Anthony Welsh, BACP

Anthony Welsh helps people reclaim a sense of control over their mental health through empathetic, nonjudgmental support. He creates a space where clients can explore anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, long-term illness, relationship and family challenges, and many other difficulties, offering practical guidance alongside emotional understanding.

Anthony brings a creative sensibility to his work and is comfortable incorporating imaginative or arts-informed ideas when they suit a client’s pace and preferences. He aims to listen deeply and respond with warmth, helping individuals identify small changes that can lead to clearer thinking and more manageable day-to-day coping.

Anthony is a BACP-registered counsellor - BACP refers to the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and trained in counselling at the University of Essex. He also holds a BA (Hons) in Humanities and Philosophy from Birkbeck, University of London. With five years of professional experience, he works with a broad range of issues and supports clients in finding approaches that fit their needs and goals.

Therapeutic approaches and online support tailored to you

Anthony uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them, and to clarify values that guide meaningful action. This approach can be helpful for anxiety, depression, stress, and situations where people feel stuck.

Attachment-Based Therapy is used to explore how early relationships shape current patterns in intimacy, trust, and communication. It can be especially relevant for those working on relationship difficulties, abandonment issues, adoption and foster care concerns, or attachment-related anxieties.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the collaborative process. Anthony works with clients to identify which methods feel most useful given their goals, preferences, and circumstances, and adapts his work as needs evolve.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support from home, and fit therapy into a busy life while working with a registered professional.
