How Tanya works
Sessions focus on practical steps that fit into everyday life, such as improving sleep routines, managing panic, or finding ways to cope after trauma or loss. She also helps people who are dealing with attention difficulties, addictions, identity matters, or relationship strain. Her background includes three years of professional work in counselling settings across the UK.
That experience includes supporting people facing a wide range of mental health challenges, from obsessive thoughts and hoarding to bipolar difficulties and self-harm. Tanya draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to shape the work she does with each person. Tanya aims to make sessions feel collaborative.
She invites clients to pace the work and to choose topics that matter most to them. Conversations include practical strategies, gentle reflection and planning for real-life changes. For people who prefer flexible contact, Tanya offers a mix of session formats.
She explains the process simply and helps newcomers set realistic steps to move forward.

How therapeutic approaches work online
Tanya uses evidence-based approaches that focus on clear techniques and practical outcomes. One common strand is structured skills work that teaches breathing, grounding and planning exercises to reduce anxiety and improve sleep; these techniques are useful for stress, panic and disturbed rest. Another strand emphasises trauma-informed listening and stabilisation skills that help people manage intense memories and build safety in daily routines; this helps when someone is coping with abuse or loss.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Tanya treats this as a joint process and will help clients decide which techniques fit their goals, pace and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts the focus as progress is made or new needs arise.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for this way of working. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues are helpful. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer written reflection or that fit around busy days. These options make it easier to arrange regular sessions and to use therapeutic tools between meetings.
