Haylee Ford , BACP

Haylee Ford is a licensed, accredited, and insured psychotherapist and clinical hypnotherapist with 11 years of experience supporting clients in the United Kingdom and internationally. She works with people facing a wide range of challenges - including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, motivation and self-esteem concerns, confidence difficulties, and depression. She is a registered member of the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and an accredited member of the NCPS.

Haylee approaches therapy with the conviction that each person is the expert on their own life. She focuses on helping clients identify their strengths, clarify goals, and develop practical tools to move forward. Her style is collaborative and respectful, aimed at building understanding of the patterns and experiences that may be holding someone back while encouraging meaningful change.

To support different needs she draws on a range of clinical methods, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), attachment-based approaches, client-centered principles, cognitive behavioral techniques, and clinical hypnotherapy. Haylee works with individuals across life stages and circumstances to address relationship and intimacy issues, grief and loss, addictions, neurodiversity-related concerns, parenting and family dynamics, and career or identity transitions. She acknowledges the courage it takes to seek help and aims to empower clients toward a more satisfying and manageable life.

Therapeutic Approaches Adapted for Online Sessions

Haylee often integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) into her work. ACT helps clients clarify their values, develop psychological flexibility, and take committed action toward what matters to them - it is commonly used for anxiety, low mood, and stress-related difficulties. Attachment-Based Therapy is another frequent focus; this approach explores relational patterns and early attachment experiences to improve intimacy, trust, and connection in adult relationships. Clinical hypnotherapy is also part of her toolkit - it involves guided relaxation and focused attention to support changes in habits, motivation, and emotional responses.

Choosing the best therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Haylee works with clients to identify their needs, goals, and preferences, and she tailors methods accordingly, adjusting as progress unfolds so that the therapy fits the individual rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy with licensed professionals and experienced therapists offers practical flexibility - sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, to continue work when travel or relocation occurs, and to access support from the comfort of one’s own environment. This range of options helps maintain momentum and makes it simpler to find a format that feels most effective for each person.
