About Hayley
Dr Hayley Trower is a UK-based counsellor accredited with the BACP and has three years' experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship strain, low self-esteem and coping with life changes, including issues around guilt and shame.
Hayley uses a person-centred stance alongside psychodynamic ideas. That means she listens for what lies beneath current worries and also focuses on the present concerns people bring. Sessions can include guided breathwork, creative visualisation and meditation as practical ways to help regulate strong emotions.
She often works with clients who feel overwhelmed by their emotions, who overthink, or who struggle with people-pleasing and boundary-setting. Hayley also supports people dealing with burnout, disconnection from themselves, and complicated relationship dynamics.
In practical terms she blends structured therapy with more intuitive techniques. Conversations address the immediate problem while gently looking at underlying patterns that keep it repeating. The aim is to help clients reconnect with what matters to them and develop clearer ways of responding to stress and shame.
Sessions invite steady pacing and small, manageable steps. Clients who have tried more conventional approaches before and felt something was missing may find this combination useful.

How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on attentive listening and responding to what matters most to the client. Online sessions using this approach tend to centre the client's experience, helping them name and understand feelings like guilt or shame in ordinary language.Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns that repeat across relationships and time. In an online setting it can help people notice how past dynamics show up now, and how these patterns link to feelings such as shame or self-blame.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss different ways of working and decide together which methods fit the client's goals and preferences. That collaborative choice can be revisited as therapy progresses.
The practical benefits of remote sessions are about fitting therapy into everyday life. Clients can save travel time, make appointments around work or family commitments, and choose quieter surroundings that suit them.
