Hayley Day helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low self‑esteem, depression or major life changes. She also supports people dealing with parenting pressures and offers understanding around issues linked to autism and Asperger syndrome. Hayley uses a calm, non‑judgemental style that aims to make talking about hard things feel easier.

Hayley gives space for people to talk through what matters to them. She listens closely and reflects what she hears so clients can notice patterns and choices.

Background and approach

The aim is to help people build small practical steps that fit their daily life and strengths. Her work is grounded in Client‑Centred Therapy, which puts the person’s own experience at the centre of sessions. That approach helps when anxiety, low mood or a sense of being stuck get in the way of everyday living.

Hayley focuses on understanding rather than directing, so clients lead the pace and focus of therapy. Hayley draws on four years of counselling experience and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She typically meets people online or by phone, and adapts the format to what fits each person’s schedule.

If someone wants to begin, the first step is a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling a session. Hayley encourages people to start small and see how counselling feels before making longer commitments.

Client‑centred care delivered online

Client‑Centred Therapy focuses on the person rather than the problem. The counsellor offers empathic listening and reflection so the client can make sense of their feelings and decide what they want to change. This approach is useful for anxiety, low mood, parenting stress and feeling stuck.

Hayley uses a gentle, non‑judgemental stance and works collaboratively to find the best approach for each person. Finding the right therapeutic fit is treated as part of the process, with adjustments made based on the client’s goals and preferences. Together they decide what to try and when to change direction.

Online sessions give practical flexibility. Video calls allow face‑to‑face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check‑in is needed. Live chat and text‑based messaging suit people who prefer written reflection or need support between calls. These options make it easier to fit counselling into busy days and different routines.
