Widely recognised in Dubai, the UAE and globally as a leading Cross-Cultural Human Behaviour Expert, Anne brings over 16 years of professional experience working with individuals, couples, teens and families, as well as corporations, executives and senior leaders, all navigating complex personal and/or professional challenges.

Through 1:1 sessions or group programmes, Anne focuses on strengthening psychological, emotional, and behavioural  wellbeing, to help clients achieve clarity, confidence, and sustainable success

Professional Expertise & Approach

Much how a CEO oversees every department of an organisation, Anne Jackson operates as the CEO of the person, seeing how leadership pressure affects relationships, how family dynamics influence performance, how trauma impacts decision-making, and how human behaviour underpins wellbeing, success, and resilience. Anne’s approach is strategic, integrated, deeply human, and always focused on long-term outcomes rather than short-term fixes.

She brings more than 16 years of professional experience supporting individuals, couples, families, and executives/leaders in creating lasting transformation across every area of life. And with deep experience in diverse cultural dynamics, Anne also  helps clients navigate the unique complexities of multicultural landscapes, whether in culturally mixed marriages, family relationships, divorce or the workplace melting pot of global teams.

Anne achieves all this by combining advanced psychotherapy techniques with results-driven coaching to create lasting transformation. Her integrative method blends therapeutic depth with practical tools, helping clients move beyond the weight of the past to build a future filled with clarity and purpose.
