Bridget K Hayes
In my practice as a philosophical counsellor, I offer guidance in navigating life’s complexities through the lens of centuries-old philosophical wisdom. With a strong educational foundation with a Bachelor’s degree in Philosophy and Ancient History from Macquarie University and a Master’s degree in Ethics and Political Philosophy from Leiden University, I bring a rich academic background to my practice. Additionally, as a certified RYT 200 Yoga Alliance qualified yoga teacher, I integrate, when relevant, Eastern and Western philosophical traditions to provide clients with a holistic framework for self-exploration and personal growth.
I specialise in addressing a wide range of practical, existential, and ethical concerns, including decision making, personal development, purpose, identity, existential crises, authenticity, values, beliefs, and moral dilemmas. Through introspection and critical reflection, I guide clients in confronting and exploring their beliefs and values in a supportive and intellectually stimulating environment.
Drawing from my experience as an educator, I facilitate transformative philosophical dialogues through collaborative inquiry and Socratic questioning. I believe that moments of crisis and uncertainty can present opportunities for profound personal growth and understanding of self, echoing the sentiment of Sun Tzu: “In the midst of chaos, there is also opportunity.”
My practice offers online and in-person consultations from London, England. As a registered adjunct member of the Association for Philosophical Practice and Advocacy (APPA), I am committed to upholding the highest standards of ethical practice.
