About Anastasia
Anastasia Seale is a UK counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has seven years' experience and works with adults on a range of everyday and complex difficulties. Key concerns she addresses include anxiety, depression, relationship and family problems, trauma and grief.
She uses a mix of practical talking therapies to help people make sense of painful events and change difficult patterns. Sessions focus on thinking about how early attachments shape current relationships, noticing unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, and talking through emotional responses that feel overwhelming.
Anastasia has particular experience with attachment issues, intergenerational trauma, abuse, and parenting concerns. She also supports people dealing with loss, including infant loss, and with difficult feelings such as anger, shame or low self-esteem. She lists blended family issues among her areas of focus and can help people navigating stepfamily and blended household tensions.
Her way of working is client-centred and conversational. She listens to what matters to each person, and then uses ideas from cognitive behavioural and psychodynamic approaches where helpful. Sessions aim to be practical and clear, with time spent on noticing patterns and trying small changes between meetings.
She offers therapy in English and Russian from the United Kingdom. To begin clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.
How her approaches work in online sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current connections. It helps people understand loyalty conflicts, attachment reactions and patterns that come up in blended households. Client-Centred Therapy keeps the focus on the person's experience and pace; the counsellor listens and supports the person to decide which issues to tackle first. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small changes in behaviour to reduce anxiety and improve routine and parenting responses.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist discusses goals and preferences with each person and agrees which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and can change as issues shift or progress is made.
Confirm the session formats available before booking, as they are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by saving travel time, allowing shorter check-ins at work breaks, or offering options that do not require video. Talk with the therapist about what will fit your daily routine and needs so sessions can be arranged in a way that works for you.
