About Thomas
Thomas Hazell is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, low self-esteem and money and financial issues. He offers a calm space where people can talk through difficult feelings and life changes. He works in English and is based in the United Kingdom.
Thomas uses a person-centred way of working that focuses on the individual's experience. He aims to listen carefully and reflect what is said so people feel understood. Sessions are set up to reduce judgement and let clients explore their thoughts at their own pace.
He draws on a mix of approaches to meet different needs. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, is used to help spot unhelpful thinking and try practical changes. Psychodynamic ideas can help people look at patterns from their past that still affect them now.
Solution-focused techniques are brought in to identify clear goals and small steps that move things forward. The combined methods aim to be practical and grounded, helping people with immediate problems and longer standing issues alike.
Thomas holds membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. He has four years of experience working with a range of concerns including trauma and abuse, anger, career worries, mood disorders and issues around parenting roles such as fatherhood and blended families. He encourages people to take the first step and complete the short matching form before arranging sessions.
How his approaches translate to online counselling
Thomas combines person-centred work with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people remotely. Person-centred or client-centred therapy focuses on listening, warmth and reflection to help someone make sense of their experience and feel heard. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours connect and uses practical exercises to try alternative ways of coping.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Thomas will talk with the client about their goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. Decisions about pace, focus and techniques are made collaboratively so the approach fits the individual needs and what they want to achieve.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the available session formats before booking since the profile does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around daily life, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let someone continue therapy while managing work, caring responsibilities or relocation. Registered or accredited professionals including therapists often adapt exercises and homework to suit remote sessions and aim to make progress in ways that match each person's practical circumstances.
