About Tanya

Tanya Hend is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, anger, self-esteem, career matters, bipolar, coping with life changes, coaching and compassion fatigue. She speaks English and Arabic and accepts international clients.

Tanya focuses on straightforward conversations and practical steps. Sessions look at what causes tense moments and recurring reactions, then explore alternative ways to respond. She uses elements of client-centred work to listen and understand what matters to each person, and draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to spot patterns of thought and behaviour that keep problems active.

Clients can expect a calm, direct approach that aims to clarify goals and set manageable tasks between meetings. Tanya helps people practise small shifts in thinking and behaviour so anger and stress feel less overwhelming in day-to-day life. She also offers coaching-style conversations for career transitions and coping with major life changes.

Her background includes work with trauma and abuse, and she supports people managing mood issues such as bipolar alongside other concerns. Language support in Arabic can be used where useful to help explain feelings and reactions.

Tanya explains what she is doing in every session and invites feedback as work progresses. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then book their first session through the platform’s scheduling flow.

How sessions work

How her approaches work for online sessions

Tanya uses client-centred work to prioritise the person’s concerns and point of view. This approach means the counsellor listens carefully and helps the client name what matters most, which can ease frustration and make anger easier to talk about.

She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. CBT-style techniques are used to identify unhelpful thinking patterns, test them in daily life, and try alternative responses to reduce reactive behaviour and rumination.

Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the early work. Tanya will discuss goals, try methods, and adjust what they do together based on how helpful each approach feels. This is a collaborative process focused on what the client wants to change.

Practical benefits of online work include easier scheduling around work or family, shorter check-ins when that suits, and the option to meet without travelling. The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available formats when booking. Many people find online sessions help them fit therapy into a busy week while still working through anger and stress in practical ways.
