About Tuesday
Counsellor Tuesday Benfield is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with four years' experience. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, self esteem, ADHD, addictions and relationship concerns, among other areas listed in her practice. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients from the United Kingdom base.
Tuesday aims to keep conversations direct and easy to follow. She uses a mix of approaches and will work with people to focus on current feelings, thoughts and behaviours. That can include practical steps and talking through past experiences that continue to affect day-to-day life.
Her background includes work in bereavement support and roles providing emotional support and family liaison. She has experience in services that addressed domestic violence, abuse and addiction, and has worked within therapeutic services attached to the NHS system.
Tuesday describes herself as an integrative counsellor. She draws on person-centred ideas to focus on the counselling relationship, and on cognitive behavioural methods to address here-and-now patterns. Mindfulness and attachment-based ideas also inform her way of working when these fit a person's needs.
She offers both short- and long-term therapy and continues professional development through workshops and seminars. People who come to her can expect a practical, conversational style that looks at coping strategies alongside exploring past and present issues.
How her approaches work in online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting carried away by them. It focuses on what matters to you and on small actions that fit those values. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours connect and teaches practical ways to change unhelpful patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships affect current trust and closeness, useful when intimacy or abandonment issues are present.Finding the right approach is usually a team effort. The counsellor will discuss what feels most useful and try different ways of working if needed. Sessions are collaborative and guided by the client's goals and preferences rather than a fixed formula.
The biography does not list specific online formats, so please check the available session types before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work, family and travel. They also allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited, and for choosing quieter surroundings or not being on camera if that helps. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly use these options to help people keep therapy manageable alongside daily life.
