About Eirini

Eirini Anane-Crane is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with ten years' experience. She lists stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem and related concerns among her work areas and offers support in English and Greek.

She uses a person-centred approach at her core, listening to what each person brings and working from there. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is part of her practice when looking at patterns of thinking and behaviour. She also draws on mindfulness techniques to help people notice and manage difficult feelings in the moment.

Her background includes an MA in counselling and psychotherapy and roles in clinical leadership and crisis services. She has provided face-to-face counselling, helpline support and online work for individuals and groups, and has experience with perinatal issues, bereavement, past abuse and cultural concerns.

She has used play therapy with younger children under 15 and has worked in the criminal justice system offering counselling for people on probation. She also supervises clinical staff and volunteers and teaches counselling and psychology.

Eirini describes the client as the expert in their experience and treats the therapeutic relationship as central. Practical conversations about what helps and regular review of goals are part of her way of working. To begin, a short questionnaire and scheduling step are used to match each person before a first session.

How her approaches translate to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful relationship. Online sessions can follow the same principle by opening with the client’s priorities and checking in about what matters most that day.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. In online work this often includes setting small tasks, noting unhelpful thought patterns and reviewing progress between sessions.

Mindfulness Therapy involves practising present-moment awareness and simple exercises for stress and anxiety. These can be guided during a session and used between meetings to help manage moments of overwhelm.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative step. The therapist will work with the client to choose techniques that fit goals and preferences and will review what is working as therapy progresses.

Practical benefits of online counselling include easier fitting of sessions into a weekday or work break and the ability to use quieter surroundings or a short phone check-in if needed. The biography notes prior experience with online and helpline work, but current session formats should be confirmed before booking. Online work can make it simpler to access care from different locations and to continue regular meetings without long travel.
