About me
Hi, I’m Hannah.
You might be feeling exhausted from years of masking, wondering who you are beneath the coping strategies you’ve had to use. Perhaps you’ve recently received a late ADHD or autism diagnosis and are trying to make sense of your identity. Or maybe you’re struggling with anxiety, relationship difficulties, or the impact of painful experiences such as emotional abuse or family estrangement.
Whatever has brought you here, I offer a safe, supportive space to explore your thoughts and feelings at your own pace.
I am an integrative therapist, working both online UK wide and in-person based in Dursley, Gloucestershire, which gives you the flexibility to choose what feels most comfortable. My approach is rooted in compassion and non-judgment, offering you the chance to be heard and understood.
As a neurodivergent therapist, I know how isolating and overwhelming it can feel to navigate life differently. My lived experience, combined with professional training, enables me to support those with ADHD and autism in a way that feels authentic and tailored.
I have a special interest in supporting adults with a late diagnosis of ADHD or autism. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling lost after years of masking or struggling with self-identity. In our work together, I help you safely begin unmasking, cultivate self-acceptance, and reconnect with your true self.
Together, we might explore ways to:
- Improve focus, motivation, and organisation
- Manage emotional overwhelm and regulate feelings
- Rebuild self-esteem and confidence
- Develop communication strategies
- that reduce misunderstandings
- Discover practical tools that fit your unique needs
Alongside my neurodivergence work, I also specialise in relationship challenges. Miscommunication, emotional regulation, and differing needs can place strain on partnerships, particularly where one or both partners are neurodivergent. I help clients find healthier ways to express themselves, understand each other, and strengthen their connection.
I also bring additional training and experience in emotional abuse, narcissistic abuse, and family estrangement. These experiences can deeply affect trust and self-worth, and I provide a compassionate space to process, heal, and begin to rebuild.
Therapy with me isn’t about “fixing” you. It’s about creating a safe, reflective space where you can feel valued, supported, and empowered to grow in the ways that feel right for you.
If you’d like to explore whether we might work well together, I warmly invite you to reach out for an initial conversation.
Sometimes the first step is simply reaching out.

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.
