About Tanya
Counsellor and member of BACP with three years' experience, Tanya Hend helps people with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, anger, self-esteem, career challenges, bipolar, ADHD and compassion fatigue. She offers sessions in English and Arabic and accepts international clients in the United Kingdom context.
Tanya works in a conversational, person-centred way. She listens to what matters to each client and uses that to guide sessions. She also uses practical techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy, where thoughts and behaviours are looked at together to reduce distress.
Her approach is straightforward. Sessions focus on what the person wants to change. She talks through coping strategies, ways to manage emotions and steps to tackle problems that come up between meetings.
Tanya explains options and agreements at the start so people know what to expect. She uses the BACP registration when describing her professional standing. Fees vary with location and she uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.
Sessions are arranged after a short matching questionnaire and a first booking step. Tanya aims to work with practical concerns such as workplace stress, managing mood swings, or dealing with past abuse, keeping conversations clear and goal-focused.
How Tanya uses client-centred work and CBT in online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and helping the client lead the conversation. The counsellor reflects what is said, checks understanding and helps clients find their own solutions. This approach suits people who want a space to talk through feelings and make decisions about next steps.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses simple skills and short exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviours. This can help with anxiety, depression, stress and practical problems at work or in relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tanya will discuss goals and try different ways of working together to see what fits best. She treats the choice of methods as a shared decision based on what the client needs and prefers.
Confirm the session formats available before booking, as the profile does not list specific modes. Many people find online counselling helps fit sessions around work and family life. It can make regular check-ins easier, reduce travel time and allow shorter or longer sessions when needed. Ask about arrangements, timings and any practical needs when you book so sessions can be planned to suit everyday life.
