Tanya Chapman
Compassionate, practical support for tough times
About Tanya
Tanya Chapman offers straightforward support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or loss. She writes in a calm, direct way and aims to make first steps easier for anyone unsure about therapy. Tanya is based in the United Kingdom and brings three years of professional experience as a BACP counsellor.
She focuses on talking through current struggles such as depression, grief, trauma and problems with sleep or eating. Tanya also helps people facing ADHD, addictions, bipolar difficulties and concerns linked to sexual assault and abuse.
Background and approach
She works with LGBT issues and relationship or family stressors, and addresses harder-to-talk-about problems like self-harm, obsessions and personality concerns. In sessions she prioritises a non-judgemental space where feelings can be said out loud and noticed. Conversations are practical and plainspoken.
Goals and small next steps are agreed together so progress feels manageable. Her background includes three years of hands-on clinical work in the UK and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That registration is the credential shown in her profile and indicates her professional membership.
Tanya offers a range of online formats to fit different needs. She guides people through the matching and scheduling process and helps them choose the session style that suits their life and comfort level.

How evidence-based techniques work online
Tanya draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions in clear, practical ways. One helpful approach focuses on talking through current thoughts and behaviours to reduce anxiety and improve mood; it teaches simple tools to notice thinking patterns and try different responses. Another approach emphasises stabilising routines and coping strategies for sleep, eating and impulse-related difficulties, helping people build small, steady changes day to day. Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. Tanya will listen to what matters most, discuss goals and try methods that fit a person's preferences and life. She checks in as therapy progresses and adjusts the plan so it stays useful and relevant. Online formats give practical advantages for many people. Video calls let a therapist and client speak face to face from different places. Phone sessions can be a good shorter check-in when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick reflections, written processing or people who prefer typing over talking. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, studying or caring responsibilities and to stick with sessions consistently.| Session length | Typically 50 minutes |
