Hannah qualified with a first-class Master’s Degree in Art Psychotherapy in 2013.
Her psychodynamic training with a creative specialism has given her valuable experience in both adult mental health and community health. Hannah initially worked within the NHS and later spent many years offering 1:1 and group therapy to children and adolescents in state and special education settings, as well as independent education. Over this time, she gained experience working with young people and adults in higher education, offering counselling to both students and staff. She has worked with families, parents and carers offering therapeutic support and coaching.
Hannah can provide both art therapy and talking sessions. She is an integrative therapist who adapts to what her client needs. She has experience of working with a psychodynamic approach, which is based on thinking about unconscious patterns of behaviour and emotions from past and present. Hannah takes a person-centred and humanistic approach. This means working with what the client brings to the session at the time and holding in mind who they are as an individual.
Hannah is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, the Health Care Professions Council, and the British Association of Art Therapists.
Hannah is available for an informal telephone chat prior to taking bookings. This aims to ensure intervention with Hannah will be beneficial and gives an opportunity for questions or concerns to be discussed.
