About Haylee
Haylee Ford helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and parenting struggles. She supports those dealing with low self-esteem, relationship or intimacy concerns, addiction, grief, trauma and sleep or eating difficulties. Haylee also works with people managing career strain, compassion fatigue, ADHD and major life changes.
Haylee practices in a straightforward, down-to-earth way. She treats each person as the expert on their own life and focuses on what will help now.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to identify small, practical steps clients can use between meetings to feel steadier and more in control. Her approach draws on a mix of talking therapies and hypnotherapy. Cognitive tools are used to spot unhelpful thinking and try new responses.
Attachment ideas help uncover patterns in relationships, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports values-based choices when feelings are hard to change. Haylee holds BACP, which is the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and she has worked with people in the United Kingdom and internationally for more than 11 years.
That background informs a flexible style that adapts to each person’s concerns and pace. In sessions clients can expect calm listening, practical techniques and goal-focused conversations. The aim is to build coping skills, improve day-to-day functioning and support clearer decision making around parenting, work and relationships.

Therapeutic approaches and online support
Haylee uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy as part of her online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting trapped by them, then focus on actions that match their values. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour and offers practical tools to change unhelpful cycles and reduce anxiety or low mood.She also draws on Attachment-Based ideas to understand how early relationship patterns affect current connections. That approach can help people recognise recurring relationship responses and try new ways of relating that feel safer and more satisfying.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Haylee will discuss goals and preferences and try methods that best match those needs. Together the therapist and client review what works and adjust the approach over time so it fits day-to-day life.
Online sessions include video calls, phone appointments, live chat and text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions suit shorter check-ins and lower bandwidth, while messaging can work for quick updates or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and busy schedules.
