Anna Rita Iaboni, BACP

Anna Rita Iaboni is a BACP counsellor who blends talking therapy with life coaching. She writes and speaks in both English and Italian. Her practice welcomes people wanting to address stress, anxiety, trauma, self‑esteem and life changes. Her work draws on attachment-based, client-centred and cognitive behavioural approaches among others. Sessions aim to be practical and grounded. She creates space for people to make small changes and build coping strategies that fit daily life. Anna Rita also pays attention to deeper themes such as meaning, identity and the spiritual side of experience. That transpersonal perspective can help when issues feel tied to life purpose, loss, or shifts in values. She combines this with straightforward tools for mood, sleep and addictive behaviour. She has five years of experience and uses that background to adapt each meeting to the person in front of her. Conversations are paced to suit the client and goals are set collaboratively rather than imposed. People come to work on a wide range of concerns including relationships, grief, parenting pressures, eating and body image, attention difficulties and compassion fatigue. Anna Rita aims to guide practical steps while also allowing deeper exploration when needed. To begin, the site’s Start Therapy button leads to a short matching questionnaire and scheduling options. Sessions are arranged according to the counsellor’s availability and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Anna Rita often draws on attachment-based work and client-centred therapy. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current ways of relating and can help with trust, intimacy and abandonment issues. Client-centred therapy focuses on the person’s experience in the room, offering empathy and reflection so people can find their own answers. She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which combines practical exercises with conversations to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, low mood, sleep and coping skills. Finding the right approach is part of the process. The counsellor will discuss options and choose what seems most helpful together with the client. Goals and preferences guide which methods are used, and the plan can change as work progresses. The practical benefits of working online should be confirmed before booking, as specific session formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make scheduling easier, reduce travel time and allow shorter or more frequent check-ins when that fits a person’s life. It can also let people choose quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera when they prefer a phone-style conversation. Ask about current session options when you arrange the first appointment.
