Hannah Dickinson, BACP

Hannah Dickinson is a UK-licensed therapist with 10 years of professional experience, offering compassionate, practical support for people facing a range of mental health concerns. She holds BACP membership - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which is the professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the UK, and she draws on that professional grounding to inform her work.

Hannah has experience helping clients with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, bipolar disorder, and other mental health issues. She approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and empathy, meeting them where they are and adapting interventions to fit their unique circumstances. Her focus is on tailoring a treatment plan that reflects an individual’s needs, goals, and strengths rather than using a one-size-fits-all method.

Recognising that seeking help takes courage, Hannah aims to create a supportive therapeutic relationship that makes the process of change more manageable. She collaborates with clients to set realistic steps toward a more fulfilling and balanced life, offering steady guidance and practical strategies along the way.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Hannah works from several evidence-informed perspectives to meet different needs. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a trusting, nonjudgmental relationship where the client’s own experience guides the pace of change; it is helpful for issues like low self-esteem, relationship concerns, and general life stress. Psychodynamic Therapy explores how past experiences and unconscious patterns influence current feelings and behaviours, which can be valuable for understanding recurring difficulties and deeper emotional conflicts. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on processing and reducing the long-term impact of traumatic experiences, with techniques aimed at helping people regain a sense of control and relief from distress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Hannah collaborates with each person to identify which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as therapy progresses so the work feels personally relevant and effective.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit support into busy lives, to continue care while travelling, or to access therapists from different locations. Registered professionals can provide consistent therapeutic relationships through these formats, helping clients work toward change in ways that suit their schedule and communication style.
