About Tanya
Tanya Perrin is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with ten years' experience. She works in the United Kingdom and supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, self-esteem and intimacy-related concerns. Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients.
Tanya draws on client-centred practice alongside cognitive behavioural and dialectical behaviour approaches. She uses mindfulness, existential reflection and practical grounding techniques during sessions. These methods are used to help people manage overwhelming feelings, reduce anxiety, and rebuild routines after loss or illness.
Her work includes counselling for people affected by cancer and palliative care needs. She has offered support in community and school settings and has experience speaking with psychiatric services about clients with complex needs. Practical coping strategies and paced conversations are common parts of her sessions.
Tanya also addresses issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, dissociation, communication problems and problems with control. She uses elements of solution-focused work and employment-focused interventions where relevant to day-to-day functioning. Sessions may include skills practice, problem-solving and reflection on values.
Sessions begin with a short assessment to identify immediate goals and the most relevant methods. Tanya explains options and works collaboratively to shape the plan. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session using the website options.

How Tanya applies methods to online work
Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person in front of the counsellor. It helps people feel heard and clarifies their own goals so practical steps can follow. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches skills to shift unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, sleep problems and low mood. Dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT) supplies concrete skills for managing strong emotions and improving distress tolerance, useful for anger, self-harm tendencies and emotional overwhelm.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Tanya will review needs, goals and preferences together and suggest which methods to try first. That plan can be adjusted as sessions progress and as different skills are tested in everyday life.
Confirm the therapist's current session options before booking because formats were not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around daily life, for example shorter check-ins during a lunch break or sessions that avoid travel time. It can also let people use audio-only conversations when video would be difficult, or focus on skill practice and worksheets between meetings. Registered or accredited professionals generally adapt materials so therapy can be practical and work alongside other commitments.
