About Hanna
Counsellor and BACP member, Hanna Mallie has seven years' experience offering counselling in the United Kingdom. She works with common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and family issues, and problems with self-esteem. Sessions are in English and aimed at adults seeking practical help to manage difficult feelings and life events.
Hanna describes her practice as person-focused. She draws on client-centred ideas to listen to what matters most to each person. She also uses elements of cognitive behavioural therapy and psychodynamic work to look at patterns of thought and past experiences that affect current feelings.
Her background includes long-term work in mental health, homelessness and domestic abuse services, and that practical experience informs how she works in counselling. She aims to help people notice ways they cope and to try small changes that can reduce distress and improve day-to-day functioning.
Sessions involve talking through thoughts and feelings, identifying unhelpful patterns, and trying specific steps to manage symptoms such as anxiety, low mood or sleep problems. Hanna also offers solution-focused techniques to set short-term goals and monitor progress.
People who prefer a straightforward, conversational style and a mix of talking and practical strategies may find this approach helpful. Before booking, confirm current session options and practical details to make sure they suit your circumstances.
Approaches Hanna brings to online counselling
Hanna uses client-centred counselling to focus on what each person brings to the room. This approach means the counsellor listens carefully and follows the concerns you raise, helping you make sense of your experience and priorities.She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. CBT-style work can help with anxiety, low mood, sleep problems and some compulsive behaviours by teaching practical coping steps and ways to test unhelpful thoughts.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Hanna will discuss what feels most useful and adapt methods to fit goals, needs and preferences. This is a collaborative process where decisions about techniques are made together.
Session formats are not specified in the basic biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Many people find online counselling easier to fit into daily life, for example by avoiding travel, allowing shorter check-ins during a busy day, or removing the need to be on camera when that helps. Registered and accredited professionals often use these practical benefits to support regular contact and steady progress.
