Background and approach

Meetings are conversational and paced to what the person needs in that moment. She uses techniques drawn from evidence-based approaches to reduce unhelpful thinking and build coping skills. Her background includes more than 11 years of practice with people in the United Kingdom and internationally.

Haylee is a BACP member, which means she meets the association's professional standards. She also has training in hypnotherapy that she may incorporate where appropriate. In early meetings Haylee focuses on understanding what matters most to the client.

She aims to work collaboratively to set goals and track small changes. Sessions often combine practical exercises with reflective discussion to help people feel steadier between appointments. Haylee adapts her style to each person's needs and preferences.

She explains tools in plain language and checks how they feel in real life. This approach helps people try things at a comfortable pace and notice what works for them.

Therapeutic approaches for remote support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, while building a life that reflects their values. It suits worries such as anxiety, low mood and trouble committing to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical exercises to reduce unhelpful thinking and improve coping with symptoms like panic, phobias and sleep problems. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns shape current ways of relating and feeling safe, which can help with intimacy problems, relationship stress and attachment issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and try techniques together to see what fits best with the person's goals and preferences. This makes therapy a collaborative process where methods are adjusted as progress is made.

Online therapy offers practical advantages for busy or geographically distant people. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when meeting in person is difficult. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or suit lower bandwidth situations. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to fit support around work, childcare or days when writing feels easier than speaking. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists who use these approaches, can work with clients internationally using these flexible formats.
