Hannah O'Brien

I currently have daytime availability 

I am a Chartered Counselling Psychologist and an accredited psychodynamic counsellor with over ten years of clinical experience working in various settings across the community, education and the NHS.

I offer a warm and confidential therapeutic setting for us to talk together about some of your current difficulties. It may be that you are struggling to cope with a specific life event such as a loss, illness, relationship or change of circumstance. Perhaps you are feeling low in mood, anxious or overwhelmed but the reasons for this seem unclear. I have worked with a range of difficulties and will be happy to discuss what is troubling you.

I have a particular interest in working with issues relating to loss, identity and gender. I tend to work with problems which are interpersonal, that is repeated patterns in our relationships that might have become troublesome. I will be interested in what is happening now and your past experiences.

In time, we will begin to understand your emotional experiences with greater insight, which can bring about relief.

I comply with the continuing professional development requirements of my profession including:

British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy: Accredited Psychodynamic Counsellor (MBACP Accred)

British Psychological Society: Chartered Counselling Psychologist (CPsychol)

The Health Care and Professions Council: Registered Counselling Psychologist

I have breadth and depth of experience across time limited work in the NHS and long-term work in the community and charitable settings. As a qualified teacher, I continue to teach and train alongside my clinical practice. I have mentored and supervised colleagues in the NHS. I currently supervise EAP work for a local charity and teach trainee counsellors. I have colleagial support.  

I offer face to face counselling/psychological therapy. If you are interested in working with me then feel free to make contact and we can speak on the phone. We can then decide whether it would be a good idea to meet to explore whether what I offer may be helpful for you. I may be able to offer online sessions where it is not possible to meet in person.
