Juliette Hayden

Juliette Hayden is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 15 years of professional experience. She trained as a nurse and later completed a BSc (Hons) in Therapeutic Counselling. Juliette is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, listed as BACP, and combines her healthcare background with counselling skills to support people through difficult times.

She draws on a range of therapeutic ideas to suit each person. Sessions are approached with warmth and without judgement. Juliette helps people talk through anxiety, depression, grief and the after-effects of trauma and abuse. She also supports those dealing with chronic pain, long-term illness, stress and low self-esteem.

Juliette has personal and volunteer experience that informs her work. She has worked in the NHS in several roles and volunteers with a UK charity supporting people affected by sexual trauma and domestic abuse. She also volunteers at a local hospice to support people with terminal diagnoses and their loved ones.

Her family life includes parenting four children, two of whom are autistic, which has led to an interest in supporting carers of autistic children. That lived experience shapes her practical understanding of daily challenges and relationship strain.

In sessions she aims to create an open, empathic space where people can share thoughts and feelings. She works collaboratively to find coping strategies and ways to manage anger, sleep and eating concerns, and to regain a sense of direction after life changes.

How these approaches translate to online counselling

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationships and how early bonds shape feelings and reactions. Online sessions can help people notice patterns in relationships and try new ways of connecting and expressing needs.

Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of sessions and relies on listening, reflection and acceptance. It helps when someone needs a calm space to make sense of feelings and to build confidence in their own choices.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and develops practical steps to change unhelpful patterns. It can be useful for anxiety, anger management and sleep or eating difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss the options, consider the client's goals and try methods that fit the person's needs and preferences. This is a collaborative process and approaches can be adjusted as progress is made.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so check the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around family life, reduce travel time and allow quicker check-ins on difficult days. Some formats may also suit lower bandwidth or shorter time slots, which can help maintain support through busy routines.
