About My Anxiety Counselling Practice.
Supporting You to Overcome Stress and Overthinking.
Expert Online Therapy for Anxiety in Sudbury, Suffolk.
Hello, my name is Tessa, a therapist offering counselling for anxiety, overthinking, stress and burnout.
If you’re reading this, can I begin by offering you either comfort, encouragement, or both.
You are not alone!
We all experience challenges in life whether it’s mental health struggles, anxiety, stress, burnout, a life crisis, trauma, or a period of uncertainty. The only difference is the degree to which we suffer, and importantly, how we deal with it. I specialise in helping people overcome anxiety and depression, stress, burnout, overthinking, imposter syndrome, low confidence, feeling overwhelmed and everything that comes with these feelings.
As a counsellor practicing online in Sudbury, Suffolk, I can offer professional help with whatever anxiety, stress, or mental health challenges that have resulted in you getting to this point.
My professional training, clinical experience and personal life experience has put me in a perfect place to help you with what, at the moment may be leaving you feeling helpless, trapped in overthinking, burdened by anxiety, hopeless or even desperate.
Together we can empower you to skilfully address those issues that are currently diminishing or minimising your quality of life.
“Awareness is the greatest agent for change.” – Eckhart Tolle
How Online Anxiety Counselling
Can Help You
Therapy provides the space and professional guidance to help you regain clarity, confidence, and control over your life.
When anxiety takes hold, it can feel impossible to make decisions, focus on the present, or trust yourself to take the next step or move forward through the stress and uncertainty of life. You may feel overwhelmed by thoughts of the future, comparing yourself to others who seem to have everything figured out. You might experience physical symptoms like a racing heart, panic attacks, or sleepless nights that leave you feeling drained before the day even begins.
Therapy isn’t just about talking things through - it’s about making real changes that help you feel calmer, more capable, and more in control of your life. In our sessions, we will:
Identify what’s keeping you stuck
Understanding patterns of overthinking, avoidance, or perfectionism that fuel anxiety and how this relates to emotional turmoil.
Develop tools to cope with anxiety and depression
· Learning practical, evidence-based cognitive strategies to
manage unhelpful thought processes and the consequent overwhelming emotions and unhelpful feelings that follow.
Understand the mind-body connection
Recognising why anxiety triggers physical symptoms such as racing heart, panic attacks and breathlessness, or a churning feeling in your stomach, and how to regain control over them.
Create realistic, meaningful change
Making small but powerful shifts in your daily life that reduce stress and anxiety, bring relief and build confidence.
You don’t have to struggle through this alone.
Therapy provides structured support and practical strategies to help you stop feeling trapped by anxiety or depression, and start moving forward in a way that feels right for you.
What Working Together to Manage Anxiety and Depression Looks Like
My approach as to how we can work together would be discussed at our first meeting, but prior to that I offer a free telephone consultation.
During our initial sessions I will of course propose my recommendations and explain why I am recommending my suggestion, but it is together that we will establish what we agree will be the best approach for you.
For example, some clients prefer to simply talk and explore their thoughts and feelings with me, helping them clarify and crystallise their confusion and/or their moral/ethical dilemmas.
Some prefer to work on their unhelpful thought processes and the consequent unhelpful feelings that follow.
Some clients are interested in a mindfulness approach or a combined approach. All of this can be addressed at a pace that suits you.
Whether you’re based in Sudbury, Suffolk, Essex, Norfolk, East Anglia or elsewhere, our sessions will be conducted online, giving you the flexibility and support you need wherever you are.
A Supportive, Evidence-Based Approach to Therapy for Anxiety
I use an evidence-based approach to therapy, grounded in modern psychological methods that are proven to help with anxiety and low mood. My work is informed by current best practice and tailored to you, offering practical support for overthinking, worry, and emotional overwhelm - all through flexible online counselling sessions.
I have helped many clients who felt overwhelmed by anxiety, lost in overthinking, or weighed down by low mood and lack of motivation.
Through therapy, they’ve been able to:
- Stop feeling consumed by their thoughts and feelings
- Sleep better and feel more energised
- Regain confidence in their decisions
- Break free from persistent feelings of low mood and regain a sense of purpose
- Approach the future with more clarity and less fear
Therapy is an opportunity to pause, reflect, and make changes that will support you long after our work together ends.
If you feel ready to take the next step and would like me to help you achieve what I know you can, contact me to book your free introductory call.

I usually respond to all enquiries the same day, but always within 24 hours.
In our first session, I’ll ask you a few questions about where you’re at and what’s been weighing on your mind, so I can understand your situation and what you’re hoping to get out of therapy.
I may jot down some notes to help me remember some details. There’s no rush here - take your time with any answers. If it feels like too much for one session, we can always pick up where we left off next time.
I know starting therapy can feel daunting, and that’s completely normal - you’re definitely not alone in feeling this way.
My focus is on helping you feel comfortable and supported from the start.
It might help to jot down any thoughts or worries you’d like to bring up, and remember, there’s no “right” way to feel about this.
Maybe take a few deep breaths or a short walk beforehand if that helps you feel more at ease.
I’m here to support you, and we’ll go at a pace that feels right for you.
I am unable to provide support between sessions, which I understand may feel difficult at times, especially if you're feeling overwhelmed
Keeping our communication within scheduled sessions helps maintain a safe, focused space for us to work together effectively. This also gives you the opportunity to practice self-care and coping skills we discuss.
If you ever feel like you’d benefit from more frequent sessions or extra support, we can talk about options that will help you feel more supported.
This varies for everyone, but many clients start to feel a difference within the first few sessions, particularly once they begin to use tools and techniques we discuss.
Lasting change doesn’t happen overnight, but every step forward brings you a little closer to the life you want.
My approach blends practical ways to cope with your anxiety with a deep understanding of what’s causing you to suffer.
Traditional therapies often focus on “getting rid of” anxiety, and when this doesn’t happen it can leave you feeling like you’ve failed.
With my approach, you’ll develop a toolkit that can help you to cope with your feelings in real-life situations. You’ll also gain a clearer understanding of what it is you want from life, so you can figure out what your next steps are for moving closer towards this.
Many people feel this way when they first come to see me, especially when emotions are tangled or hard to pinpoint.
You don’t need to have it all figured out to start. I’m here to help you make sense of what’s going on, one step at a time, even if it feels hard to explain at first.
Together, we’ll work through things at your pace.
Therapy can feel different for everyone, but you may start noticing a sense of relief, or maybe you notice you’re able keep your breathing under control a bit easier when things feel too much.
It might be that you notice yourself more able to cope with difficult thoughts and feelings.
Perhaps you start feeling less tired as you’re getting to sleep a bit easier at night.
You might notice a shift in your mood, and are able to pause and take a step back rather than reacting to a difficult situation at work, for example.
These small changes you start to notice then often lead to bigger changes. You may start to feel more confident in your decision making, or feel more motivated to make changes in your life once you understand your next steps.
We’ll regularly check in to make sure we’re on track with your goals, and that you feel supported in a way that makes a real difference to your life.
