About Hanna
Counsellor Hanna Seely is registered with NCPS and has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, grief, self-esteem problems and life changes, and also lists work on LGBT issues, trauma and parenting concerns.
She previously spent nearly a decade working in the education sector. That background informs her interest in developmental issues and how people grow over time. She draws on several counselling traditions rather than one fixed method.
In sessions she uses client-centred ideas that focus on what the client brings to the room. She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to look at patterns of thinking and behaviour. Psychodynamic ideas are used to consider how past relationships and experiences can affect current feelings and choices.
Hanna describes her practice as integrative, so she combines elements of different approaches to address a person’s particular concerns. She aims to be practical in sessions, helping clients talk through what is troubling them and try out small changes between meetings.
She works in English and does not take international clients. Fees vary by location and sessions are arranged through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, readers are asked to use the See online counselling options button, complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first session.
How her approaches are used in online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what the client brings. The counsellor aims to follow the client’s concerns and help them make sense of their feelings and choices. This approach is useful for building understanding and testing small changes.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It involves noticing unhelpful thinking patterns and trying practical behaviour changes. CBT techniques are often used for problems such as anxiety, low mood and coping with stress.
Psychodynamic Therapy pays attention to how past relationships and experiences shape current patterns. It can help people spot recurring issues and understand deeper emotional responses.
Finding the right way to work is part of the early conversations. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what seems to help, and will work with the client to agree an approach that fits their needs.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Many people find remote sessions help fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and make it easier to attend short check-ins. Others prefer longer meetings to explore material in depth. The practical aim is to make sessions fit everyday life while focusing on the issues the client wants to address.
