Tania Danielle Thacker
Practical integrative counselling for trauma and addictions
About Tania
Tania Danielle Thacker uses an integrative counselling approach to help people manage stress, anxiety, addictions and trauma. She is presented as approachable and pragmatic, and she draws on several ways of working to match each person's needs. Tania is registered as NCPS which is included with her professional details.
She has four years of experience supporting people with trauma, post-traumatic stress, and disordered eating such as binge eating. Tania also works with addictive behaviours and problems related to alcohol or drugs.
Background and approach
Her practice includes work on self-esteem, body image and social anxiety. Tania blends practical talking therapies with body-focused and mindfulness-based methods. That means sessions might include noticing physical reactions, learning grounding techniques, and practising simple exercises that reduce overwhelm.
She also uses cognitive strategies to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and to build new responses. Her background includes psychodynamic ideas alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing in her toolkit. Hypnotherapy and mindfulness approaches are also part of what she offers.
This variety helps her adapt to different problems and preferences. Tania aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk through their concerns. She can support clients working through life changes, feelings of shame or guilt, and struggles with life purpose or midlife transition.
The focus is on practical steps and steady progress.

How therapeutic approaches work online with practical methods
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking small actions that fit those values. It uses mindfulness and behavioural steps to reduce avoidance and build a life you care about.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, helps you spot unhelpful thinking patterns and test them with simple exercises. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and some eating concerns because it offers clear tools to change thoughts and behaviours.
Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing, EMDR, works with processing distressing memories and the reactions they trigger in the body. It can be useful for trauma and post-traumatic stress when other techniques have not fully reduced the intensity of memories.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will help you decide which methods to try based on your goals, preferences and how you respond. This is a collaborative process and can change as therapy progresses.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video is good for a fuller conversation and visual connection, phone can fit into a short break, and chat or messaging lets you reflect in writing. These options help people fit therapy around work, family life and travel while keeping a steady course of support.
