About Hatty
Hatty Taylor is a BACP-registered counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people facing stress, anxiety and panic attacks. They also provide help around trauma and abuse, depression, ADHD and issues connected to being LGBT. Hatty aims to create a respectful, sensitive space where people can begin to feel more in control and less overwhelmed.
Hatty describes an anti-oppressive, affirmative approach. Sessions are shaped around each person’s needs and carried out with the person’s explicit consent. They bring lived experience as a neurodivergent, queer counsellor to their practice and use that perspective to inform how they work.
In practice Hatty listens closely and encourages people to talk through what is most worrying them. The therapist uses psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns from the past, client-centred ways to keep the person’s goals in focus, and trauma-focused methods when traumatic events are involved. These approaches are adapted to the individual rather than applied in a fixed way.
Hatty has three years of professional experience. They aim to help people manage intense moments, recognise triggers for panic, and build coping strategies that fit everyday life. Sessions emphasise practical steps alongside space to make sense of painful experiences.
People are invited to choose therapy when they feel ready. Hatty supports each person at their own pace and works collaboratively to set goals and review progress.
How Hatty’s approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s lead. The counsellor offers empathy and reflection to help people name feelings and set meaningful goals. This approach is useful for anxiety, low mood and worries about daily life.Psychodynamic Therapy looks at how past experiences shape current reactions and relationships. It can help uncover patterns that fuel panic or repeated stress responses, giving a basis for making different choices in the present.
Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on working through the effects of traumatic events and reducing their hold on everyday life. This method supports people who experience flashbacks, strong reactions or post-traumatic stress symptoms.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Hatty will discuss options with each person and decide together which methods fit best for their needs, goals and preferences. The process is collaborative and reviewed as therapy progresses.
If you are considering online therapy, check the available session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to access a therapist with a shared background, such as a neurodivergent, queer practitioner. Confirm current session formats when you arrange your first appointment.
