About Hazel

Hazel Baker is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief and trauma. She works with clients dealing with low self-esteem, relationship or family concerns, addictions and the ups and downs of mood. Hazel creates a calm, non-judgemental space to talk about what feels hard.

She has three years of experience in talking therapy and is registered with the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy). Hazel takes a straightforward, person-centred approach.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on what matters most to each person. Conversations look at patterns that get in the way, and practical ways to manage feelings day to day. Hazel uses Attachment-Based ideas to understand how early relationships affect current reactions and relationships.

People can expect an open, listening style where their story is taken seriously. Hazel aims to help people build self-understanding and try small, realistic changes between sessions. She also supports practical coping for panic, low mood, stress and workplace pressures.

Her practice addresses a wide range of concerns including parenting strain, bereavement, midlife questions, isolation, career stress and neurodiversity-related needs such as autism and Asperger Syndrome. Hazel also works with people facing issues around identity, guilt, abandonment and shame. Sessions can be held online or by phone and are arranged to fit individual circumstances.

Hazel works with people in the United Kingdom and accepts international clients for online therapy.

How Hazel's approaches work in online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early connections shape the way people relate now. Hazel uses this to spot recurring patterns in relationships and to help people try different ways of connecting and responding. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's own experience and pace, with the counsellor offering empathic listening and reflective feedback to help people find their own answers.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Hazel will talk with each person about goals, needs and preferences and adapt the work as things change. The aim is to find ways of working that feel comfortable and useful rather than forcing a single method.

Online sessions give practical flexibility. Video calls suit fuller conversations where visual cues help. Phone sessions can be a good shorter check-in or helpful when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for people who prefer writing or want more frequent, brief contact during the week. Together these formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping the therapeutic focus.
