About Anne Ryan-Thomas

Anne Ryan-Thomas holds the BACP credential (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and has 12 years of experience working as a qualified therapist. She combines clinical training with a deep interest in health-related issues and the interaction between physical wellbeing and emotional experience, drawing on 20 years of prior work as an NHS nurse to inform her practice.

She adapts her approach to suit each person's needs, drawing on person-centred methods, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and creative arts therapy when appropriate. Her work balances practical strategies and exploratory reflection so that techniques fit the individual rather than forcing a single model. Anne aims to offer a respectful, collaborative environment that supports people at different stages of life as they manage change, cope with stress, and pursue better emotional balance.
