About Hayley
Hayley works in a sensitive and empathetic way. She listens first, then helps people name patterns that cause stress or anger. Conversations tend to be honest and down-to-earth, with practical steps offered alongside reflective listening.
Her training includes cognitive behavioural therapy, client-centred approaches, relationship and family work, psychodynamic ideas, and Internal Family Systems. Hayley uses these approaches flexibly, matching methods to what each person finds helpful rather than following a single formula.
She has experience across a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, addictions, eating and sleeping problems, and anger. Hayley also supports people dealing with relationship issues, parenting strain, body image and workplace difficulties.
Sessions are offered in English and are based in the United Kingdom. She invites people to bring their real-life questions to sessions and aims to create a practical plan so progress can be tried between meetings. Hayley describes her role as supportive and empowering, helping people build on what already works for them.

How therapy approaches translate to online counselling
Attachment-based work looks at how past relationships shape current feelings and reactions, helping people notice patterns in trust, closeness and anger. Client-centred work focuses on the person in front of the counsellor, using careful listening and empathy to help people make their own choices. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) breaks down worries into clear parts - thoughts, feelings and actions - and uses practical experiments to test different coping strategies.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Hayley takes a collaborative view and will talk through options with clients, adjusting techniques to fit each person's needs, goals and preferences rather than insisting on one method up front.
If you are considering online therapy, check the session formats available before you book because the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so people can use a break at work for a session. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt these approaches effectively online, helping clients try new ways of responding to anger, relationship strain or anxiety in between meetings.
