About Hannah
Hannah Light uses a person-focused approach that places the client's experience at the centre of each session. She combines client-centred listening with emotion-focused and body-aware work to help people manage stress, anxiety, grief and low self-esteem. Hannah's style is calm and direct, with attention to what feels most useful in the moment.
Hannah works with depression, coping with life changes, trauma and abuse, and relationship and intimacy-related issues. She also supports people dealing with sleeping problems, parenting strain, anger and career stress.
How Hannah works
Her additional focus areas include chronic illness and pain, cancer, end-of-life and caregiver concerns, body image, and feelings of loneliness or emptiness. In sessions she encourages clients to notice how emotions, thoughts and bodily sensations connect. Mindfulness and somatic techniques are used alongside emotionally-focused approaches to help people regulate intense feelings.
The aim is practical: reduce overwhelm, improve day-to-day coping and help people make choices that feel right for them. Hannah has seven years of professional experience and holds BACP registration, which is listed as BACP. She offers therapy in English and works from the United Kingdom.
Sessions are offered through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire. Scheduling is then arranged according to the therapist's availability and the chosen session format.

Online support options
Approaches you can use in online therapy
Hannah uses client-centred work that focuses on understanding each person's experience and priorities. This approach means the session follows what matters to the client, with the counsellor offering non-judgemental listening and gentle reflection to help people make sense of their feelings.She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy, which pays attention to patterns in close relationships and the emotions beneath them. EFT can be useful for people wanting to better understand how attachment and emotional responses affect their relationships and sense of self.
Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be a collaborative decision. Hannah will discuss goals and preferences, try techniques that fit the client's needs, and adjust the way she works as the relationship develops.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and shared visual cues, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging let people write through their thoughts and fit therapy into busy days. These options make it simpler to keep continuity of care and to choose a format that suits day-to-day life.
