About Thomas
Thomas Hazell is a counsellor who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety and panic-related concerns. He also supports those facing relationship strain, grief, low self-esteem and mood difficulties. He presents himself in a calm, straightforward way to make the first step feel less daunting.
He uses a person-centred style that aims to make clients feel heard and respected. Thomas listens first and helps people name what is worrying them. From there he works together with each person to set practical goals and small steps forward.
His practice draws on several approaches, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and psychodynamic ideas, alongside solution-focused techniques. That mix means sessions can include looking at thought patterns, exploring past influences, and trying short, action-oriented experiments between meetings.
Thomas holds BACP, which means he is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. He has four years' experience working with a range of concerns and personal backgrounds in the United Kingdom.
Sessions are conducted in English. He encourages people to take their time deciding if he is the right fit and to ask questions about how he works before booking. To begin, clients follow the site's Start Therapy process to match and schedule a first meeting.
How Thomas uses talking therapies online
Thomas blends person-centred listening with practical methods such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and solution-focused work. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person, helping them feel understood and able to speak freely. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviours and offers simple exercises to test new ways of thinking and acting. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical goals and small, doable steps to move forward rather than spending long periods on problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Thomas will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest ways of working together. That conversation helps decide whether to focus more on thought patterns, on past influences, or on short practical experiments between sessions.
Please confirm the current session options before booking so you know how meetings are held. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by cutting travel time or allowing a shorter check-in at lunch. It can also allow sessions without needing to be on camera or to travel a long distance, depending on the formats offered by the service and therapist.
