Anna Greenslade

Hello! I'm Anna, a CBT Therapist specialised in children, pre-teens, adolescents and young adults; ages 5-25. I treat various forms of anxiety (social anxiety, health anxiety, separation anxiety, phobias, excessive worry, panic attacks, perfectionism), depression, self-esteem, OCD and PTSD / trauma. I help with emotions such as stress, low mood and anger; and symptoms of self-harm, suicidal thoughts and intrusive thoughts. I have 10 years of experience across; school, college and university student wellbeing, in the NHS (CAMHS), inpatient psychiatric care, SEND support, and  mental health therapy organisations. My specialist interests lie within the teenager population, social anxiety and OCD.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is the gold standard treatment in psychotherapy for depression and anxiety. I feel strongly about delivering scientifically-proven techniques. I then place emphasis on adapting to age, maturity and differences, e.g. adapting CBT for neurodevelopmental differences such as Autism / ASD and ADHD / ADD. 

Mental health is the foundation of daily functioning, so I provide a safe space for you to explore your inner world and empower you with coping skills and resilience to become your own therapist. I have a down-to-earth approach; understanding that therapy can be daunting, so it's my priority to connect with a client on a human-to-human level.
