Tetiana Brotherton
Understanding, practical support for change
About Tetiana
Tetiana Brotherton helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief and depression. She writes plainly and listens without judgement. Her work focuses on practical steps that make everyday life easier to manage.
Tetiana uses a mix of approaches to suit each person. Sessions are centred on the individual and often include cognitive behavioural strategies to challenge unhelpful thoughts. Mindfulness techniques may be used to reduce reactivity and bring attention to the present moment.
Background and approach
She brings three years of experience to her practice and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That membership is shown as BACP on her profile. In sessions she talks through patterns that keep someone stuck and helps them try different ways of responding.
Motivational interviewing can be used when people feel stuck about change, while solution-focused ideas help set short-term goals and small steps forward. Tetiana also offers support around attachment and family of origin issues, body image and codependency. She works with people affected by domestic violence, divorce and separation, eating and food-related issues, feelings of emptiness, and problems with communication and control.
She speaks English, Russian and Ukrainian. People can begin by filling a short questionnaire and then arranging sessions that suit their schedule.

How therapeutic approaches work online
Client-centred therapy puts the person at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what is said and follows the person’s pace so they feel understood. This approach helps when someone simply needs non-judgemental space to make sense of difficult feelings.Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings and actions. It helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and try different behaviours, which can ease anxiety and depression symptoms. Mindfulness therapy trains attention to the present moment through short exercises and breathing techniques to reduce reactivity and improve calmness.
Tetiana treats finding the right approach as a shared task. She will discuss options and try techniques together, adjusting methods as goals and preferences become clearer. The aim is to build a plan that feels workable in daily life.
Online sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls let people see facial cues and use visual tools, phone sessions require less bandwidth and can suit quick check-ins, while chat and messaging offer flexibility for shorter conversations across the day. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments and let people choose what feels most comfortable.
