Thomas Hazell, BACP

Thomas Hazell offers support for stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, low self-esteem, trauma and abuse, anger, career pressures and depression. He helps people cope with life changes and practical problems, including blended family issues, caregiver stress, commitment and control worries, separation, domestic violence concerns, fatherhood issues, guilt and shame, infidelity, isolation and money worries.

Thomas works in a warm, non-judgemental way. He follows a person-centred approach that focuses on listening and building trust. Sessions are intended as a space to talk things through at a comfortable pace. He encourages clear goals and practical steps when they feel helpful.

He also uses cognitive behavioural ideas to help identify unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of responding. Solution-focused techniques are used when people prefer short-term, goal-driven work. Psychodynamic ideas can help look at longer-standing patterns if that fits the person’s aim.

Thomas is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown as BACP. He has four years of clinical experience working with a range of personal and emotional difficulties. Sessions are offered in English and take place with respect for each person’s individual story.

If you are unsure how to begin, Thomas asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire via the Start Therapy button. That helps match needs and make practical arrangements for scheduling and subscription details.

How Thomas’s approaches can work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship so people feel heard and understood; it helps with emotional distress, low self-esteem and situations that need steady support. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions link together and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, low mood and stress. Solution-Focused Therapy targets specific goals and small steps, which can suit someone wanting short-term progress and clear actions.

Finding the best fit is part of the process. Thomas will work with each person to choose and adapt approaches based on what they want to achieve. Decisions about focus, pace and techniques are collaborative and reviewed as therapy progresses.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use video or audio in ways that match their energy and time, keeping therapy practical and accessible.
