About Anastasia
Anastasia Seale is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with seven years of practice. She works with adults and young people on issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, grief, trauma and parenting matters. She also supports people dealing with self-harm and suicidal thoughts.
Anastasia uses a mix of approaches to suit the person in front of her. She draws on attachment-based thinking to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. She also uses client-centred ways of working to keep sessions focused on what matters to each person.
Cognitive behavioural ideas are used to notice and shift unhelpful thinking and behaviour. Psychodynamic perspectives can help uncover repeated themes linked to past experiences. These approaches are combined to address problems such as abandonment, attachment issues and communication difficulties.
She has experience with a range of additional concerns including chronic illness, caregiving stress, body image, blended family issues and dissociation. Anastasia also works with those coping with divorce, separation and life changes that leave people feeling stuck or overwhelmed.
Sessions are conducted in English and Russian. To start, prospective clients are asked to use the online matching process and schedule a first meeting. Fees vary by location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.
How her approaches translate to online counselling
Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. In short sessions she helps people spot recurring relationship reactions and how those patterns show up now, which can be useful for struggles with intimacy, abandonment or family conflict. Client-centred therapy keeps the conversation focused on the person’s priorities. The counsellor listens without steering and helps the client name what matters most, which often helps with low self-esteem, grief or parenting stress. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Anastasia will discuss how different methods might fit the client's goals and preferences, and make decisions collaboratively as the work progresses. Practical benefits of online counselling include fitting sessions into a busy week and avoiding travel time. If you need to check in during a short break or prefer not to travel, online meetings can make that possible. Confirm the exact session options available before booking, as formats are set by the counsellor's current practice and may change.Areas of expertise
