About me
Life can sometimes feel difficult to navigate. You might be dealing with anxiety, grief, trauma, illness, a major life change, or simply feeling stuck and unsure what comes next.
I’m Hannah, a Person-Centred Counsellor, offering a warm, genuine and non-judgemental space to talk about whatever is going on for you.
You don’t need to know where to start or have the right words. We can take things at your pace and work out where to begin together.
I have a particular interest in supporting people experiencing chronic pain, life-changing or life-limiting illness, new diagnoses, bereavement and trauma, alongside a range of other difficulties including anxiety, depression, stress, relationships, self-esteem, identity and life transitions.
I’m LGBTQ+ inclusive and neurodiversity-friendly, and I recognise that everyone experiences and communicates differently.
My role isn’t to tell you what to do or how you should feel. It’s to listen, help you explore what’s going on, and give you space to understand yourself and your experiences.
The sessions are yours.
If you’re considering counselling, get in touch for an initial conversation about what you’re looking for and whether we might be a good fit.
You don’t need to have it all figured out before you start.
Training, qualifications & experience
Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling
I hold a Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling, providing comprehensive training in therapeutic practice, counselling theory, ethical practice and working safely and effectively with clients experiencing a wide range of emotional and psychological difficulties.
My training is grounded in the Person-Centred approach, with an emphasis on building a genuine, trusting and non-judgemental therapeutic relationship. I continue to develop my knowledge and skills through ongoing professional development, ensuring my practice remains reflective, ethical and responsive to the individual needs of each client.
Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.

Additional information
Affordable counselling
I believe that financial circumstances shouldn’t always be a barrier to accessing support. I have a limited number of reduced-cost counselling spaces available for clients who may be experiencing financial difficulty.
If cost is something you’re worried about, please feel comfortable mentioning this when you get in touch. We can have an open conversation about what might be manageable for you.
