Ann Moorhouse, an integrative psychotherapist, sitting in her welcoming indoor counselling space in Nottinghamshire.

About me

I have always been drawn to life stories. For over two decades, my purpose has been to sit alongside others as they navigate the complexities of life. To me, therapy isn’t just a career; it is a calling rooted in genuine curiosity, a desire to see clients flourish and a belief that everyone deserves a dedicated, professional space to unpack their world.

What it’s like to work together

Whether you are navigating relationship complexities, carrying a heavy weight of grief, or exhausted from trying to maintain a version of yourself that no longer fits the life you want to live, we will work together to unpack your thoughts and find your own route forward.

Clients often describe my style as a balance of professional knowledge and genuine warmth. I consciously focus on creating a therapeutic space that is:

  • Respectful & Non-judgmental: A place where you can speak about absolutely anything freely, safely and without a filter.

  • Comfortable & Genuine: I don’t sit in clinical silence. I bring an authentic, supportive and real energy to our sessions.

  • Insightful: Together, we work to connect the dots in your experiences, bringing you increased clarity and a deeper self-trust and the permission to make choices that are truly your own.

My Approach & Qualifications

Because we are all unique, I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to mental health. As an Integrative Psychotherapist, I draw on my extensive training including an MA in Counselling and a Professional Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling Practice to tailor our sessions to your exact needs.

Alongside my private practice, I have extensive specialised training and experience in bereavement and complex loss through my clinical work with Cruse Bereavement Support. This background allows me to safely guide clients through both traditional grief and the hidden, often unacknowledged pain of living losses, life transitions or disenfranchised grief.

For your peace of mind, I am a Registered Member of the BACP and an Accredited Registrant with the NCPS. I adhere to their ethical standards, ensuring our work together is safe, confidential, and held to the highest professional standards. I love learning and am committed to ongoing professional development to ensure my skills remain sharp and my practice continues to offer high-calibre support.

Beyond the Therapy Room

When I’m not working, I find my own sense of perspective by being outdoors in nature. I am a firm believer in celebrating the small, quiet moments, the things that naturally slow us down and ground us when life feels fast or overwhelming.
