Tania Danielle Thacker, NCPS

Tania Danielle Thacker uses an integrative counselling approach that draws on several well known therapies. She works to make sessions straightforward and practical. Tania aims to create a calm space where people can talk about difficult feelings without judgement. She holds the NCPS credential and practices in the United Kingdom.

Tania spends time understanding how past experiences and current patterns connect. She uses cognitive behavioural techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts and build different habits. Mindfulness practices and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy help people notice thoughts and choose values-based action instead of reacting on autopilot.

For trauma and post-traumatic stress concerns she includes trauma-focused methods and body-oriented work to reduce intense reactions. She also brings in hypnotherapy and EMDR-informed ways of working when appropriate to help process distressing memories and reduce their hold on daily life.
Tania has four years of professional experience supporting people with stress and anxiety, addictions, eating and body-image concerns, low self-esteem and life changes. She also addresses issues such as abandonment, attachment worries, dissociation, guilt and shame, impulsivity, and a search for life purpose.

Her sessions are practical and collaborative. Clients can expect a mix of talking, noticing bodily signals, simple exercises to try between sessions and coaching-style check-ins to track progress. The aim is steady, manageable change rather than quick fixes.

How chosen approaches work online

The practice uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try small behavioural experiments to test alternatives; this is useful for anxiety, depression and unhelpful habits. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is offered to clarify values and teach simple mindfulness and acceptance skills so people can act toward what matters despite uncomfortable feelings. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used in a trauma-focused way to reduce the intensity of distressing memories and reactions when that method fits the client’s needs.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and try methods collaboratively, checking what helps and what does not. Sessions can combine talking, mindful practices, brief exercises and trauma-focused techniques so the plan evolves with the person’s goals and preferences.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face interaction and guided exercises. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging offer flexible, lower-intensity contact and can suit people who prefer writing to speaking. These options help make therapy more accessible around work, travel and daily life routines.
