About Anthony
Anthony Welsh offers calm, straightforward support for people feeling overwhelmed or stuck. He focuses on helping individuals regain a sense of control over mood, stress and everyday problems. His manner is warm and non-judgemental, and he aims to listen carefully before suggesting ways forward.
He commonly helps with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and the strain of long-term illness. He also works with concerns such as grief, addictions, parenting stress, sleep difficulties and career-related worries.
Background and approach
Anthony draws on a mix of approaches to match what each person needs in the moment. Anthony trained at the University of Essex and holds a BA (Hons) in Humanities and Philosophy from Birkbeck, University of London. He is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, written as BACP.
He has practised for five years and uses that experience to keep sessions practical and focused. In sessions he prefers a collaborative, conversational style. He often uses existential questions to help people clarify what matters to them.
He also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment ideas and narrative techniques to help people make different choices and change unhelpful patterns. Anthony is comfortable bringing creativity into sessions when it helps, whether that is through imagery, metaphors or practical exercises. He offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging for people in the United Kingdom.
If someone wants a straightforward, thoughtful counsellor who listens first, he can be a steady guide.

Online support
How therapy approaches translate online
Existential therapy asks simple but deep questions about meaning, values and how someone wants to live. Online sessions can use conversation and reflective exercises to help someone clarify what matters and where change could begin.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without being driven by them and taking action that matches personal values. In remote sessions this often involves short exercises, behavioural goals and checking progress between meetings.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape connection and trust. Through discussion and guided reflection in online meetings, people can start to notice patterns and try new ways of relating to themselves and others.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and experiment together to see what fits each person's needs and preferences. This collaborative process means plans are adjusted as understanding grows.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions need less bandwidth, live chat works for shorter check-ins and text messaging can suit people who prefer writing. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or mobility needs.
