About Hannah

Hannah Prentice is a counsellor with ten years' experience working in the United Kingdom. She is BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) registered. Hannah offers one-to-one sessions aimed at helping people understand their feelings and find ways to move forward when emotions feel overwhelming.

Her style is warm and non-judgemental. She aims to make clients feel accepted and listened to. Hannah works with each person’s life story and personal experience rather than imposing a fixed plan.

Background and approach

Hannah uses a client-centred approach that keeps the person’s perspective at the heart of the work. She also draws on humanistic and existential ideas to help people facing life choices, loss, or a sense of being stuck. Sessions focus on what the individual wants to change and on practical steps they can try between meetings.

Across her career she has supported people in many settings, including hospital wards, community teams, victim support services and pregnancy advisory centres. That variety has shaped a practical, down-to-earth way of talking about difficult topics like grief, relationship breakdown, career change, stress and low self-esteem. Hannah also has experience offering support around caring responsibilities, bereavement, isolation and life transitions.

Her approach is collaborative: she works with each person to identify goals, try different ways of coping and notice what helps them feel steadier over time.

Ways of working Hannah names

Client-Centred Therapy

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Client-centred care and online sessions

Hannah’s main approach is client-centred therapy. That means sessions are led by what matters to the person. The therapist listens, reflects and helps people find their own solutions. This approach suits issues like low self-esteem, relationship worries and ongoing stress.

Hannah also uses humanistic and existential ideas. Humanistic elements focus on respect for the individual's experience and building self-worth. Existential ideas help when people feel stuck, question life direction or face major changes. These approaches help people talk about meaning, choices and what matters to them in everyday life.

Deciding which approach fits best is part of the work. Hannah will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and then tailor the way sessions are run. This is a collaborative process and can change over time as needs shift.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat and text messaging. Video lets people see body language and have a fuller conversation. Phone calls can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is an issue. Live chat or text messaging suit short check-ins or for people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring responsibilities and busy lives, while keeping continuity of support.
