About Tuesday
Tuesday Benfield is a counsellor who aims to help people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief or relationship strain. She presents as down to earth and approachable, and offers straightforward support for everyday struggles. Her style is practical and open, suited to someone who wants a calm person to talk things through with.
She brings four years of direct counselling experience alongside broader work in therapeutic services. Her background includes roles in bereavement support and work with people affected by domestic violence, abuse and addiction.
How Tuesday works
She has experience in family liaison and emotional support coordination that informs how she listens and responds. Her practice uses an integrative approach. That means she draws from several therapies to match what each person needs.
Common tools she uses include cognitive behavioural techniques, attachment-focused thinking and acceptance-based ideas, plus a client-centred way of working that puts the person and the relationship first. Sessions aim to be non-judgemental and practical. Tuesday helps people spot patterns in thoughts and behaviour, and then try small changes to feel less stuck.
She also offers longer-term work when deeper exploration is helpful. Tuesday works within professional standards set by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown by her BACP credential. She offers online sessions for people across the United Kingdom and internationally, and runs both short-term and longer-term therapy depending on what a person needs.

How therapeutic approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people focus on what matters most and take small, values-based steps despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and patterns that leave someone feeling stuck. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current ways of relating and can help with intimacy, abandonment and communication problems by exploring patterns and building new ways of connecting. Client-Centred Therapy puts the person and the therapeutic relationship at the centre, offering a supportive space to talk things through and find your own solutions.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through options, try different methods and agree what feels most helpful based on the person’s needs and goals. This collaborative process makes it easier to adapt work as things change.
Online sessions offer flexibility in how people access therapy. Video calls are useful for a near face-to-face experience, phone work can fit into a busy day and needs less bandwidth, while live chat or text-based messaging suits short check-ins or for people who prefer not to use audio or video. These options help people arrange therapy around work, family or other commitments and make regular contact more achievable.
