Hannah Light, BACP

Hannah Light is a counsellor who uses a person-centred approach to help people find balance across mind, body and emotions. She works in a warm, attentive way and aims to create a space where people can speak honestly and be heard without judgement. Hannah is BACP registered and practises from the United Kingdom.

Hannah believes that change begins with listening to what matters most. Sessions focus on what the person brings, and she helps them connect with their own sense of direction. Practical conversations may include coping strategies for stress, managing anxiety, grieving loss, or navigating life changes.

Her work also explores emotional responses held in the body, and she uses somatic and mindfulness-based techniques to help people notice physical sensations and calm their nervous system. Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas are used to look at how feelings shape relationships and self‑understanding.

Over seven years in practice have included supporting people facing chronic illness, caregiving strain, end-of-life concerns and ageing-related challenges. Hannah also helps with self-esteem, sleep struggles, career transitions and communication difficulties.

Sessions are offered in English and are organised through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session according to Hannah's availability.

How therapeutic approaches work in online counselling

Hannah draws on client-centred work to keep the person’s experience central. This approach means sessions begin by focusing on what matters to the individual and building a trusting conversation that follows their priorities.

She also brings mindfulness-based ideas into online sessions to help people notice thoughts and bodily sensations in the moment. Mindfulness can be useful for anxiety, stress and sleep difficulties by teaching simple attention and breathing practices.

Somatic techniques are used to help people become aware of physical responses linked to emotions. These practices can help when trauma, chronic pain or tension affect daily life and when noticing the body helps people feel more grounded.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then adapt methods over time so they fit the person’s needs.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy routine, reduce travel and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can tailor sessions to practical needs while focusing on emotional and bodily patterns that matter.
