Welcome to
Therapy On The Wall
Anne Heaton-Armstrong, MA, MBACP
I am an experienced Clinical Mental Health Counsellor and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, providing sessions in English and Spanish.
While I tailor my approach to each individual's unique circumstances, I practice from a relational, psychodynamic, narrative and existential basis. Through insight-driven talking therapy, we process past traumas, notice recurring patterns, explore significant relationships and address issues of grief and loss. Insight gained in therapy kickstarts the healing process allowing us to rebuild those aspects of our lives and selves that feel stuck. Together, we build resilience, learn coping skills and take control to bring about the changes you want to see in your life.
Areas of Expertise
Counselling, Psychotherapy, Post Traumatic Stress, Mental Health Counselling, Crisis Intervention.
My background includes several stints living abroad, a deep understanding of hispanic and Spanish-speaking cultures and a previous career working in high-pressured corporate environments. I cover various practice areas including grief and loss (extending to disenfranchised, ambiguous and anticipatory losses), trauma and PTSD, phobias, anxiety, relationship issues, identity issues, cultural adaptation, self-esteem, negative behaviours, substance use, anger management, emotional regulation, parenting support and more.
In addition, I work with clients looking for support adjusting to life’s changes and transitions such as moving into adulthood, entering parenthood, divorce, retirement etc. I also help those looking for support with work related issues such as assertiveness, effective communication, career changes, boundary setting, impostor syndrome, stress management and burnout.
I practice from a strength-based perspective and my goal is to help you gain insight that promotes healing and helps you to become unstuck so that you can forge a path ahead. Together, we cultivate a sense of agency and empowerment to create the changes you wish to see in your life. Founded on the principles of choice, responsibility and authenticity, I use a combination of insight-driven talking therapy and a range of practical techniques to build resilience, set goals and track your progress. Clients range from pre-teens to young adults, older adults and seniors.
