Tanya Perrin, BACP

Tanya Perrin offers a warm, client-centred approach that puts each person first. She combines person-focused listening with practical tools so people can manage stress, anxiety, trauma, grief and anger. Tanya uses straightforward language and steady support to help people take the next step toward feeling better.

With ten years of practice in the United Kingdom, Tanya brings a range of experience to sessions. She has supported people facing cancer, carers under strain, and those coping with chronic pain or long-term illness. Her background also includes work with people dealing with attachment and abandonment issues, breakup and separation, and difficulties with self‑esteem and intimacy-related concerns.

Tanya draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour. She also uses Dialectical Behaviour Therapy skills for emotional regulation and mindfulness practices to build present-moment awareness and reduce distress. These approaches sit alongside a client-centred focus, where the therapist follows the person’s lead and tailors the pace to individual needs.

People looking for practical skills will find exercises for sleeping difficulties, managing anger, and coping with grief. Sessions can include grounding techniques, mindfulness exercises, and strategies to improve communication and boundaries. Tanya aims to translate therapeutic ideas into everyday actions.

She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, listed as BACP. Tanya offers sessions in English and works with people internationally using a range of online formats. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is used to pair people with the right support.

Approaches you can use online with Tanya

Client‑centred therapy focuses on listening and following the person's lead. It helps people feel understood and decide what matters most in sessions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect and gives practical exercises to change habits that cause distress. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, or DBT, offers skills for managing strong emotions and improving how people handle conflict and stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about their goals, needs and preferences and then suggest approaches to try. This is a collaborative process and the plan can change as therapy progresses to match what helps most.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text‑based messaging. Video calls let people use face‑to‑face conversation from elsewhere, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and suit shorter check‑ins. Live chat and text messaging can fit around busy days and make it easier to keep in touch between longer sessions. These options give flexibility and make it simpler to find a time and format that fits daily life.
