About Tanya
Tanya Perrin is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has 10 years of professional experience. She works with adults in the United Kingdom on stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, anger, self-esteem, intimacy concerns, sleep problems and ADHD. Her practice also notes work related to cancer care and supporting people through serious illness and loss.
Tanya uses a mix of approaches to suit different needs, drawing on client-centred work alongside cognitive behavioural ideas and mindfulness techniques. In sessions she focuses on clear, practical steps as well as the thoughts and feelings that keep someone stuck. She often works with people who are coping with loss, long-term health conditions, or complex emotional responses to past trauma.
Her background includes counselling in healthcare settings and work with young adults in schools and community services. She has also completed Macmillan Cancer Support related certificates and training in palliative care, loss and bereavement. That experience informs how she supports someone dealing with illness or caregiving stress.
In practice she aims to listen carefully and help people identify manageable changes. Conversations tend to include exercises drawn from CBT, grounding and mindfulness, and practical strategies for sleep and stress. Sessions are adjusted over time based on progress and what the person prefers.
For someone feeling behind after university, struggling with early career pressures, or managing difficult relationships in their twenties, Tanya offers steady, straightforward support and problem-focused work.
How Tanya’s approaches work for online sessions
Client-centred work focuses on listening and reflecting. It helps people feel understood and decide what matters to them. This approach is useful when someone is sorting out identity, relationships or the pressures of early adulthood.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety, sleep and work-related stress.
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. It can be useful for anger, intense mood swings and problems with boundaries.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and adjust techniques together. That collaborative process helps shape a plan that fits what the person wants to change.

Phone sessions may be shorter and use less bandwidth, while video sessions allow face-to-face interaction and screen-shared worksheets. Registered or accredited professionals can explain which format suits your schedule and needs.
