Counselling with Hannah
Do you find life overwhelming and feel misunderstood or dismissed? Are you looking for someone to listen without judgement? I offer a safe and confidential space, where you’re truly heard and believed. I work to help you see things in new ways and identify patterns or cycles in your life.
My emphasis is on authentic connection with you, with respect for your history, identity and values. In working collaboration we examine your past reflections, present experience and future aims.
While I specialise in neurodivergence, including autism, ADHD and AuDHD, I also have experience with domestic abuse from my work at Watford Women’s Centre. I have a diploma in counselling & psychotherapy, working with a humanistic approach. Humanistic therapy focuses on self-discovery, self-acceptance & personal growth. I’m a member of the British Association of Counsellors & Psychotherapists.
My background is in arts management and I’ve been the director of an arts company for over a decade, so I understand how the responsibility of balancing work and family can impact wellbeing. My personal loves are musical theatre, poetry old and new, non-fiction, podcasts, 80s movies, dog walking and reformer pilates.
Being neurodivergent, or raising neurodivergent children, can be lonely and isolating at times. From first-hand experience of chronic burnout, overwhelm and sensory overload, I’m familiar with how impossible it can feel to know where to turn or how to make changes, when things already feel too much. At these times counselling with a neuro-affirming therapist can be a game changer.
