About Anna-Lena
Counsellor Anna-Lena Dube is a BACP member with four years of practice experience in the United Kingdom. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, low self-esteem, depression and coping with life changes. Sessions are offered in English and German and international clients are accepted.
Anna-Lena describes an integrative way of working. She draws on person-centred ideas to focus on what matters to the client. She also uses psychodynamic perspectives to look at repeated patterns, and solution-focused elements to identify practical next steps.
She includes conversations about lifestyle where relevant. That can mean discussing nature, routines or nutrition when clients want to link daily habits with mood and energy. This is part of regular sessions rather than a separate programme.
Typical work covers relationship difficulties, communication problems and issues around attachment and abandonment. She also supports people dealing with adoption and foster care history, body image, caregiver stress, codependency, separation and domestic violence concerns.
Sessions aim to help people identify clearer choices and manage day-to-day coping. Anna-Lena invites clients to look at patterns and try different small changes. Practical suggestions and reflective discussion are combined in the weekly work.
How therapeutic approaches inform online counselling
Anna-Lena works integratively. Person-centred work focuses on listening and following what the client wants to talk about. It helps when someone needs space to clarify feelings and priorities.Psychodynamic ideas look at repeated patterns and earlier relationships that affect current behaviour. This can help with attachment issues, relationship difficulties and longstanding patterns. Solution-focused steps concentrate on small, practical changes to try between sessions and aim to build forward momentum.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, and then agree which ideas to use. That decision is collaborative and may change as the work continues.
The original profile does not list session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins where needed. Some people find video helpful for face-to-face discussion, while others prefer audio for less screen time. Discuss format and scheduling with the therapist when arranging the first appointment.
