About Tina
Tina Elliston is a counsellor, psychotherapist and life coach who focuses on working with individuals to meet their specific needs. She keeps her caseload deliberately small so she can build a trusting working relationship and tailor sessions to each person. Tina uses a gentle, goal-led style and encourages people to set the pace and direction of their work.
Her approach blends client-centred listening with mindfulness, cognitive behavioural techniques and solution-focused ideas. She offers practical tools such as worksheets and reading suggestions, and she checks in on progress between sessions. The aim is to help people develop coping skills and make steady steps forward when life feels stuck.
Tina has five years’ experience as a therapist and draws on an earlier nursing and midwifery career. That background informs her work with fertility difficulties, pregnancy, baby loss and birth trauma. She also has many years supporting women with anxiety, low mood, sleep problems and body image concerns.
She lists additional focus areas including ADHD, autism, attachment issues, bereavement and relationship difficulties. Tina also helps people facing career stress, compassion fatigue, chronic illness and the challenges that follow separation or divorce. Coping with natural or human-caused disaster appears among her areas of focus.
Tina holds the NCPS credential and has completed additional diplomas in topics such as ADHD, autism, attachment theory, bereavement, bipolar disorder and couples counselling. She welcomes international clients and runs work at a pace that suits each person.
How her approaches work in online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. The therapist follows the client’s lead, offering empathy and reflection to help people make sense of their situation and choose next steps. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses short practical exercises to shift unhelpful patterns. It is often helpful for anxiety, low mood and sleep problems. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and work with strong emotions and attachment patterns to improve relationships and communication.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tina will discuss different ways of working and test what fits the person’s goals and preferences. The process is collaborative so clients and therapist can adjust the focus as needed.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. In general online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, shorten travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Some formats are better for exercises that use worksheets or for step-by-step CBT tasks, while others suit longer emotional conversations. The practical aim is to help therapy fit everyday life and goals rather than add burden.
