Hannah Hasson , BACP

Hannah Hasson is a counsellor with five years' experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and relationship problems. She also supports people facing grief, addiction struggles, trauma and intimacy-related concerns. Hannah works with a range of other difficulties often linked to women's issues and life transitions.

She keeps the room straightforward and compassionate. Sessions are client-led and focused on what matters most to the person sitting opposite her. Hannah listens closely, helps unpack patterns, and suggests practical steps people can try between meetings.

Hannah trained in psychology with a Bachelor of Science from Queen's University Belfast and completed a Master of Science in Counselling and Therapeutic Communication at Ulster University. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP.

Her approach is integrative. She commonly draws on client-centred work, cognitive behavioural techniques, mindfulness and psychodynamic ideas. Trauma-focused methods are used when trauma or abuse is present and relevant to the work.

People can expect a calm, non-judgemental space where Hannah helps make sense of emotions and behaviours. She aims to support realistic changes that fit each person's life, whether the priority is coping strategies, exploring past patterns, or improving relationships.

Approaches that suit online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel understood and can explore their own solutions. It helps when someone wants a supportive space to talk things through and build self-trust.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers clear exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and improve emotional regulation. These practices pair well with other work to help people feel steadier day to day.

Finding the right mix is part of the process. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences and practical needs and then recommend which approaches to try. This is a collaborative process and the plan can change as work progresses.

Online sessions offer flexibility and can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls let the therapist and client meet face to face when needed, phone sessions use less bandwidth, live chat suits shorter check-ins and text messaging helps when someone prefers writing. These formats allow continuity of care across different circumstances and can support steady progress.
