More about Hayley

  • 3 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP, NCPS

I am a fully qualified Counsellor with a Diploma of Higher Education (DipHE Couns.) in Counselling, from Middlesex University. I am a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), as well as an Accredited Registrant Member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society, MNCPS (Acc.).

I run a private practice, based in Guernsey, but I also work Online for those outside of Guernsey. I regularly attend courses for my continuing professional development (CPD) and work within the ethical bodies I am Registered with. For many years, I have worked with various charities based in Guernsey, the UK and Abroad. I work with clients from all walks of life, various ethnic backgrounds and those with a faith/spirituality and those with none.

My experience includes working with Individuals and Couples in areas (but not limited too) such as stress, anxiety, panic attacks, depression, relationship issues, grief and loss, trauma and abuse (past and current) including survivors of sexual abuse and rape, affecting both men and women.

I believe each person is unique with a unique story to tell and therefore, I aim to treat each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. In a non-judging space, you can share whatever concerns or worries you have, including the 'hidden and secret' parts of you that may feel shame or embarrassment.

I use an Integrative approach tailored to your unique needs and often draw on modalities such as, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, gestalt theory, psychodynamic theory, transactional analysis, inner child therapy, spiritual/religious Interventions (if appropriate) and creative work. When working with couples, I use a relational and systemic approach, as well as creative work if this helps. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support and empower you in that journey.

I look forward to working with you!

About online counseling

Affordable.

Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
