About Hayley

Hayley Mcgregor is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who aims to help people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief or major life changes. She works in a warm, steady way and focuses on building trust so a person can talk openly and be heard. Her approach is adaptable to the issues someone brings and to their pace of change.

Hayley uses a mix of counselling methods to match each person’s needs.

Background and approach

That means sessions can focus on understanding attachment patterns, learning practical coping skills, or working through emotional pain from loss. Conversations are guided by what feels most helpful in the moment rather than a fixed step-by-step protocol. She supports people with depression, low self-esteem, relationship and parenting concerns, addictions and compassion fatigue.

Additional areas of focus include ADHD, chronic illness and body image, along with grief and caregiving stress. The range allows her to respond to both everyday pressures and longer-term struggles. Hayley has three years’ experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, commonly known as BACP.

That registration is noted as part of her professional details. Sessions can be arranged as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging. Practical matters such as cost vary by location and are handled through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and appointments are scheduled to suit both parties.

How Hayley’s approaches work online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape the way someone connects with others today. It helps when patterns of trust, fear of abandonment or difficulty with closeness get in the way of current relationships. Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the centre of the work. The counsellor offers empathy and acceptance so the person can find their own understanding and choices.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, combines practical exercises with talking to help change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. It is often used for anxiety, depression and stress because it gives clear strategies people can practise between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The counsellor will work collaboratively to agree what to try first and adapt methods as the work progresses. Decisions are guided by the client’s needs, goals and what feels most useful in session.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to give options that fit different lives. Video calls are close to face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat allows shorter check-ins and messaging suits people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care and to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
