About Tetiana
Counsellor Tetiana Nestorenko is a British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy member with four years' experience. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting and depression among other concerns. Sessions are offered in English and she practises in the United Kingdom.
Tetiana uses an integrative counselling style. She draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to look at thinking patterns and coping skills. She also uses attachment-based ideas and psychodynamic thinking to understand early relationships and recurring patterns.
In practice she helps people talk through day-to-day pressures and deeper worries. That can mean looking at unprocessed emotions after loss or abuse. It can also mean practical steps to change thoughts and behaviour for improved day-to-day coping.
She describes work with reparenting and inner child material to examine wounds from childhood and how they affect current life. Tetiana combines this with strategies to manage mood, anxiety and addictive behaviours. Conversations are straightforward and focused on the issues a person brings.
Tetiana notes that sessions are matched to each person's needs and preferences. She asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire before booking a first session. Costs vary with location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.
Therapeutic approaches and online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values and small steps. It helps people notice thoughts and make choices that match what matters to them rather than trying to remove every difficult thought. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at thinking patterns and behaviour. It helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test different ways of behaving to reduce anxiety or low mood.Finding the right way of working is part of the process. The counsellor will work collaboratively to decide which approach fits a person’s needs, goals and preferences. That decision can change as work develops and as different issues come up.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking as the biography does not specify them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work, childcare and travel. They can also allow shorter check-ins when time is limited or let someone choose not to be on camera if that helps. Registered or accredited professionals can use different remote arrangements, so check the available options when you book.
