About
Eleanor Hart
Integrative psychotherapist and founder of Willow Counselling, working with adults experiencing anxiety, low mood and life transitions.
My story
I founded Willow Counselling with a simple aim: to offer a calm, unhurried space where adults can talk openly about what is on their mind. I have worked as a psychotherapist for over eight years, first in NHS and charity settings and now in private practice in London and online.
My approach is integrative, which means I draw on several therapeutic models rather than following a single method. Depending on what you bring, our work might include exploring patterns from the past, noticing what is happening in the present or developing practical ways to cope. I pay close attention to the relationship between us, as feeling safe and understood is at the heart of good therapy.
I work with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, grief and periods of change. Outside the therapy room, I enjoy walking on Hampstead Heath, reading and spending time with my family.

My approach
How I work
Collaborative
We work together on what matters most to you. You set the direction, and I offer support, perspective and gentle questions along the way.
Unhurried
Sessions move at your own pace, with no pressure to find answers quickly. There is always room to pause, reflect and come back to things when you’re ready.
Confidential
In our first session we agree clear rules on confidentiality and talk through the rare situations where it has limits. You will always know where you stand.
