Supportive counsellor focused on practical change
About Tanika
Tanika Mancer is a BACP counsellor who brings seven years of experience to her work. She meets people where they are and helps them cope with stress, anxiety, low mood and other difficult feelings. Her style is warm and collaborative, and she focuses on what matters most to each person.
Tanika supports people through life transitions and work-related strain. She helps clients manage pressure, rebuild confidence and restore balance when things feel overwhelming.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to make thoughts clearer and day-to-day coping easier. Her practice uses a person-centred foundation. That means conversations centre on the client’s perspective and priorities.
Tanika listens without judgement and helps people name what they are feeling before choosing practical steps forward. Alongside person-centred work she draws on cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness exercises when these suit a person’s needs. Narrative and solution-focused ideas often shape short-term planning and goal-setting.
The approach is flexible and tailored to each situation. Tanika also works with a wide range of specific concerns, including addiction, grief, intimacy and family-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, ADHD and chronic illness. She pays attention to attachment and abandonment themes where they appear, and supports people exploring identity and relationships.
Sessions are offered in English and can be arranged online by following the site process. People who choose to work with Tanika can expect straightforward, practical conversations that aim to reduce overwhelm and increase day-to-day control.

How Tanika’s approaches work online
Tanika draws on person-centred work that keeps the focus on the client’s experience and priorities. This approach helps people feel heard and decide which issues to tackle first, useful for stress, confidence and relationship concerns.She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact. CBT offers practical strategies for anxiety, low mood and managing unhelpful habits by trying small changes and noticing the effects.
Finding the right way to work is a joint process. Tanika discusses options with each person and adapts methods to match their goals and comfort. Together they choose what to try and set simple measures of progress over time.
Online sessions include video calls, phone conversations, live chat and text-based messaging. Video lets people use body language and longer dialogue, phone can be quicker and needs less bandwidth, chat or text works well for brief check-ins or when a written record is helpful. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments while keeping the focus on practical change and steady progress.
