About me and my therapy practice
Hi, I'm Hannah and I am a fully qualified integrative therapist. My training is based in person-centred practice, which means at the core of my practice is the theory that each person is the expert on themselves and has the potential, given the space and the tools, to move towards the person they want to be and the life they want to live.
I have experience and training in a number of different types of therapy, which means I can tailor our sessions to your needs and pull from different theories to use the most effective approach for the work we’re doing.
I have years of experience as a senior psychotherapist in the NHS and in other settings, allowing me to be a competent practitioner and a safe space for you.
I have a particular interest and expertise in working with people on their relationships with themselves and others: learning to become a safe space for themselves, inner-child work, improving self-worth and resilience, figuring out what leads people to the patterns they now find themselves in and how to change those patterns if they no longer serve. Part of this is looking at how we relate to others and what roles we’re playing in our relationships.
As a mixed-race woman who is part of the LGBTQ+ community, I bring my understanding of generational and cultural patterns surrounding these identities. I know what it’s like to be part of both the majority and the minority and how identity, sense of self, family dynamics and relationship with community can be affected by this.
My approach is rooted in empathy, inclusivity and a deep commitment to creating a safe, non-judgmental space for all people to explore their true selves. I welcome all people at all stages of personal-growth to come exactly as you are and receive support.
I am Íø±¬ÃÅ and IPTUK accredited.
Practice description
People reach out for therapy for many different reasons. You may be struggling with your mental health at the moment, or may be feeling stuck and need support finding shifts in your personal growth. Whether you are going through a particularly tough time, are feeling stuck, need help to process something or just find regular therapy helps you to make the most out of life, you are so welcome here.
In therapy together, we will make space and time to process your story; look at relationship patterns and internal dynamics, where they've come from and whether those patterns and dynamics are helping you now; explore anything keeping you stuck and look at ways to help you move past those barriers.
Because I work in a person-centred way, I will work with you to build our therapy sessions around your needs - whether that's space to feel or some more challenge.
My first session
I offer a free induction call, which will take around 20 minutes. This is an opportunity to introduce ourselves and for you to get a feel for whether working with me is the right fit for you.
In this call, I will invite you to tell me a little more about what’s brought you to therapy and what you hope to gain from the experience. I will give you an idea of what you can expect from therapy with me and, if we’re both happy to go ahead, we can arrange our first session.
