Dr Anna Herrmann first began her training with a BSc in Psychology at Goldsmiths, University of London, graduating with Upper Second-Class Honours, before going on to complete a Doctorate in Counselling Psychology and Integrative Psychotherapy at Metanoia Institute/Middlesex University, obtaining UKCP accreditation as an Integrative Psychotherapist and HCPC accreditation as a Counselling Psychologist. Her path has taken her through NHS and non-statutory adult mental health services, where she has supported adults experiencing a wide range of difficulties, and into private practice as an integrative psychotherapist, which has shaped the way she now works with clients.
In the therapy room, Dr Herrmann brings a flexible, holistic approach, integrating Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Schema Therapy (ST), Mindfulness-Based Approaches (including MBSR), Humanistic, Existential, and Psychodynamic Therapy, with a particular focus on identity development and relational patterns, helping clients explore who they really are and what they truly want for themselves.
All clinicians at The Chelsea Psychology Clinic are trained to conduct comprehensive assessments, considering you as a whole person rather than a specific issue. They tailor treatment and integrate multiple therapeutic perspectives to create a plan that is both evidence-based and uniquely suited to you.
Dr Herrmann works with individuals facing a wide range of challenges, including depression, anxiety, stress, ADHD and ASD, OCD, and relationship difficulties. She has specialist experience in substance misuse/addictions, eating disorders, personality disorders, and developmental/attachment trauma. Whatever someone is struggling with, Dr Herrmann aims to offer support that recognises and respects their unique needs and experiences.
Alongside her therapy work, Dr Herrmann has experience as a mental health service manager and is involved in committee work for non-profit organisations, reflecting her interest in organisational wellbeing and employee development.
Dr Herrmann conducts assessments in both English and German.
