My name is Dr Hannah Taylor and I am a Clinical Psychologist. I am registered with the Health Care Professions Council. I have established this profile specifically to faciltate my own professional interests in promoting the wellbeing of the general public. As such I am happy to interact with professionals, service users and carers via this profile. I work across predominantly online via video platforms such as zoom or Skype. I tailor my therapeutic approach to the needs of the individual, working alongside the client to help them to live rich and meaningful lives, and to achieve their goals. Since qualifying as a Clinical Psychologist, I have been working in the NHS and also privately with adults with a broad range of mental health problems using evidence based, effective psychological therapy. Continued professional development is important to me and I continue to enhance my own skills and knowledge through relevant training and supervision. Since qualification I have received extensive training in Acceptance and Commitment therapy and Compassion Focused Therapy. I offer a professional, confidential, compassionate, non-judgmental approach to clients. Therapy is tailored to your needs, with the aim of helping you to gain an understanding of your difficulties and working with you and supporting you to overcome them. I work with adults (over 16 years old) who experience a variety of difficulties including: social anxiety, panic attacks, health anxiety, stress, depression, trauma difficulties, psychosis, relationship difficulties, and general dissatisfaction with life. As a Clinical Psychologist I am trained in providing more than one type of therapy. Those which I provide are Cognitive-Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment therapy (ACT), and Compassion-Focused therapy (CFT). Any intervention offered is based upon individual need and the psychological formulation of the individual’s current difficulties. An initial assessment would ascertain what might be the most appropriate form of therapy. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a type of psychotherapy that helps you accept the difficulties that come with life. ACT has been around for a long time but seems to be gaining media attention lately. ACT is a form of mindfulness based therapy, which suggests that greater well-being can be achieved by learning ways of overcoming negative thoughts and feelings. The aim is to help you lead a rich and meaningful life, whilst coping with the struggles that life inevitably brings. I run small group ACT workshops for men and women who feel they want to learn more valuable skills in being able to manage the challenges life can throw at us. These groups are very popular so please get in touch if you would like to know when the next workshop is running. I also offer an assessment only service, which is usually requested by individuals looking for a “one-off” psychological report. This report would include a full assessment of the individual’s difficulties, and future recommendations for their psychological well-being. Areas of assessment include adult ADHD and psychological disorders (including post-traumatic stress disorder). Please enquire further regarding fees associated with a psychological report. I am registered with a number of health insurance providers.
