Diego Tinte, BACP

Diego Tinte helps people who feel stuck, anxious or overwhelmed by life. He speaks English and Spanish and aims to make talking about hard things straightforward and manageable.

He focuses on common struggles like stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and grief. He also supports people facing relationship or intimacy issues, sleep problems, anger, career worries, and difficulties after trauma or abuse. Diego pays attention to concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues, codependency and body image when they come up.

His practice draws on several approaches to tailor sessions to each person. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviours affect feelings and uses practical techniques to change them. Psychodynamic work looks at patterns from the past that influence current relationships and choices. Attachment-based ideas help when trust and closeness are difficult to manage.

Diego has nine years of experience and is BACP registered, which means he is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. He offers both short and longer-term work depending on what someone needs and prefers.

Sessions can happen by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to fit different routines. The first step is a brief questionnaire to match with him and then book a time that works. Diego aims to provide a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk things through and find clearer ways forward.

How therapy approaches translate to online sessions

Attachment-based work focuses on how early bonds shape current relationships. Online sessions can help identify patterns of closeness, distance and trust, and support changes in how someone relates to others. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, actions and feelings and uses clear exercises and small behavioural experiments to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. Psychodynamic therapy explores recurring themes and emotions that come from earlier experiences and how they show up now in relationships and choices.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and difficulties together and decide which methods fit best. Sometimes sessions combine practical CBT techniques with longer-term psychodynamic reflection, and the plan can change as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility that can make regular work easier. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when schedules or travel make meeting hard. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make it possible to send messages between sessions or have a brief written session when that suits a person better. Together these options help people keep therapy consistent around busy lives.
