Therapy with Hayley
Counselling and Psychotherapy
Therapy for your heart and mind
​
As a person-centred therapist, I'll offer you a supportive space where you can bring whatever's on your mind and explore your thoughts, feelings and experiences at your pace. ​​I won't tell you how to feel, I'll accept you exactly as you are. I won't tell you what to think, I'll help you find clarity. I won't tell you what to do, I'll help you discover it for yourself.
​
Person-centred therapy is founded on the belief that therapy works when the
relationship itself is healing. The core qualities that I offer are unconditional acceptance, empathy and authenticity.
​
When you feel like I'm a real person, who really cares, not just someone 'doing my job' or telling you what you want to hear, you can build trust. When you feel accepted by me exactly as you as you are, you can develop self-acceptance. When you feel seen and understood by me, you can understand yourself better than you ever have.​

​Therapy that's tailored to your needs
​
I believe in the power of psychoeducation to empower people to understand why they might think or react in the way they do. It can help you develop self acceptance, gain insights into your experience and create change.
Sometimes you might also want practical tools, such as breathing practices, that can reduce your general anxiety and help you when life gets overwhelming. Or, like me, you might be a bookworm who loves reading other people's stories and self help books to give you some reassurance and insight.
I'm always happy to share wellbeing practices and insights in our sessions, if you want them.
Flexible online sessions
​
I offer one-to-one sessions online via Zoom. Online sessions enable you to have therapy in your own environment where you feel comfortable and fit sessions into your busy life.
​
I work in my home office, which is completely private and free from distractions.
​
​Therapy sessions are 50 minutes and can be weekly or bi-weekly for as long as you like.

​Fees
​​
I know how important it is to find the right therapist, and I offer a free 15 minute phone call so you can see how you feel with me.
After that, if you decide you'd like to start therapy with me, we can arrange our first session. Sessions are £50 for a 50 minute session. I also offer concessionary rates.
