About Tiziana

Counsellor Tiziana Barton is a BACP member with 19 years' experience offering counselling in the United Kingdom. She supports people with concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, addiction and stress. She also works with issues around ADHD, bipolar, eating and sleeping problems, and parenting strain.

Tiziana uses an integrative approach that draws on several recognised therapies. She describes counselling as a way to reconnect with parts of yourself that can feel lost after difficult childhoods or traumatic events. Sessions focus on understanding current symptoms and the underlying patterns that can keep them going. She aims to help people gain new awareness and fresh perspectives on their situation.

Her work pays attention to attachment and emotional experience, and she also uses cognitive and skills-based methods where useful. That means talking about feelings and relationships alongside more practical techniques for coping and managing stress. The emphasis is on what happens between counsellor and client in sessions as the basis for change.

Tiziana writes that losses such as bereavement, illness, redundancy or relationship breakdown are common causes of distress she helps people address. She also mentions compassion fatigue and issues linked to adoption, ageing, chronic illness and caregiving. When needed she will work on communication, codependency and commitment concerns.

She presents counselling as short-term or problem-focused work where appropriate, and as deeper psychotherapy when more exploration is wanted. To begin, readers are invited to make first contact and ask questions to see if there is a good connection.

How her approaches work in online counselling

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It looks at how people relate, where trust can be hard, and helps with relationship and intimacy issues as well as anxiety and grief.

Client-Centred Therapy places emphasis on being listened to without judgement. It helps people to reflect, gain self-awareness and make sense of their emotions, often useful with depression and life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical strategies to change unhelpful thinking and behaviour. It can be used alongside attachment or emotional work to manage symptoms like panic, low mood and stress.

Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then agree a way forward together. That discussion helps shape which techniques are used and how sessions are run.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as this profile does not list them. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a working week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people choose settings that are quieter or less visually demanding, which can help them focus on the work.
