About Hanna

Hanna Mallie is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with seven years of therapeutic experience and BACP registration. She draws on a range of approaches to support people facing stress, anxiety, sleep difficulties and other life challenges. Hanna aims to create an approachable space where people can begin to talk about what feels overwhelming.

She uses a client-centred stance that emphasises listening and collaboration. That means sessions focus on what matters to the person in front of her and move at a pace they can tolerate. Hanna also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour to build practical coping steps.

In addition she brings psychodynamic ideas to help people notice repeated patterns that affect mood, relationships and self-worth. Solution-Focused Therapy is part of her toolkit for people who want short-term, goal-oriented work to make clear changes. These methods are chosen to fit the individual rather than being imposed.

Hanna has practical experience from many years working in mental health, homelessness and domestic abuse services alongside her counselling work. That background informs a down-to-earth, respectful approach to difficult topics like trauma, self-harm and addiction.

People can expect a calm, non-judgemental environment where thoughts and feelings are explored. Hanna encourages small, manageable steps and aims to help people reconnect with their own inner resources as they work towards better sleep, improved mood and more stable daily routines.

How Hanna’s approaches translate to online therapy

Hanna commonly uses client-centred work and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy online. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and following the person's agenda, which helps people feel heard and understood even when they are not in the same room. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy breaks issues into thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical exercises that translate well to remote sessions, useful for managing anxiety, sleep problems and mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Hanna will discuss goals and preferences and suggest ways of working that suit the individual. Together they decide whether to focus on short-term solutions, pattern awareness or a mix of methods to meet the client's aims.

Session formats are not specified here, so confirm the available online options before booking. Many people find remote work helps fit therapy around daily life, for example by saving travel time, enabling shorter check-ins during a lunch break, or letting someone use audio-only conversations when video is difficult. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors, can adapt exercises and homework to make online sessions practical and directly relevant to everyday routines.
