Hanna Mallie, BACP

Hanna Mallie is a counsellor with a BACP accreditation and seven years of practice in therapeutic settings. She focuses on helping people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression and trauma. Hanna aims to offer a respectful, compassionate space where people can start to make sense of difficult feelings and find practical ways forward.

Before qualifying she spent many years providing emotional and practical support in mental health, homelessness, domestic abuse and family work. That background informs her hands-on, empathetic style and helps her relate to practical hardships as well as emotional pain.

Her approach is integrative and person-focused. Sessions are led by the client’s needs and pace. Hanna uses listening, reflective questioning and goal-focused tools to help people notice patterns, build coping skills and try new ways of responding.

She often works on issues such as self-esteem, addiction and relationship struggles, as well as grief and compassion fatigue. Hanna also supports people dealing with sleeping problems, anger, obsessive or compulsive behaviours and sexual trauma.

People can expect straightforward conversations and simple exercises to try between sessions. Hanna prefers a warm, non-judgemental tone and aims to help clients connect with their own inner resources. To begin, clients follow the site’s start process and schedule sessions according to availability.

How Hanna’s Approaches Help Online

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience at the heart of sessions. The therapist listens closely and follows the client’s pace to build trust and clarity, which can help with low self-worth, grief and relationship worries.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses simple exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviours, which can be useful for anxiety, sleep problems and compulsive patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Hanna will discuss options and work together with the client to choose methods that fit goals and preferences. That collaborative choice is reviewed as therapy progresses.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments around work, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use tools and worksheets digitally between meetings, which can help keep progress moving on a day-to-day basis.
