About Hazel
Hazel Edwards welcomes parents and adults who are feeling overwhelmed, worried or stuck. She offers calm, straightforward support for common struggles like stress, anxiety, low mood and parenting pressures. Hazel writes simply and listens closely to understand each person's situation and priorities.
Her style treats the client as the expert on their life. Hazel helps people spot their strengths and use them to make manageable changes. She focuses on practical steps and steady progress rather than quick fixes.
Background and approach
With six years of professional experience, Hazel has worked with people facing trauma and abuse, grief and relationship difficulties. She also supports those dealing with ADHD, eating concerns, anger and mood disorders. Parenting is one of the areas she pays close attention to when clients bring it up.
Hazel works from two core approaches. Client-Centred Therapy guides the pace and focus so the client leads the conversation. Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns from the past that still affect daily life.
Together these help uncover what matters and how to move forward. Sessions are offered in English and Hazel is based in the United Kingdom. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown as BACP.
Her aim is to support people with steady, compassionate counselling that fits their life and goals.

How Hazel's approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's own priorities and experience. The therapist follows the client's lead, listens closely and helps people name what matters and try small changes. This approach can help with stress, parenting pressures and low self-confidence.Psychodynamic Therapy looks at recurring patterns and past experiences that influence today's reactions. Brief, clear reflection on these patterns can help with relationship struggles, grief and long-standing mood issues. Hazel brings this perspective gently alongside client-led work.
Finding the right approach is part of the process and is worked out together. Hazel will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs, then adjust the balance between client-led listening and psychodynamic reflection. This collaborative process helps shape sessions that feel useful and realistic.
Online therapy lets people fit counselling into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth, live chat gives a quicker check-in, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options offer flexibility for different routines, quieter surroundings or shorter appointments while keeping the therapeutic work focused and continuous.
