Sessions are arranged around each person’s needs and practicable goals. Tina encourages reflection and tries to help clients notice small changes that add up. She aims to help people feel steadier, more able to manage day-to-day pressures, and clearer about choices going forward.

Therapeutic approaches you can access online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate actions, and then choose steps that align with personal values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early bonds shape current relationships and helps people repair patterns that cause distance or conflict. It is often used when relationship difficulties, abandonment or attachment issues are present.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the person about their needs, goals and preferences and suggest which method or combination might help most. That recommendation can change as therapy progresses and new priorities emerge.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls are good for full conversations and observing reactions, phone sessions need less bandwidth, live chat can suit a quick check-in and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit work on wellbeing into a busy life and to keep continuity when circumstances change.
