About Neil
Neil Hall is a counsellor registered with BACP and NCPS and has seven years' experience. He works with issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, LGBT matters, self-esteem and career uncertainty. He also helps people with trauma, grief, sleeping problems, anger and coping with major life changes.
Neil uses practical talking approaches to help people notice patterns and try different ways of responding. He listens and then works with each person to set small, achievable steps. Sessions often focus on what feels most pressing, such as managing panic, dealing with discrimination, or rebuilding after loss.
His background includes work across a range of settings over several years, supporting adults through everyday problems and harder life events. That experience informs a straightforward style that aims to make therapy useful for daily life, not just a place to talk.
Neil draws on Evidence-based methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client-Centred approaches to guide conversations and practical exercises. He also uses Solution-Focused techniques to identify strengths and next steps.
People come to him for help with things like sex and intimacy concerns, sexual assault recovery, isolation, workplace stress, and questions about identity and purpose. He offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. Cost varies with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that match their values, useful for anxiety and life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and testing small behavioural experiments to reduce symptoms like panic or low mood. Client-Centred work emphasises clear listening and reflecting so the person can make sense of their own concerns and decide on next steps.Choosing the right approach is part of how he works. He will talk it through with each person and pick techniques together based on the issues, goals and what feels workable. That collaborative process aims to match practical tools to everyday needs rather than imposing a single method.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make therapy easier to fit around study, early career shifts and busy schedules. It can also allow shorter check-ins, reduce travel time and let people join a session from different locations when that helps them manage time or access care.
