves practical exercises, simple experiments and work between sessions to reduce worry and improve day-to-day coping.

She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at how early relationships and past experiences shape current feelings and reactions. This work is more about noticing long-standing patterns and gaining a better sense of why certain responses occur, which can help with things like attachment worries or repeated relationship difficulties.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process and will be decided together. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then try methods that fit the person's needs. Work is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and reducing travel time, which can make it easier to keep regular appointments. Online options can also support shorter check-ins when needed or allow sessions without being on camera if that helps concentration. Confirm the specific session formats available with the service before booking so arrangements match everyday life.
