About Hannah

Hannah Dickinson is a counsellor who uses trauma-focused and client-centred ways of working. She aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable. Hannah writes plans with each person to fit their needs and goals.

She has a BACP accreditation, which is shown as BACP in her details, and around ten years of experience in the field. That experience includes supporting people with stress, anxiety, depression and bipolar difficulties.

Background and approach

She also helps those coping with trauma and abuse and people dealing with addictions. Hannah works with a wide range of concerns. These include self-esteem, relationship and intimacy issues, sleeping and eating problems, and difficulties linked to parenting and family life.

She also supports people facing career changes, midlife questions and struggles with life purpose. Additional focuses include ADHD, autism and Asperger syndrome and problems such as hoarding and control issues. Her approach is practical and person-focused.

In sessions she draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at repeating patterns and client-centred methods to follow what matters most to the person. Trauma-focused elements are used when past harm affects day-to-day life. Hannah aims to offer a respectful, sensitive and compassionate space.

She works alongside each person to set achievable steps and coping strategies. The emphasis is on steady progress and on building skills that help outside sessions.

Approaches that suit online counselling

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and following what matters most to the person. It aims to build understanding and practical steps by reflecting back what the client says and helping them set goals. Psychodynamic therapy looks at patterns from earlier relationships and life events that keep repeating now. It can help people see why they react in certain ways and try different responses. Trauma-focused therapy addresses the effects of past harm and helps reduce its hold on everyday life through careful, paced work.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and suggest routes to try. Decisions are collaborative so the plan can change as progress is made or priorities shift.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls work well when face-to-face connection helps, while phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins, ongoing coaching-style contact or people who prefer written conversation. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, family and travel.
