Dr Anna Day

Clinical Psychologist and EMDR Therapist based online and in Ponteland, Northumberland

"Trauma is a fact of life. It does not, however, have to be a life sentence."

Peter A. Levine

Hi, I'm Anna, HCPC Registered Clinical Psychologist and EMDR Therapist

Welcome to my website. It's lovely to have you here.

I offer online therapy sessions to adults and teens across the UK, or face to face therapy sessions in South Northumberland.

I chose the rowan tree to represent my practice because it symbolises healing, growth and protection, things I hold close to my heart as a therapist.

Professionally, I have over twenty years experience of supporting people with their mental health, helping them to live happier and more fulfilled lives.

How I Work

I pride myself on my warm and collaborative approach, providing an emotionally safe space to best meet your mental health needs. I work with most presentations, including depression, anxiety, trauma, attachment difficulties, low self-esteem, grief, burn-out, adjustment to physical health difficulties and menopause. I have specialist experience of supporting people with chronic illness. On top of my doctoral level training, I have extra training in EMDR, Compassion Focused Therapy, Mindfulness and specialist trauma support.

EMDR Therapy

Using a process known as bilateral stimulation, I will support you to reprocess difficult memories and triggers so that you can break free from your past.

I would recommend Anna to anyone wanting to improve their mental health. Working with her has helped me to move on with my life.

EMDR client

Anna is a great therapist. She immediately made me feel safe and cared for, and when we'd finished therapy, it felt like a huge weight had lifted.

EMDR client

Dr Day is such a good listener. I feel so much better after working with her, and I'm finally free from that critical voice inside my head.
