Hello there, I'm Hanna Seely, an integrative counsellor at Lasting Light Counselling.

I specialise in working with teenagers, having worked in the education sector for a decade across various secondary schools within Nottinghamshire. I also use my experience to help adults, particularly with childhood trauma, shame, relationship problems/ family issues, and struggles with mental health and neurodiversity. I started off in the education sector as a teaching assistant in a secondary school within the SEN team. I have since counselled many clients with neurodiversity (especially autism and ADHD), so I have a good understanding of neurodivergence and mental health. Trauma, relationships, and shame are topics I care about deeply, having struggled with them myself at times, so I have a sincere passion for helping others with these difficulties, too.
