Juliette Hayden, BACP

Juliette Hayden is an insured UK-based integrative therapist with 15 years of professional experience, combining a nursing background and formal training in therapeutic counselling to support people through difficult life challenges.

She qualified as a nurse in 1993 and worked in the NHS in a variety of roles before completing a BSc (Hons) degree in Therapeutic Counselling. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), which is the professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the United Kingdom.

Alongside her clinical work, she volunteers for a UK charity that supports victims of sexual trauma and domestic abuse, and she offers support at her local hospice in Salisbury to people with a terminal diagnosis and their families. These roles reflect a longstanding commitment to working with trauma, bereavement, and end-of-life issues.

Her lived experience as a parent of four children, two of whom are autistic, informs a particular interest in supporting carers of autistic children and understanding the everyday rewards and challenges of neurodiverse family life. Having experienced chronic pain herself, she also explores the brain-body connection in her work and supports clients who are managing chronic illness and persistent pain.

Juliette works with people facing trauma and abuse, grief and loss, anxiety, depression, stress, loneliness, motivation and self-esteem difficulties, relationship breakdown, and the emotional demands of caring for others. As an integrative practitioner she draws on a range of therapeutic approaches and adapts them to each person’s needs, aiming to create an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can develop understanding, build coping strategies, and move toward the changes they seek.
