Tina Dale uses practical talking therapies to help people manage stress, anxiety, grief and relationship strain. She is straightforward and calm in sessions and focuses on what matters most to each client. Tina holds the NCPS credential and works from the United Kingdom.
Tina helps people untangle the effects of trauma and abuse, and supports those coping with depression, bipolar mood swings, addictions and low self-esteem. She also works with issues around intimacy, sexual identity, parenting pressures, eating and sleeping problems, and performance or career anxiety.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to make everyday life feel more manageable. Her approach combines Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioural ideas and emotionally focused listening. That means people look at thoughts and behaviours, notice what matters to them, and practise small changes that fit their life.
Attachment-based ideas guide conversations about how past relationships shape current ones. Tina has four years of clinical experience and uses a client-centred style that keeps the conversation grounded. She pays attention to practical steps as well as the emotional work that often sits underneath problems.
This helps people move from feeling stuck to taking steady steps forward. She also supports people dealing with caregiving stress, chronic illness, adoption and foster care issues, abandonment, autism-related concerns, and communication or control difficulties. Work with Tina is tailored to the person’s needs and paced to their readiness to change.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice their thoughts and choose actions that match their values. Online sessions with this approach focus on identifying what matters, developing small habits and practising acceptance exercises that suit everyday life. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. In remote sessions clients work on practical strategies such as thought records, behavioural experiments and sleep or activity plans that can be reviewed between meetings. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tina will discuss different methods and tailor a plan based on goals, preferences and how someone responds in early sessions. This is a collaborative process where the therapist and client pick techniques that feel useful and realistic. Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy lives or mobility limits. Video calls allow visual connection for deeper conversation, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier for short check-ins, and live chat or text messaging suit brief updates or those who prefer writing. These options make it simpler to maintain continuity of care and practise new skills between appointments.What kinds of problems does Tina focus on?
