Eirini Anane-Crane

Eirini Anane-Crane offers a person-centred approach rooted in practical therapies. She draws on a decade of experience to help people manage stress, anxiety, anger and relationship concerns. Her work aims to make difficult problems feel more manageable through steady, respectful conversation.

She trained to an MA level in counselling and psychotherapy and holds BACP accreditation. Over ten years she has worked across helplines, online and face-to-face settings and in clinical leadership roles. That background informs how she plans sessions and notices when a different angle might help.

In session she combines client-centred listening with elements of cognitive behavioural work and mindfulness practice. That mix supports people in spotting unhelpful thought patterns, learning calming techniques and testing small changes in everyday life. The therapist keeps the relationship central while tailoring methods to each person’s needs.

Her practice includes support for people experiencing trauma and past abuse, perinatal concerns, grief, low self-esteem and cultural or identity-related worries. She has experience offering early interventions for children under 15 through play-based methods and providing bespoke counselling in criminal justice contexts.

Eirini also supervises volunteers, coaches for development and lectures in counselling and psychology. She works in English and Greek and accepts international clients. To begin, prospective clients use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience at the heart of each session. The therapist listens carefully, reflects what she hears and helps clients decide the pace and direction of work. This approach is helpful for building trust and talking through difficult feelings.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. It often uses simple exercises and homework to try new ways of coping, which can be adapted for online work. This approach suits people who want practical tools for anxiety, depression or anger management.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches short attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase calm. These exercises are easily guided in conversation and repeated between sessions to build steady habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the process, and she works collaboratively to decide what fits best. Together they review goals, try different techniques and adjust the plan based on what feels helpful and achievable for the client.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the specific formats available before booking. The practical benefits of online work include easier scheduling around daily life, fewer travel demands and the chance to maintain continuity when circumstances change. Some people prefer shorter check-ins by audio when video would be difficult, while others use longer conversations with mindfulness practice and CBT tasks. The therapist will discuss what works for you and tailor sessions to your needs.
