Hanna Mallie , BACP

Hanna Mallie is a UK-based counsellor who works from a respectful, empathetic perspective to help people navigate stress, anxiety, trauma, low self-esteem, depression, relationship difficulties, and a wide range of life challenges. She draws on a holistic, person-focused stance to support clients through issues such as grief, addictions, intimacy concerns, sleeping difficulties, anger, career pressures, and compassion fatigue, as well as more specific concerns like dissociation, domestic violence, obsessive-compulsive patterns, process-related addictions, and sexual assault and abuse.

Hanna practices in a non-judgmental way that encourages self-exploration and the development of inner resources. She places emphasis on helping people understand their thoughts and feelings, build resilience, and find practical strategies to move forward when life feels overwhelming. Her approach recognises that each person is unique and that therapeutic work benefits from sensitivity, patience, and collaboration.

Hanna holds BACP accreditation - the UK professional association for counsellors and psychotherapists - and integrates established therapeutic methods to tailor support to individual needs. She aims to create a supportive space where people can explore patterns, identify goals, and work toward greater clarity and wellbeing.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Hanna works with a blend of evidence-informed approaches to meet different needs. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a trusting, empathetic relationship and helps people explore their feelings and values in a non-judgmental way - it is useful for improving self-esteem, processing life changes, and finding personal direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, which can be particularly helpful for anxiety, depression, and sleeping problems. Psychodynamic Therapy explores how past experiences and unconscious patterns shape present behaviour, supporting deeper insight into relationship difficulties, recurrent emotional patterns, and issues linked to trauma.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Hanna collaborates with each person to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, adapting techniques over time to suit changing needs and priorities. This collaborative way of working ensures treatment aligns with the client’s pace and aims.

Online therapy expands access to these approaches through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options offer flexibility for people balancing work, family, or mobility constraints, allow sessions to happen from familiar surroundings, and make it easier to maintain continuity of care when schedules change. Licensed professionals can tailor format and frequency to fit the practical realities of a client’s life while focusing on meaningful therapeutic progress.
