About Hannah
Hannah Dickinson works from a person-centred approach that puts the client at the heart of each session. She draws on ten years of experience to help people facing stress, anxiety, depression and bipolar difficulties. Hannah also supports those dealing with trauma, addiction and questions around identity and relationships, including LGBT concerns and intimacy-related issues.
She adapts sessions to the needs of the individual. That means practical conversations about coping, clearer ways to think about relationships, and paced work through traumatic events when that feels right. Hannah integrates psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns from the past and how they affect life now.
Her practice is informed by trauma-focused methods for people whose past hurt keeps affecting daily life. These methods aim to reduce the grip of painful memories and improve day-to-day functioning. Hannah combines this with client-centred listening so people feel heard while they consider change.
Over a decade of work has included helping people with sleep and eating difficulties, parenting strain, career crossroads and midlife questions. She also supports clients confronting hoarding, infidelity, abandonment and other difficult relationship problems.
Hannah is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She works in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English. To begin, a short matching questionnaire helps connect people to her and then sessions are scheduled according to her availability.
How Hannah's approaches shape online work
Hannah uses client-centred therapy to place the person's goals and experience at the centre of sessions. This approach relies on deep listening, open questions and gentle reflection to help someone find their own answers and build confidence.She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at recurring life patterns and how past relationships influence current choices. This can help when someone wants to understand why certain reactions keep happening in work, relationships or money matters.
Trauma-focused methods are used when past events continue to affect day-to-day life. These methods are paced and practical, aimed at reducing the intensity of traumatic memories and improving everyday coping.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and will be worked out together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then adjust the plan as progress is made.
Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the biography does not specify them. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into workdays, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also be a way to keep continuity of care if a person moves or is living abroad. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often find these practical benefits help people sustain regular work on the issues that matter to them.
