About Hana
BACP. 3 years of professional counselling experience. Hana Ibrahim works with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, low self-esteem, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting and anger. She also supports people facing career pressures, life changes and ADHD-related difficulties.
Hana describes her approach as evidence-based and practical. She draws on cognitive and behavioural methods to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try different ways of responding. Sessions are conversational and focused on small, manageable changes rather than long lectures.
She has particular experience with anxiety disorders, including panic and phobias, and with problems around communication and workplace stress. Hana also works with issues linked to addiction, domestic violence impacts, isolation and difficulties with forgiveness or self-love. She lists fatherhood issues and young adult concerns among her areas of focus.
In the counselling room she aims to make it straightforward to talk about difficult feelings. She helps people break down problems into steps they can act on. Practical tools, such as thought records and behavioural experiments, are used alongside exploring the meaning of events.
Hana works in English and practises in the United Kingdom. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and cost varies with location. To start, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and then schedules a first session via the See online counselling options button.
Therapeutic approaches and how online counselling fits
Hana works with evidence-based cognitive and behavioural techniques. Cognitive approaches look at how thoughts affect feelings and behaviour, and use practical exercises to test and change unhelpful thinking patterns. This can help with anxiety, panic attacks, phobias and low self-esteem.She also uses behavioural strategies that focus on activity, routine and graded exposure. These methods encourage step-by-step practice of new behaviours and can reduce avoidance, improve mood and build confidence in daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what has helped or not helped before, and will work collaboratively to try methods that fit the persons situation.
The biography does not specify session formats, so please confirm which formats are currently offered before booking. Many people find remote sessions easier to fit around work, childcare and travel, and they can make shorter check-ins or regular weekly meetings simpler to manage. Registered or accredited professionals often adapt exercises and between-session tasks so they work well when counselling is delivered at a distance.
