Tanya Ellis supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strains, grief, depression and addiction. She also helps with family conflict, self-esteem problems, eating concerns and coping with major life changes. Tanya works in a calm, straightforward way so parents can quickly see what to expect from sessions.
Tanya uses a mix of talking therapies that focus on what matters most to each person. She listens without judgement and helps people identify small, practical steps that ease day-to-day pressure.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to make difficult feelings easier to understand and manage. Over seven years she has worked in a hospice, a local agency and independent practice in the United Kingdom. Those settings have informed her approach to grief, end-of-life care and supporting people through loss.
She is listed with BACP and NCPS, which are given here as credentials. Tanya draws on several therapy styles, including cognitive behavioural techniques and emotionally focused work. She also uses client-centred and attachment-based ideas to help people explore patterns in relationships and communication.
The exact mix is chosen together with each person. Her sessions are straightforward and practical. Tanya will talk through goals, try simple experiments between sessions, and review what helps.
New clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions to suit their needs. This keeps the first steps quick and clear.
How Tanya’s approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and reconnect with their values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and finding a clearer direction in life. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current bonds and communication, helping people improve closeness and trust. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s own experience and pace, offering a supportive space to make sense of feelings and choices.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Tanya will discuss what matters to you, try methods that fit your goals, and adjust as you go. That way the direction of therapy is a shared decision rather than a fixed plan from the start.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that feels helpful, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can work when you prefer not to be on camera, and live chat or text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options offer flexibility so people can use the way that best fits their routine and needs.
