About Tanya

Tanya Hend helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, family conflict, trauma and abuse, depression, anger, low self-esteem, career concerns, bipolar challenges, ADHD, coping with life changes, compassion fatigue, and coaching needs. She works in a straightforward, respectful way and aims to make starting therapy feel manageable.

Tanya uses a person-centred style that focuses on listening and understanding each person’s experience. She combines that with practical techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy, so conversations often move from understanding feelings to trying small changes.

02

How Tanya works

Sessions are tailored to each person’s situation and goals. She holds BACP registration, which is shown as BACP on her profile. Tanya has three years of professional experience and is based in the United Kingdom.

She works with people who prefer sessions in English or Arabic and accepts international clients. Therapy with Tanya usually begins by talking about the most pressing concerns and agreeing objectives for the coming weeks. Treatment plans are adjusted as progress is made and as priorities change.

People can expect a calm, respectful tone and clear suggestions for coping skills and behaviour changes. Appointments can be arranged as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text messaging. Tanya asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling, which helps plan the first session and choose the right session format.

Online support options

Approaches and online therapy options that fit your life

Client-centred therapy focuses on understanding each person’s experience. The therapist listens with empathy and follows the client’s pace so sessions feel respectful and personalised. This approach can help when someone needs space to make sense of feelings and choices.

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours connect. It uses practical exercises and simple techniques to reduce anxiety, manage mood swings, and change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often useful for stress, anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes.

Deciding which approach to use is a shared process. The therapist will work together with each person to choose methods that match their goals, comfort and preferences. That may mean starting with listening and then adding CBT tools, or adjusting the balance over time as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to fit sessions into busy lives. Video calls let people work face to face from elsewhere, phone sessions require less bandwidth, live chat is useful for brief check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These formats make it easier to keep therapy consistent while juggling work, family and other demands.

A practical next step

Write down two things you would want to be different in six months. That is the most useful thing to bring to a first session, whoever it is with. If you would rather start now than keep reading, online sessions are the quickest route.
