About Anastasia

Anastasia Seale is a UK counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has seven years of clinical experience and works with adults who are facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family issues, grief, depression, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns, parenting and related strains.

Anastasia uses an integrative way of working that draws on several approaches. She combines attachment-based ideas, client-centred listening, cognitive-behavioural techniques and psychodynamic thinking to suit each person's needs. Sessions aim to look at current problems and also patterns that may come from earlier life experiences.

In practice she talks through relationship and family conflicts, attachment difficulties, and trauma responses. She also supports people coping with loss, parenting stresses, self-esteem struggles, anger and the pressure of life transitions. Anastasia also addresses concerns such as abandonment, body image, communication problems, chronic illness and blended family issues.

Sessions are delivered in English and Russian. Anastasia works with adults across a range of issues and asks people to choose their preferred way to begin by using the online matching process. The first step is completing a short questionnaire and booking an initial session.

She registers with BACP, which is the credential listed. International clients are not currently accepted. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How Anastasia's approaches translate to online counselling

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns shape current feelings and ways of connecting. Online sessions using these ideas often focus on identifying repeated interactions and making small changes to feel more secure in relationships.

Client-centred counselling prioritises listening and the client's perspective. In online meetings this means the counsellor reflects what is said, supports the client's own problem-solving, and follows the client's lead on topics and pace.

Cognitive behavioural techniques focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments. Online sessions can include brief skills practice, thought records or planning small behavioural steps between meetings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with each person about goals, preferences and day-to-day needs, and together they will decide which methods to use. This is a collaborative process and adjustments can be made as things evolve.

The original profile does not specify which session formats are used. Please confirm the available online formats before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around study or work, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so meetings slot into a busy week more easily.
