About Hannah
I am inspired by the human brain and individual differences. Throughout my life I have always wanted to help others and as soon as I was able to delve into the realms of psychological health and therapy both in my education and career, I did. I have been working in the NHS and healthcare for coming up to a decade and really enjoy working with private clients these last 4 years alongside my public sector roles.
In this time, I have observed how taking care of a person’s health holistically is so more meaningful than the psychological approach alone. So, with this in mind, I have also gained fitness instructing , personal training, managing long term health conditions and advanced nutrition certificates so that I can include these important components of people’s wellbeing into my care.
I believe to truly take care of oneself, you need to have an understanding of what is driving your emotions, thoughts and behaviours. We work together to construct this map so that when we apply changes to your life, you understand exactly why. This means that our intervention can last beyond your sessions, as you learn how to independently apply the techniques and insights.
I hope this has given you insight into the way I support and provide care to my clients, how I view wellbeing and combined with the other information you have found on this site, I hope you will reach out using the form below.
