Tina Elliston, NCPS

Tina Elliston uses a client-centred approach to help people facing stress, anxiety, grief and relationship struggles. She works in a calm, approachable way and aims to keep sessions focused on what you want to achieve. Tina holds NCPS and draws on five years of practice experience in the United Kingdom.

Her work often combines mindful awareness with practical tools from cognitive behavioural methods. She encourages small steps and short exercises that fit into busy lives. Worksheets and brief tasks are used between meetings to build coping skills and notice patterns that keep problems going.

Tina has a background in nursing and midwifery and has carried that experience into supporting people through fertility troubles, pregnancy loss and birth trauma. That practical healthcare history informs how she talks about physical health, menopausal symptoms, and the emotional impact of medical experiences.

She also offers life coaching-style support for career concerns, self-esteem and goal-setting. Sessions can be paced to suit the individual - bite-sized work, longer blocks, or problem-focused plans. The client sets the goals and Tina helps shape the steps to reach them.

Tina works with a broad range of issues including ADHD, bipolar, bereavement, parenting strains, intimacy and sleeping problems. She also helps people dealing with chronic illness, caregiver stress, communication and separation. International clients can be seen and sessions are delivered in English.

How Tina's approaches translate to online therapy

Tina uses Client-Centred Therapy to keep the work focused on what matters to you, listening carefully and helping you set goals. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) provides practical exercises and short tasks that target unhelpful thoughts and routines, which work well in an online format. Emotionally-Focused elements help people name and understand strong feelings so they can improve communication and closeness in relationships.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Tina will discuss your goals and preferences and suggest ways of working that match your needs. Together you can try an approach and adjust it as you go so the sessions stay useful and relevant.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility with video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video suits longer discussions and visual cues, phone calls are useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life or mobility needs, while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
