About Noya
Noya Hoffman is a counsellor who works with people mainly struggling with depression, anxiety and stress. She writes in a straightforward way and focuses on short-term, practical therapy that helps clients find direction and relief. Noya uses conversation and clear goals to make sessions feel manageable and purposeful.
She collaborates with each person to build a simple plan. That includes making a shared formulation, setting realistic goals, and choosing tasks to try between sessions.
Background and approach
Noya combines different methods so the plan fits the person rather than forcing one technique. Her practice draws on psychodynamic ideas alongside cognitive behavioural approaches. This means she looks at patterns that developed over time as well as current thoughts and behaviours.
She uses tools from those approaches to help people understand and change unhelpful cycles. Noya aims to offer a warm, non-judgemental space where clients can speak openly. She focuses on building trust so people can talk about difficult feelings like shame, guilt or low self-worth.
The sessions are meant to feel collaborative rather than directive. Over ten years of work have shaped her practical style and focus on real-life problems. Clients can expect short-term, goal-focused work that also leaves room to explore deeper issues when needed.
Noya frames therapy as self-care and positions herself as a companion on the path to better mental health.

Online support
Noya will work with the client to find which approach, or combination of approaches, fits best. She treats this as a collaborative process - goals, preferences and what feels helpful guide the choices. Over the first sessions she and the client shape a simple plan and try methods that can be adjusted as things progress.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging makes it easier to fit sessions into busy lives. Video is useful when visual cues matter, phone calls use less bandwidth, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging can be helpful for ongoing reflection between sessions. These options aim to offer flexibility and continuity so therapy can be practical and accessible.
