Dr. Tania Muthen
Compassionate psychologist offering practical strategies
About Tania
Dr. Tania Muthen is a Chartered consultant psychologist registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC). She has 16 years of clinical experience supporting people through mood and anxiety problems.
Her work blends practical therapy with clear steps people can try between sessions. She uses a mix of approaches to build a plan with each person. Much of her practice focuses on depression, bipolar disorder, stress and anxiety.
She also helps with anger, panic attacks and relationship difficulties.
Background and approach
Her background includes roles in hospitals and medical settings. She has worked in adult oncology, in medical practice supporting people with new diagnoses, and as a consultant psychologist in a personal hospital. She spent more than a decade leading a department in a government hospital in South Africa.
In therapy she aims to help people understand patterns of thinking and behaviour that keep problems going. Sessions often include learning skills for managing strong emotions and testing out different ways of responding to stress. The emphasis is on practical strategies that fit everyday life.
She supports work on issues such as guilt, shame, forgiveness, isolation and rebuilding identity after separation or loss. People can expect a collaborative approach that looks at past experiences and present challenges to find realistic changes. Therapy can involve short-term focused work or longer exploration depending on needs.
English-language sessions are offered in the United Kingdom and international clients are not accepted.

Sessions & fees
How evidence-based approaches work online
Many of her sessions use Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy, which helps people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours to reduce anxiety and low mood. It often involves setting small experiments and learning coping techniques that can be practised between sessions.She also draws on Dialectical Behaviour Therapy approaches to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance and mindful awareness. These skills are useful when emotions feel overwhelming or when panic and anger are frequent problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and tailor methods to the person’s goals, needs and preferences in a collaborative way. Plans can be adjusted as progress is reviewed.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how people meet. Video calls let people use visual cues and allow a fuller conversation. Phone sessions suit shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging can be better for quick reflections, day-to-day support and people who prefer writing to talking.
These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and medical appointments while keeping the focus on learning practical skills and making steady progress.
