About Noya
Noya Hoffman is a counsellor who helps people facing depression, anxiety and stress. She writes simply and directly, and aims to make therapy practical and focused for those feeling overwhelmed.
She offers short-term, focused work that begins with a clear shared plan. Noya collaborates with each person to build a formulation and set goals that feel useful. Sessions are shaped around what a client needs at that moment rather than a fixed script.
Noya combines approaches to match individual needs, using psychodynamic ideas alongside cognitive behavioural techniques. She explains options and uses evidence-based interventions while offering encouragement and practical strategies.
Her practice emphasises an open, non-judgemental atmosphere so people can speak honestly. She describes the therapeutic relationship as a companionable process rather than a blank slate.
Across ten years of practice she has worked with people from diverse cultural backgrounds and aims to tailor treatment plans to each person's situation. Therapy may include short-term problem solving, exploring patterns that matter, and building skills for day-to-day coping.
People considering therapy are invited to think about what they want to change and to use the initial sessions to shape a plan. Noya frames therapy as one tool among many for improving well-being and managing life’s challenges.
How Noya’s approaches work in online therapy
Noya commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting caught up in them, then focus on actions that match their values; it can help with anxiety, low mood and life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour and teaches practical skills to reduce symptoms and handle everyday problems.Choosing the right approach is part of the early work. Noya will discuss options with each person and help decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That conversation is collaborative and may change as therapy develops.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people use video or phone setups that suit their circumstances, which can help keep sessions consistent alongside work or family commitments.
