About Hayley
Hayley Mcgregor is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who aims to help people struggling with stress, anxiety and depression. She offers a calm and respectful space to talk through what feels difficult right now. Hayley uses a flexible approach so sessions are shaped around each person's needs and pace.
She trained and works with a blend of counselling methods rather than a single model. That allows her to draw on different ways of working as conversations uncover what helps most.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on understanding current problems, building coping skills and noticing patterns that keep difficulties going. Hayley places emphasis on empathy and patience. She puts effort into listening and creating a non-judgemental atmosphere so people feel heard.
The aim is to help clients reconnect with strengths and practical steps they can use between sessions. Her practice supports people facing grief, relationship worries, parenting strain, career stress, addiction concerns and long-term health issues. She also offers help around self-esteem, attachment difficulties and compassion fatigue.
People affected by ADHD, neurodiversity or chronic illness can bring those concerns into therapy. Hayley holds BACP registration, which is noted in her professional details. She has around three years of experience working with adults in the UK.
Sessions are offered in English and include video calls, phone, live chat and text-based messaging.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will discuss your goals and preferences and together you will decide which methods to try. This collaborative process means techniques can be adjusted as you progress and new priorities emerge.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues. Phone sessions work well when a quieter audio-only check-in is needed or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins, step-by-step guidance, or people who prefer typing over speaking. These options provide flexibility to fit therapy around work, family and day-to-day life.
