About Hana

Hana Ibrahim is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years of practice in the United Kingdom. She works with people who are under stress, struggling with anxiety or depression, dealing with relationship or family tensions, and those trying to find direction after major life changes. Her profile also lists concerns such as parenting, anger, ADHD, grief and issues around life purpose.

In sessions she focuses on practical conversation and problem-solving. She has experience practising cognitive behavioural therapy approaches and uses those techniques to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try different ways of coping. The work is straightforward and aims to break problems into manageable steps.

Hana pays attention to communication patterns and everyday pressures that make things worse. She can support people facing workplace stress, social anxiety, panic attacks, phobias and feelings of isolation. Her practice also notes a focus on domestic violence, substance issues, fatherhood concerns and forgiveness when these arise in a person's life.

People who come to her can expect time to talk through what matters most to them and to set small goals for change. She encourages practical strategies for confidence and motivation alongside exploring feelings. Sessions are offered in English and she does not take international clients.

To begin, clients follow the site process to match and schedule a session. Fees vary by location and are arranged through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches and online working

Hana uses cognitive behavioural approaches in plain, practical terms to help people spot thought patterns that increase anxiety or low mood. CBT techniques typically involve identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing those ideas in day-to-day life, and practising alternative responses to reduce distress.

She also draws on brief, structured problem-solving methods that focus on immediate difficulties such as workplace stress, relationship tensions or panic symptoms. These methods break problems into steps and explore realistic actions a person can take between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with each person and choose techniques based on their needs, goals and preferences. That planning is collaborative and can be adjusted as therapy progresses.

The original biography does not list which online session formats are offered, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some formats also use less bandwidth or do not require being on camera, which can help on busy days.
