About Hanna
Hanna Seely is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief, low self-esteem and life transitions. She also works with concerns linked to parenting, intimacy, anger, career pressure, compassion fatigue and ADHD, and with LGBTQ clients. Hanna uses a down-to-earth approach and aims to make first steps feel manageable.
She trained as an integrative counsellor and holds NCPS as her listed credential.
Background and approach
Hanna brings three years of professional experience and almost a decade working in the education sector. That background shapes how she notices developmental themes and difficulties in everyday life. Sessions are tailored to each person.
Hanna draws on client-centred methods to focus on what matters most to the client, cognitive behavioural techniques to address unhelpful thinking and behaviour, and psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns from the past that repeat today. She explains interventions plainly and checks in about what is helpful. Her style is warm, respectful and practical.
Hanna aims to build a safe space to talk honestly, test out small changes, and develop clearer ways to cope. She encourages pacing the work to match each person’s energy and goals. If you are thinking about starting, she asks people to reflect on what they want from counselling and to be open about practical needs.
Hanna helps clients set small, realistic goals and reviews progress together as therapy continues.

How Hanna's approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy places the client's experience at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what she hears and helps the person decide which issues to tackle first; this suits people who want a supportive, listening space.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to change patterns that keep someone stuck, which can help with anxiety, low mood and unhelpful coping habits.
Psychodynamic Therapy pays attention to repeating patterns and early relationships. It can help people understand why certain reactions keep returning and open up new choices in relationships and behaviour.
Finding the right approach is a joint process. Hanna will talk with clients about their goals, try methods that seem likely to help, and adjust the way they work together based on what feels useful. This collaborative stance helps shape a plan that matches needs and preferences.
Confirm the available session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it simpler to continue regular sessions during life changes, while the therapist and client focus on practical steps and day-to-day coping.
