Person Centred Counselling in Cornwall
Sometimes life is hard. Sometimes we just need time to stop and think, to work out how we got here and how we might be able to move forward. Sometimes we need someone to talk to, someone who isn't a friend or a family member. Counselling might just be the first step.
Welcome to Anna Dickson Counselling
As a person - centred counsellor my hope is to provide you with a safe and confidential space where you have time to reflect on your thoughts and feelings and begin to process and heal; a space where you feel heard and accepted without any judgement. I am there for you; to listen, to try to understand what life is like for you and to work through, together, the challenges you are facing. Whether you are struggling emotionally, living with a mental health condition, dealing with difficult life experiences or wanting to build better habits, having someone to talk to can sometimes be the first step. I believe that given the right conditions we are all able to unpick ourselves and our lives and then put them back together again in a way that allows us to begin to live life the way we would like to, as our true selves.
I am a person centred therapist who integrates other therapeutic approaches depending on what feels right for you e.g. mindfulness, narrative therapy, art and psychoeducation. I follow your lead in the sessions and welcome with care and compassion whatever it is you would like to bring to each session.
I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. I abide by the BACP Ethical Framework and have regular supervision. I am fully insured and have an Enhanced DBS
“Working with Anna has been an incredibly positive experience as I navigate life with borderline personality disorder. In the past, I’ve struggled to find a counsellor I felt truly comfortable with, or someone I could connect with enough to stay engaged in the therapeutic process. Anna’s approach has been exactly what I needed, compassionate, professional, and genuinely supportive. Her guidance has helped me manage my challenges in a much safer and more constructive way, and I’m truly grateful for the difference she’s made in my journey."

“Just thought I’d drop you a line thanking you for your expertise, patience and support which you gave in my time of need. There is always trepidation when folk (especially men) are finding things tough and seem to be lost with problems that cannot be resolved as they are invisible and hard to describe.
Your help, care and guidance were really needed at my toughest times and I thank you for not judging just for fighting in my corner. Prising open other’s mental issues must be taxing but if you don’t look at it as a burden then it makes your clients a little more calm and introspective.
Thank you again for our sessions, and though these things may never be cured and the past changed , if the present can be managed, it is indeed a blessing.”
