About Eirini

Eirini Anane-Crane is a counsellor registered with the BACP and has worked in the field for 10 years. She practises in the United Kingdom and supports people with concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, self-esteem and coping with life changes.

She uses a person-centred core in her work and combines that with cognitive behavioural ideas and mindfulness. Sessions focus on understanding what matters to the client and on practical ways to manage unhelpful thoughts and intense emotions. She also pays attention to attachment patterns and how past relationships shape how people feel about themselves now.

Her background includes work in crisis services, helplines and face-to-face counselling, and she has experience with perinatal mental health, pregnancy loss support, and culturally appropriate practice for Black, Asian and minority ethnic clients. She has also worked in the criminal justice system supporting people on probation.

Eirini provides clinical supervision and development coaching for volunteers, and she teaches counselling and psychology. That experience feeds back into her day-to-day practice and how she explains ideas in simple terms.

People meet straightforward explanations and practical steps in sessions. The initial focus is on what the client wants to change and which small, workable steps might make things feel less overwhelming. Language options include English and Greek, and she accepts international clients.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy means the focus is on the client's experience and priorities, with the counsellor listening and reflecting to help clarify what matters most. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and uses practical exercises to test and change unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness Therapy introduces simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness.

Finding the right mix of approaches is collaborative. She will work with each person to decide whether more person-centred listening, CBT techniques or mindfulness practice will better suit their goals. That choice can change as work progresses and is revisited together.

Practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy into a busy week and avoiding travel time. Online work can make it easier to schedule short check-ins on a lunch break or evenings, and it allows people in different places to connect with the same counsellor. The biography does not list specific session formats here, so please confirm current session options before booking to make sure they fit your needs.
