Haylee Ford , BACP

Haylee Ford is a UK-based psychotherapist and clinical hypnotherapist with 11 years of experience supporting people in the United Kingdom and internationally. She focuses on helping clients navigate a broad range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, self-esteem and confidence, motivation, and relationship or family difficulties. Haylee approaches therapy as a collaborative process, working alongside each person to identify values, develop practical coping strategies, and break unhelpful patterns that limit everyday functioning and wellbeing.

She integrates talking therapies with hypnotherapy techniques where appropriate, tailoring interventions to the client’s goals and pace. Haylee is a registered member of the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, the UK professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists - and an accredited member of the NCPS. Her practice welcomes people facing challenges such as grief, addictions, parenting and career transitions, intimacy-related issues, ADHD, and compassion fatigue, among others. Haylee strives to create a respectful, nonjudgmental environment that recognises each client as the expert in their own life while offering evidence-informed tools and steady support to foster meaningful change.

Therapeutic approaches for online support and care

Haylee commonly integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) into online work. ACT helps people clarify what matters to them and develop practical ways to act in line with their values, even when difficult thoughts or feelings arise - it can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and life transitions.

Attachment-Based Therapy is another approach she uses to explore how early relationships shape current patterns in intimacy and trust. This work helps clients understand relationship dynamics and build more secure, connected ways of relating with partners, family members, or themselves.

Haylee also offers clinical hypnotherapy as a complementary tool to support habit change, stress reduction, and enhanced focus when appropriate. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process - Haylee will listen to each client’s needs, goals, and preferences and recommend techniques that fit their situation rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for people with busy schedules, limited local options, or mobility constraints. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and access licensed professionals and therapists from different locations while tailoring the format to what feels most comfortable for the client.
