About Hannah
Hannah Dickinson is a BACP-registered counsellor who focuses on clear, person-centred support. She offers calm, practical help for parents juggling stress, anxiety, mood conditions and the effects of past trauma. Conversations are straightforward and tailored to individual needs.
Hannah draws on client-centred work to build trust and to listen closely to what matters most. She also uses psychodynamic ideas to explore patterns that may lie beneath current struggles. For trauma-related issues she applies focused techniques aimed at reducing painful symptoms and restoring day-to-day functioning.
Background and approach
Her practice addresses a wide range of concerns that often overlap in parenting lives. These include managing sleep and eating difficulties, coping with bipolar or depression, substance concerns, ADHD, and anger. She also supports people dealing with relationship strain, intimacy worries, abandonment, and blended family challenges.
Hannah brings ten years of experience working in the United Kingdom. She aims to make sessions practical, with strategies you can try between meetings alongside deeper reflection when needed. She treats discussions about identity with sensitivity, including LGBT-related matters.
People who choose her can expect a collaborative approach. Hannah helps set achievable goals and adjusts the plan as progress is made. She encourages small changes that add up to steadier routines and clearer decision-making.

Approaches that guide online counselling and support
Hannah uses client-centred therapy to create a space where the person's perspective leads the work. This approach focuses on understanding your experience and helping you find solutions that feel right for you. Psychodynamic therapy is used to look at recurring patterns and early influences that may affect present behaviour and relationships. It can help make sense of emotions and choices that keep repeating. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Hannah will talk with you about your goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then adapt the style of sessions over time. The aim is to combine practical strategies with deeper reflection so progress fits your life. Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow visual connection and longer sessions, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or days when writing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around parenting, work and busy schedules while still getting consistent support from a registered or accredited professional.Questions people ask about Hannah
