Tanya is a registered member of the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and practices within the BACP Ethical Framework.

She welcomes contact from anyone feeling stuck or facing difficulties and looks forward to the potential of working together.

Integrative approaches and flexible online support

Tanya works as an integrative counsellor, meaning she blends different evidence-based techniques to suit individual needs. Integrative counselling focuses on understanding a person’s whole situation and selecting methods that best support recovery, emotional regulation, relationships, and personal growth. Sessions may be supported with practical tools and worksheets that encourage reflection and learning between meetings.

In practice, Tanya applies tailored, evidence-informed methods to address issues such as substance use, anxiety, trauma, depression, and relationship difficulties. She adapts the pace and focus according to each client’s goals, helping to build resilience and practical coping strategies in a collaborative way. Determining the right therapeutic approach is part of the process - Tanya works together with clients to identify what feels most helpful based on their needs and preferences.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different lifestyles and schedules. These remote formats make it easier to access consistent support without travel, and they allow registered professionals like Tanya to provide ongoing care that fits around daily commitments.
