About Hatty
Hatty Taylor is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse. They work affirmatively with LGBT clients and also focus on neuro-inclusive support for people with ADHD and other neurodivergent traits. Hatty uses a respectful approach that aims to make talking about difficult issues easier.
Hatty uses a mix of client-centred work, psychodynamic listening and trauma-focused ways of working. Sessions usually centre on what matters most to the person in front of them, with room to look at how past experiences shape current reactions.
Background and approach
The aim is practical: to reduce unhelpful patterns and to build coping strategies that fit everyday life. Hatty describes their practice as anti-oppressive and person-led. They invite consent and collaboration at each step, and they adapt the pace and tools to the individual.
This includes attention to identity, minority stress, and the needs of neurodivergent clients. With three years of professional experience and a BACP credential, Hatty brings a thoughtful and lived-understanding perspective to sessions. They focus on helping people find clearer thinking, kinder self-talk and steadier routines when things feel overwhelming.
People looking to start can expect gentle, direct conversation and a focus on small, achievable changes. Hatty aims to support personal empowerment and clearer communication as part of longer-term wellbeing work.

How Hatty's approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on meeting a person where they are and following their lead. In practice this means listening closely, reflecting back what matters, and helping people set goals that feel manageable. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and communication problems.Psychodynamic Therapy pays attention to patterns that come from earlier relationships and experiences. The therapist helps name repeating styles of thinking and reacting so the person can choose differently. This approach can help with longstanding patterns tied to shame, guilt or relationship worries.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Hatty will discuss options and try different ways of working until the best fit emerges. The decision is collaborative and based on the person's needs, goals and preferences rather than one fixed method.
Online therapy can make attending sessions easier to fit into daily life. It can save travel time, allow shorter check-ins if needed, and help sessions happen from quieter surroundings or while on a break from work. Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options with Hatty before booking to ensure they match your practical needs.
