About Tanya
Tanya Ellis is a counsellor registered with BACP and NCPS in the United Kingdom with seven years' experience. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, addictions and concerns about identity including LGBT issues.
Tanya uses a mix of client-centred and cognitive behavioural methods alongside attachment work and emotionally-focused techniques. Sessions focus on practical steps people can use day to day, and on understanding patterns that keep problems repeating. She draws on approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attachment-based ideas when they suit a person's goals.
People come to her for help after losses, during big life changes, when relationships are strained, or when panic, obsessions or low mood get in the way of everyday life. She also helps with caregiver stress, communication problems, issues around control, guilt and shame, and multicultural concerns.
In conversations she aims to be straightforward and respectful, and to listen for what matters in someone's life right now. Sessions typically combine talking with clear strategies and experiments to try between meetings.
Tanya has worked in a local agency, a hospice and in private practice, which informs her experience with end-of-life and bereavement matters. She accepts clients from the UK and international clients who want to work in English.

Therapeutic approaches used in remote work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without getting lost in them, then choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, avoidance and adjustments after big life changes.Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and how early connections shape current trust and closeness. It can be helpful for relationship strain, attachment issues and feelings of isolation.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to pick methods that fit a person's goals, preferences and day-to-day life. That choice can change as progress is made and new issues appear.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking as they are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings around work, childcare or travel because sessions often require less time for commuting. It can also allow shorter check-ins when people need a brief update, or audio-only meetings when video is difficult due to bandwidth or wanting a lower-key option. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises and between-session tasks so therapy fits into everyday routines.
