About Neil
Neil Hall is a counsellor registered with the BACP and NCPS with seven years of practice in the United Kingdom. He works with adults on problems such as stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, grief, sleeping issues and anger. He also supports people dealing with trauma, career concerns, LGBT matters and coping with life changes.
He uses a mix of evidence-informed approaches. In sessions he talks through what is happening now, looks at patterns that keep problems going, and helps people decide on small, practical steps to try between meetings. His style draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client-Centred methods to keep conversations clear and action-focused.
Neil’s background includes work across multiple settings over seven years. That experience has involved supporting people through crisis and slower adjustments alike, and learning what tends to help in everyday life. He aims to make sessions straightforward and useful rather than full of jargon.
Common themes he addresses include communication problems, guilt, isolation, sexual difficulties, panic attacks and issues around identity and prejudice. He also offers coaching-style support for life purpose and career questions. Practical strategies for managing anger and preventing escalation are a frequent focus.
Sessions are conducted in English and Neil accepts international clients. Costs vary with location and are billed through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and choose actions based on values rather than urges. It is useful when anger links to avoidance, shame or stuck patterns. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at thought-behaviour links and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful responses. It is often used for anger that shows up as rumination, impulsive reactions or panic symptoms.Finding the right fit is part of the work. Neil will talk with each person about goals, what feels realistic, and which methods make sense. Together they pick approaches and short exercises that suit the individual’s needs and day-to-day life, and review what helps as therapy continues.
The practical advantages of online sessions include fitting meetings around work and family commitments and keeping progress going when travel is difficult. The exact session formats are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to try short check-ins, use audio-only if bandwidth is limited, or schedule appointments at times that suit a busy day. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises and homework to work well in remote sessions, helping clients practise calmer responses to anger in everyday situations.
