Noya Hoffman
Practical, goal-focused counselling for daily life
About Noya
Noya Hoffman helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, stress or major life changes. She works with individuals who want clear goals and practical steps. Noya writes short-term, focused plans so people can start seeing change sooner rather than later.
She draws on ten years of experience as a counsellor and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Noya combines different approaches to suit each person.
Background and approach
That can mean looking at thought patterns, exploring past influences, or agreeing small experiments to try between sessions. In sessions she collaborates with people to create a simple formulation and to set realistic goals. Conversations are direct but warm, and practical tools are introduced when useful.
The emphasis is on helping clients gain skills they can use day to day. Noya works with a wide range of issues including mood disorders, panic, ADHD, trauma, workplace stress, relationship and family concerns, eating difficulties and self-harm. She also supports people facing shame, communication problems, avoidant patterns and the strain of caregiving or compassion fatigue.
The approach is flexible rather than one-size-fits-all. Clients can expect a blend of cognitive behavioural ideas, psychodynamic reflection, acceptance and commitment techniques and solution-focused steps. The aim is to make therapy feel relevant and manageable for everyday life.

Therapeutic approaches that suit online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice what matters most to them and take steps towards those values even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear. It is useful for anxiety, depression and people coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, often called CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together and introduces structured techniques to ease symptoms and change unhelpful habits. It tends to suit problems like panic, low mood and workplace stress. Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the heart of sessions and uses empathy and listening to help them feel heard and understood, which can open the way to change.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and tailor methods to fit the person's goals and preferences. That means trying things out together and adjusting the plan if they are not helping.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, study and family life while still using ACT, CBT or client-centred approaches effectively.
