About Tanya

Tanya Hend helps people deal with stress, anxiety, depression and relationship and family strain. She also supports those coping with trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, career worries, bipolar challenges, ADHD and major life changes. Tanya is a BACP counsellor who offers a calm, respectful approach.

Tanya keeps sessions focused on the person in front of her. She listens first, then helps clients set clear, practical goals. Conversations are tailored to each person rather than following a one-size-fits-all script.

Background and approach

That can mean short-term skills work or a longer process, depending on what the client needs. Her way of working draws on client-centred therapy, so the sessions aim to be warm, non-judgemental and led by the client’s priorities. Cognitive behavioural techniques are also used to spot unhelpful thinking and try out different behaviours between sessions.

Tanya's background includes three years of formal counselling practice under the BACP, with prior professional experience noted in her provided biography. She speaks English and Arabic, which can help people who prefer to discuss concerns in either language. Practical steps are part of Tanya’s approach.

She helps people identify small, achievable changes and builds on progress over time. The focus is on steady improvement and clearer ways to manage everyday pressures. Anyone wanting to begin can expect straightforward conversations about goals, options and what would help most.

Tanya aims to make the process simple and manageable for people taking those first steps.

Sessions & fees

How these approaches work online

Tanya uses client-centred therapy to put the person’s concerns at the heart of each session. That means the counsellor listens carefully and follows the client’s agenda while offering support and reflection to help make sense of difficult feelings.

She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and behaving. CBT is often useful for anxiety, low mood and stress when people want practical steps to try between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is a joint process. Tanya will discuss goals and preferences and suggest ways of working that match the person’s needs. That might be a short series of skills-focused sessions or a longer, more exploratory process depending on what feels most helpful.

Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that is preferred. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging give flexibility for people who find written conversations easier or who need to fit support around work and family commitments.

Many registered or accredited professionals use these formats to make therapy more accessible while keeping the focus on real, practical progress.
