About Hanna

Hanna Seely is an NCPS counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She has a background working in the education sector for nearly a decade and brings that experience into her counselling practice. Hanna commonly supports adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low mood and relationship strain.

She also works with people coping with grief and loss, low self-esteem, difficulties with motivation, and parenting concerns. Her practice includes work on trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, and the effects of family of origin problems. Hanna lists a range of related focuses such as abandonment, attachment issues, and communication problems.

Hanna uses an integrative approach. That means she draws on Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Psychodynamic Therapy where these fit a person’s needs. Sessions involve talking through current problems, reflecting on patterns that keep those problems active, and trying practical steps to change unhelpful habits.

Her education work informs how she thinks about development and life stages. She aims to help people understand how past relationships and family dynamics affect everyday choices and feelings now. Hanna pays attention to how issues such as compassion fatigue, career stress and ADHD-related difficulties show up in daily life.

Practical matters are straight forward. Sessions are conducted in English. International clients are not accepted. People start by completing a short matching questionnaire and booking a first appointment through the online booking flow.

How sessions work

How Hanna applies different approaches in online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person in front of the counsellor. It emphasises listening, acceptance and helping people reflect on what they want to change. This approach can help with low self-esteem, decision-making and feeling heard.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses practical exercises to test unhelpful beliefs and build different habits. CBT often helps with anxiety, stress and low mood by teaching coping steps and short exercises.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Hanna will help the person identify which methods match their goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses.

Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy day and keeping contact when travel is difficult. Confirm the current session options before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Many people find online sessions make it easier to keep regular appointments and to bring immediate day-to-day problems into the conversation.
