About Hana
Hana Ibrahim is a counsellor registered with the BACP and has three years of professional experience. She works with young adults and others on common early-adult pressures including stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship and family concerns, and career questions.
She has practical experience helping people with depression and anxiety disorders. Hana also supports those coping with trauma, grief, parenting challenges, anger and life changes. ADHD and workplace issues are among the areas she addresses alongside social anxiety and panic symptoms.
Her way of working is straightforward and conversational. Sessions focus on identifying what feels most difficult now and trying realistic steps that can reduce day-to-day strain. Conversations cover thoughts, feelings and behaviours, and the aim is to find things that make everyday life a bit easier to manage.
Hana has experience using evidence-based therapeutic techniques and applies them to the problems people bring. She encourages clear goals and practical exercises between sessions when these are helpful. Progress is tracked by reviewing what changes have stuck and what still feels hard.
She sees people in the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English. International clients are not currently accepted. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.
How evidence-based techniques are used online
Hana draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help with the problems people bring. Cognitive approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing alternative thoughts to reduce anxiety and low mood. Behavioural techniques concentrate on practical steps and activities that rebuild confidence and reduce avoidance, which can help with social anxiety, panic and workplace stress.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Hana discusses goals and preferences in early sessions and then tailors which techniques to try. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made if something does not feel helpful.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as the biography does not list them explicitly. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel time, allowing a shorter check-in during a work break, or reducing the need to be on camera when that helps. Registered or accredited professionals can use these ways of meeting to maintain continuity of care while clients juggle study, work and family commitments.
