About me
Life can sometimes feel overwhelming. You may be struggling with anxiety, finding relationships difficult, feeling overwhelmed by the challenges that can come with ADHD, or simply carrying more than you can manage on your own.
Whatever has brought you here, you don’t have to have all the answers before starting counselling. Sometimes having the space to talk openly, without judgement or pressure, can be the first step towards understanding yourself more deeply and finding a way forward.
Hello, I’m Hayley, a fully qualified Integrative Counsellor and member of both the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS) and the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
I offer a warm, supportive and confidential space where you can feel heard, understood and accepted as you are. I don’t believe there is a one-size-fits-all approach to counselling, so I tailor therapy to your individual needs, drawing on a range of therapeutic approaches to support you in a way that feels right for you.
I have experience supporting clients with anxiety, ADHD, self-esteem, relationship difficulties, stress, loss and life transitions. Together, we can explore what’s happening for you, make sense of difficult thoughts and feelings, and work towards meaningful and lasting change.
Sessions are available online, in a bright and welcoming counselling room in Paignton, or through walk-and-talk therapy on private land near Newton Abbot. Some people find it easier to talk while walking side by side, and being outdoors can offer a sense of calm, space and perspective that supports the therapeutic process.
Finding the right counsellor is important. If you’re wondering whether counselling could help, you’re welcome to get in touch. I understand that reaching out can feel daunting, and I’ll do my best to help you feel comfortable from our very first conversation.
