Tanya Hend helps people face stress, anxiety, relationship problems and family conflict. She supports those dealing with trauma and abuse, depression, anger and low self-esteem. Tanya also assists with career concerns, bipolar management, coping with life changes, ADHD and compassion fatigue.

She uses straightforward conversation to help people feel less stuck and find practical next steps. Tanya is listed with BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She has three years of experience working directly with clients.

Background and approach

Her way of working is respectful and down-to-earth. Sessions focus on what matters most to the person who comes to therapy. She blends client-centred work with cognitive behavioural therapy.

That means sessions often begin by listening and following the person’s agenda. Then they look at thoughts and behaviours that get in the way and try small, doable changes. Tanya tailors the pace and tools to each person.

Some people prefer talking through feelings and history. Others want practical strategies they can use between sessions. She will agree a plan together and revisit it as needs change.

People can expect clear language, gentle challenge when useful, and collaborative planning. Tanya aims to make the steps forward feel manageable rather than overwhelming.

Therapeutic approaches and online access

Client-centred therapy focuses on the person’s experience. The therapist listens closely, follows the client’s priorities and helps them find their own solutions. This approach is useful for people who need a supportive space to talk things through and feel heard.

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviours affect feelings. It uses simple tools to test unhelpful thoughts and try small behaviour changes. CBT can be helpful for anxiety, low mood and practical coping with life changes.

Tanya will work collaboratively to find what fits best. Figuring out the right approach is part of therapy. She will discuss goals, try methods, and adjust the plan with the client’s input so the work stays relevant and useful.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a longer session is helpful. Phone sessions suit shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for quick updates, reflective writing or when someone prefers typing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping the focus on progress and practical support.
