About Anastasia

Anastasia Seale is a BACP counsellor who offers practical, person-focused therapy for people feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stress and relationship strain. She names panic disorder and panic attacks among the concerns she works with, and she speaks both English and Russian. Her approach aims to make difficult feelings easier to understand and manage.

She draws on several ways of working to match each person's needs. Sessions are shaped around what feels most helpful - talking through patterns, noticing how attachments affect relationships, and using practical steps to manage anxious thoughts and behaviours.

Anastasia has seven years of counselling experience in the United Kingdom and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She has supported people through grief, trauma and abuse, parenting struggles, self-harm and suicidal thoughts, and issues like chronic illness and caregiver stress.

In sessions she aims to treat people with respect and sensitivity. She will tailor sessions to a person’s specific situation and goals. That can mean focusing on the here-and-now, or looking at past patterns that keep repeating.

Asking for help can feel hard. Anastasia encourages a collaborative process where the client and counsellor work together to reduce anxiety, improve relationships and cope with life changes. If you want to begin, follow the site steps to match and schedule a first session.

How her approaches guide online work

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current connections and emotional responses; it can help with issues like abandonment, attachment concerns and relationship patterns. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on a respectful, non-judgemental space where the client leads the pace and topics; it helps people find their own solutions and feel heard. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to notice thinking patterns and change behaviours that keep anxiety and panic going.

Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss what feels most useful, try different ways of working, and adjust based on your goals and preferences. That means the plan can change as you progress.

If you are considering online therapy, please confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when that suits you. It can also let you choose quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera if that helps you engage. Registered professionals can adapt methods like CBT exercises, attachment-based conversations and client-centred listening to an online setting to focus on managing panic, improving relationships and coping with life changes.
