About Hannah
Hannah Prentice is a BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) registered counsellor with ten years' experience in the United Kingdom. She offers one-to-one counselling aimed at helping people who feel overwhelmed by emotions such as anger, anxiety, depression, stress and grief. Hannah works with practical life problems like career change, parenting strain, caregiver stress and relationship difficulties.
Her approach is person-centred and humanistic. She listens without judgement and helps people name what they are feeling. Sessions are straightforward conversations that focus on understanding emotions and finding manageable next steps.
Hannah has worked in a range of settings. These include community mental health support, a hospital acute psychiatric ward, foodbank counselling, prison advocacy and pregnancy support services. That background means she is used to supporting people through sudden changes, loss and long-term pressures.
She uses person-centred and existential methods to help people think about meaning, choice and practical action. Clients looking at work stress, low self-esteem, loneliness or life transitions can expect help to untangle thoughts and options rather than quick fixes. Hannah also has training in supporting victims of crime, dementia awareness and mental health first steps.
Sessions aim to help people reduce overwhelm and move towards clearer decision making. People who want straightforward, conversational counselling about anger, life change or ongoing stress may find this approach useful.
How her person-centred approach works online
Hannah uses a person-centred approach that focuses on listening and reflecting back what someone says. This method helps people clarify feelings, including anger and frustration, and decide on practical next steps. It suits issues like stress, relationship tension and low self-esteem.She also draws on humanistic and existential ideas which encourage clients to explore meaning and choice. That can help when someone feels stuck after a major life change, a loss, or during career uncertainty. These approaches are conversational and aim to help people think through options rather than provide immediate fixes.
Finding the best approach is part of the work. Hannah will talk with the client about their needs, goals and preferences and agree a way forward together. This collaborative process means methods can be adjusted as the work progresses.
