Hi, I’m Hannah

Dr Hannah Barnes

HCPC Registered Clinical Psychologist & Accredited EMDR Practitioner

A compassionate, evidence-based approach

As a Clinical Psychologist, I am trained to understand and support a range of emotional difficulties, including anxiety, low mood, self-esteem difficulties, stress, burnout, and trauma.

My work is grounded in evidence-based psychological therapies, using approaches we know can help people find greater emotional balance and live more meaningful, valued lives.

I have experience working across the NHS, third sector organisations, and private practice.

I currently work both in the NHS as a Senior Clinical Psychologist, and in private practice. While I support a wide range of difficulties, I have a particular interest in working with trauma — including childhood experiences such as abuse and neglect — as well as supporting people with the psychological impact of physical health conditions.

Get in touch How I work

How I can help

You might be feeling anxious, overwhelmed, self-critical, or impacted by experiences from your past. You may be coping with the effects of illness, stress, or a sense that life looks fine on the outside while something still feels difficult underneath.

If any of this resonates, you are not alone — and support is available.

Anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck in your thoughts
Highly self-critical or lacking confidence
Affected by things that have happened in your past
Impacted by a physical health condition or illness
Feeling that life looks “fine” on the outside, but something still feels missing

How I work

I offer a confidential, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where you can begin to make sense of your experiences and move forward.

I am trained in a range of evidence-based therapies and integrate these approaches to create therapy that is tailored to you and your individual needs.

I offer both short-term and longer-term therapy, depending on the kind of support you are looking for.
