About Tineke
Tineke Zwinkels is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has four years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship concerns, addiction and anger. Sessions are aimed at people who want clearer understanding of their reactions and more practical ways to cope.
Her approach focuses on helping people notice how events shape feelings, thoughts and behaviour. She talks through experiences and patterns, so clients can see what keeps problems repeating. The work aims to build self-understanding and a stronger sense of worth over time.
Tineke uses conversation and reflection to help people develop new ways to respond to difficult situations. She encourages practical steps and small experiments that can be tried between sessions. This includes looking at how control issues, codependency or attachment concerns may affect relationships and daily choices.
She also addresses work-related stress, panic symptoms and phobias by breaking problems into manageable parts. For trauma and grief the focus is on making sense of what happened and reducing distressing reactions. Where self-harm, shame or isolation appear, she helps people explore alternatives and safer ways of coping.
Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted. Costs vary by location and are provided through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients use the online matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Evidence-based techniques are used to help people understand and manage strong emotions. One common approach is focused conversation and reflection that looks at how events influence thoughts and behaviour; this helps when anger stems from repeated patterns or relationship tension. Another approach is practical skills work, where small experiments and coping strategies are practised between sessions to reduce reactivity and build new habits. These approaches suit stress, panic symptoms, workplace frustration and grief reactions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means discussing what the person wants to change, trying a method, and adjusting plans if something does not feel useful.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people choose a quieter time of day, avoid being on camera for some sessions, or pick a session length that matches their schedule.
