About Hannah

BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years of experience, Hannah Ilori works with people facing trauma and abuse, relationship difficulties, eating concerns, grief and loss, anxiety, depression and related issues. She uses client-centred ways of working alongside other practical methods to help people feel heard and make changes.

Hannah uses a person-centred foundation that places the relationship at the centre of sessions. She listens without judgement and offers a steady dialogue where clients can speak openly. Alongside that base she draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to look at patterns of thinking and behaviour, and on attachment-informed perspectives to understand how early relationships affect current difficulties.

Sessions may include brief skills work, mindfulness practices and structured conversations about specific problems. Hannah describes her approach as pluralist - she combines different methods when they suit the client’s goals. That means some meetings may focus on practical coping strategies and others on exploring emotional patterns that repeat in relationships.

She has worked with people from varied cultural and national backgrounds and reports experience with issues linked to identity and sexuality, including LGBT concerns. Additional focuses include addiction, body image and parenting-related pressures, as well as attachment and family of origin issues.

Hannah’s practice emphasises respect and sensitivity. She asks clients about their goals and adapts the way she works to those aims. To begin, the usual route is to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.

How her approaches translate to online work

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions can be used to notice repeated relational responses and to practice different ways of connecting with others. Client-centred work focuses on listening and building a consistent therapeutic relationship. That foundation can be recreated in remote sessions through regular meetings and reflective conversation. Cognitive behavioural techniques break problems into thoughts, feelings and behaviours and introduce practical exercises. These can include short behavioural experiments, worksheets or simple mindfulness practices to use between sessions.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to identify goals, try methods that fit those aims and review what helps most. This may mean combining relational reflection with concrete skills work over several meetings.

The biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around daily life, for example by reducing travel time, allowing a shorter check-in during a busy day, or removing the need to be on camera for every meeting. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists who use these approaches, often find remote sessions useful for people who need flexibility and practical ways to apply new skills.
