About Hannah

Hannah Ilori works on relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and eating-related issues using a person-centred approach alongside other practical methods. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has four years of professional experience.

Hannah welcomes conversations about anxiety, depression, stress, anger and issues with self-esteem. She also supports people coping with addiction, sexual and intimacy-related concerns, sleep problems and changes in career or family roles. Her practice includes work with LGBT concerns and a range of attachment and personality-related difficulties.

Her core approach is client-centred counselling, which focuses on listening and building a respectful therapeutic relationship. She also draws on cognitive behavioural ideas and emotionally-focused techniques when these are useful for practical change. Mindfulness and attachment-based ideas inform her way of working with recurring patterns and relationships.

Sessions usually involve talking through current problems, looking at how feelings and behaviour connect, and trying out different ways of managing difficulties. Hannah describes herself as pluralist, so she may combine methods to suit the person and issue being addressed. This can include short-term strategies for coping and longer conversations about life patterns.

She has worked with people from different national and cultural backgrounds and describes learning from their varied experiences. Conversations tend to be respectful, direct and aimed at helping someone find clearer ways forward.

How her approaches work in online counselling

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships influence feelings and behaviour now, and can help with intimacy issues, codependency and recurring relationship patterns. Client-centred counselling focuses on the counsellor listening without judgement and helping the person feel heard, which can support clearer thinking about current problems and choices. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thinking and behaviour with practical exercises and steps that people can try between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Hannah will discuss the person's goals and preferences and recommend or combine methods that seem most helpful. This is a collaborative process where techniques are adjusted as progress is reviewed.

The practical benefits of online sessions often include easier fitting of counselling into a busy week, fewer travel commitments and the option of shorter check-ins when needed. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which formats are offered before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can use different ways of meeting, and Hannah will explain the available options when arranging the first session.
