About Hannah

Hannah Dickinson is a counsellor with ten years of front-line experience in the United Kingdom. She works in a warm, respectful way and helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression and mood difficulties such as bipolar. Hannah also supports people coping with trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, and a wide range of life transitions.

Her background includes a BACP registration, which means she works within the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy framework. Hannah tailors sessions to each person, so conversations and goals match what the client actually wants to change. She aims for clear, practical steps alongside deeper discussion when that is helpful.

In sessions she draws on client-centred ideas to focus on the person's experience. She also uses psychodynamic thinking to look at patterns that repeat over time. Trauma-focused methods are used when past events are affecting daily life and wellbeing.

Hannah has experience helping people with sleep and eating concerns, addictions, ADHD and issues around self-esteem and body image. She also supports those facing parenting strain, career decisions and midlife transitions. Her approach tries to balance immediate coping skills with understanding longer-standing patterns.

She offers help in English and accepts international clients. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to the listed process. Hannah encourages straightforward conversation about goals and what feels most useful in therapy.

How Hannah's approaches translate to online counselling

Client-centred therapy places your experience at the centre of the work. It involves listening closely, reflecting what matters to you, and helping you set goals that feel realistic. This approach is useful for stress, self-esteem and everyday life changes where practical steps help.

Psychodynamic work looks at patterns and past influences that repeat in current life. It can help when you notice the same kinds of relationship struggles or emotional responses appearing over time. Trauma-focused methods concentrate on reducing the ongoing impact of past events and teaching specific ways to manage triggers and distress.

Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the process. Hannah will work together with you to decide what fits your situation and goals. That decision is revisited as therapy continues so the work stays relevant and practical.

If you are thinking about online therapy, check the available session options before booking as the biography does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Some clients prefer online meetings for convenience or because they can join from different locations; others favour longer sessions for deeper work. Confirm the current arrangements to choose what suits you best.

Before you get in touch

Therapists listed here offer talking therapy online. A profile is not a diagnosis of you or of anyone in your life, and no therapist can promise how a relationship will turn out.

If you are in danger, or someone is hurting or threatening you, contact emergency services or a domestic-abuse helpline. The numbers are at the foot of this page.
