Tanya Chapman, BACP

Tanya Chapman is a UK-based therapist with three years of professional experience, offering empathetic support for people navigating stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and depression. She is registered with the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which reflects her commitment to recognised professional standards and ongoing development.

Tanya works with a broad range of concerns including ADHD, addictions, relationship and family difficulties, eating and sleeping problems, self-esteem challenges, bipolar conditions, and issues affecting LGBT clients. Her additional focus includes complex presentations such as autism and Asperger syndrome, personality-related difficulties, obsessive-compulsive patterns, hoarding, self-harm, sexual assault and abuse, and young adult issues.

In session, Tanya aims to create an open, nonjudgmental atmosphere where thoughts and feelings can be explored safely. She supports clients to build coping strategies, process difficult experiences, and identify practical changes that align with their goals. Recognising that starting therapy takes courage, Tanya offers compassionate guidance from the first contact onward and works collaboratively to tailor the therapeutic process to each person’s needs and circumstances.

Evidence-Based Techniques and Flexible Online Support

Tanya uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills to manage symptoms and improve daily functioning. For example, she employs structured strategies that help people reduce worry, build coping skills for anxiety, and develop routines for better sleep and mood regulation. These approaches are useful for stress, anxiety, ADHD-related challenges, and mood concerns.

She also works with trauma-informed principles that prioritise safety and paced processing of difficult experiences. This helps people affected by trauma, abuse, or grief to make sense of what happened and to strengthen their resilience over time.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Tanya collaborates with each client to identify methods that fit their needs, goals, and personal preferences, and she adapts her plan as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier for people to access regular support from registered professionals without needing to travel, and they allow therapy to continue even when life circumstances change.
