About Tanya
Counsellor Tanya Ellis is a BACP and NCPS registered practitioner with seven years' experience. She works in the United Kingdom and helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, depression and issues around self-esteem and eating.
Tanya uses straightforward, conversational sessions. She listens and uses a mix of approaches to suit the person in front of her. Sessions often involve talking through current problems, looking at thoughts and behaviours, and trying out different ways to cope.
Her background includes work in a local agency, a hospice and private practice in Buckinghamshire. That variety means she has experience with end-of-life issues and bereavement alongside everyday worries like job loss and relationship breakdown.
Tanya combines client-centred methods with cognitive behavioural ideas and emotion-focused work. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attachment-based ideas when these fit the issue. This lets her blend practical strategies with time spent on feelings and relationship patterns.
People who come to her may explore family dynamics, communication problems, caregiver stress, control issues, jealousy, or multicultural concerns. She also supports people with obsessive thoughts, panic attacks, addictions and mood disorders.
Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted. Costs vary with location and sessions are managed via a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.
Therapeutic approaches used in online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that matter to them. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and problems where avoidance gets in the way of life. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections. It can help with trust, closeness and repeated relationship difficulties. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and try methods that match a person's needs. Decisions about approach are made together and can change as the work progresses. Please confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter or more flexible check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer not to be on camera or who need quieter surroundings rather than a long commute.Areas of expertise
