Cora Hilton

I offer both in-person and online sessions. If you're in Bristol, I'm based at The Practice Rooms, with locations in Queen Square, Clifton, Stokes Croft, and Southville.

I currently have availability for both new online and new in-person clients.

I specialise in helping Millennials, Gen. Z, and members of the queer community navigate modern life.

I find it's hard to write about therapy without it sounding…well, like therapy-speak. Which isn't ideal, as it makes it harder for you - the reader - to find someone that feels like a real person, rather than TherapyGPT. So, I’ll do my best to avoid the cliches, and try to give you something more concrete to work with.

I offer practical, down-to-earth therapy that gets modern life. I've been working with Millennials and Gen. Z since I opened my private practice at the end of 2018, which in real terms means I've been with you in the trenches since before Lana Del Rey dropped her Norman Rockwell album. I'm proud to have spent these years working with people with all sorts of diverse lived experience - and as the Lana reference may have hinted, I also have particular knowledge of working with queer stories.

About Me

I'm from Bristol originally, and moved back there in 2024, via a few years in New Zealand, a year in France, and 17 years in London. Before my practice, my working life spanned the charity sector, Film and TV, and a start-up in the wine trade. My academic life has pretty effectively adhered to the archetype of a kid whose nose was semi-permanently in a book - I like the big ideas that come from the smallest details of life.

As an Integrative therapist, I blend lots of different influences into my work, beyond just the world of therapy theory. My experience with languages, literature and philosophy ensures these are frequent presences in my therapy room. Also, as a classic Millennial, I am very interested in pop culture, and firmly believe that even truly terrible reality TV can provide a window into ourselves, in the most surprising ways (it’s not only dusty old therapy tomes that house the important insight into life). Consequently, sessions with me are just as likely to feature Aristotle and Simone de Beauvoir as they are The White Lotus or Love Lies Bleeding.

My specialisms

I’m experienced at working with a wide range of contemporary challenges, including:

anxiety and depression / burnout and perfectionism / relationships, communication and boundaries / family challenges / self-esteem and self-criticism / identity, life direction and meaning / bereavement, failure and loss / LGBTQ+ issues and gender, sex and relationship diversity (GSRD) / parenting and queer parenting experiences / career and workplace difficulties / loneliness, feeling lost, and feeling stuck.

I also work with lots of people who struggle to express what exactly brings them to therapy, but know that something needs to change - sometimes, nothing in particular is 'wrong', but we know things could feel more 'right'.

A little extra

I’m an Accredited member of the BACP, and over nearly a decade in this field, I've worked with all sorts of folk exploring all sorts of challenges. There are some commonalities in who often finds me: I have particular experience of working with creatives, people with a background of high achieving and perfectionism, people with a history of competitive sport, and people navigating IVF and queer parenting journeys.

Outside of sessions, I run a Substack account, in which I write about ‘counsel-culture’: pop culture seen through a therapist’s eyes (spoiler: I’m the therapist). I also play weekly football (not well) with my beloved team, who kindly tolerate my very idiosyncratic on-pitch style.

I’m sometimes joined in sessions by my calico cat Rizzo, who fortunately adheres to the same confidentiality standards that I do.​

Fee information

My fees are on a sliding scale between £65 and £80 per 50-minute session. Within this scale, you choose your own rate.

I offer a reduced fee of £60 for an initial appointment.

I also offer low-cost appointments.

If you'd like to get in touch with me, the best way to do so is via email. I will aim to respond to you by the end of the next working day. I respond to every email I receive, so please check your spam folder if you're waiting to hear from me.

When getting in touch, there is nothing particular that you need to tell me about you - you can say whatever you feel comfortable saying. It would be helpful if you could let me know what your availability for sessions with me would be, so that I can see whether I am able to offer you an initial session at a suitable time and date.

An initial session is a chance for us to speak a little about what's going on for you at the moment; to explore any questions you have about therapy; and to get a gauge on whether we might be a good fit with what you're looking for. I offer a reduced fee of £60 for this appointment.
