About Hanna

BACP counsellor with seven years' experience working in the UK, Hanna Mallie focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression and addictions. She uses a mix of client-centred, cognitive behavioural, psychodynamic and solution-focused approaches to help people work through current problems and recurring patterns.

Hanna uses straightforward talking therapy alongside practical steps. Sessions aim to clarify what is causing distress, identify patterns that keep problems going, and test small changes to see what helps. She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at past experiences that shape present reactions.

Her background includes both clinical counselling and long experience providing emotional and practical support in mental health, homelessness, domestic abuse and family-related services. That combination informs a flexible way of working that considers everyday pressures as well as deeper issues.

In sessions she listens for what matters to the person in front of her, then works collaboratively to set realistic goals. Some people use cognitive behavioural techniques to manage symptoms and day-to-day coping, while others want to reflect on long-standing patterns and relationships.

Hanna works with a wide range of concerns including relationship and intimacy difficulties, grief, sleep problems, anger, career stress, compulsive behaviours, self-harm, and sexual assault and abuse. Sessions move at a pace chosen by the client, with practical tools offered alongside conversation and reflection.

How her approaches work in remote sessions

Hanna commonly combines client-centred work and cognitive behavioural therapy in remote appointments. Client-centred therapy focuses on the person's concerns and the relationship in the room, helping them talk through feelings and priorities. Cognitive behavioural therapy breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical techniques to reduce symptoms and test new ways of responding.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. She will talk with the client about goals, try out methods and adjust the plan based on what works. That process means sessions can shift between open-ended reflection and focused skill-building as needed.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as specific options are not listed here. Online sessions can help fit therapy into busy days by removing travel and making it easier to attend shorter check-ins or weekday appointments. They also let people use quieter surroundings, reduce time away from work, or avoid the need to be on camera if that is preferred. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt techniques to remote work so therapy remains practical and goal-focused.
