About Tanya

Tanya Perrin is a counsellor who combines practical talking therapy with compassionate support. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has worked in the UK for 10 years. Tanya helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief and anger, and she supports those worrying about intimacy and self-esteem.

Her approach adapts to each person's needs. She draws on client-centred listening so people feel heard, and uses evidence-based techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy to address unhelpful thinking. She also uses mindfulness and elements of dialectical behaviour therapy to help with emotional regulation and grounding.

Tanya has experience supporting people affected by serious illness and loss. Her background includes counselling for cancer patients and palliative care, and she has run bereavement and loss work. She has also worked in schools and with people who have complex mental health needs.

In sessions she focuses on clear, practical steps alongside deeper reflection. That might mean mapping patterns of thinking, practising grounding or mindfulness, or working on communication and coping skills. Tanya tailors each plan so it fits the person she is seeing.

If you are juggling caring duties, health challenges, or the after-effects of a traumatic event, she offers grounded support. To begin, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session according to availability.

How Tanya's approaches translate to online therapy

Tanya uses client-centred work and cognitive behavioural techniques to support people remotely. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. It helps when someone needs space to talk things through and feel understood. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and gives practical tools to change unhelpful patterns. CBT can be useful for anxiety, stress and sleep problems.

Finding the right approach is a joint process. Tanya will discuss goals and preferences with each person and suggest which methods might help. She adapts exercises and plans so they fit the individual's day-to-day life, working together to test what feels most useful.

The original biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work, caring duties or health appointments. It can also allow shorter check-ins, written follow-ups, and regular practice of techniques such as grounding and mindfulness between sessions.
