Hannah Ilori , BACP

Hannah Ilori is a BACP-accredited psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She works with people navigating trauma and abuse, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, eating and food-related issues, and a wide range of emotional concerns including anxiety, depression, stress, addiction, and self-esteem challenges.

Hannah has supported clients from varied cultural, national, and religious backgrounds and values learning from diverse perspectives. She practices from a person-centered foundation, offering a genuine, non-judgemental space where clients can be heard and express themselves openly. That supportive environment is combined with sensitivity and respect, and Hannah adapts conversations and treatment plans to reflect each person’s unique needs.

While rooted in client-centered work, she takes a pluralistic approach and integrates other methods when helpful, for example drawing on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address patterns of thought and behaviour. Her aim is to partner with clients as they make courageous steps toward greater wellbeing and more fulfilling relationships, tailoring the process to the goals and preferences of each individual.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Hannah commonly works from a client-centered perspective, which focuses on creating an accepting, empathic space where people are listened to and supported while they explore their feelings and goals. This approach is helpful for issues such as self-esteem, relationship concerns, grief, and general emotional distress.

She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationship patterns shape current connections and intimacy. This work can be useful for those struggling with attachment issues, difficulties trusting others, or recurring relationship challenges. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is another approach she uses when practical strategies are needed to address patterns of thinking and behaviour - for example with anxiety, low mood, or eating-related difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Hannah collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts the plan as work progresses to ensure the approach remains helpful.

Online sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for different schedules and circumstances. These options can make it easier to maintain continuity of care, connect with licensed professionals from different locations, and fit therapy into a busy life while keeping the focus on accessible, effective support.
