About Tanya
Tanya Chapman is a BACP counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief and depression. She has three years of professional experience and offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people to talk through difficult feelings. Tanya encourages small steps and recognises that asking for help takes courage.
In sessions she focuses on listening first and understanding what matters to each person. She works with people affected by trauma and abuse, and supports those struggling with addictions, sleep problems, eating concerns and low self-esteem.
Background and approach
She also addresses issues linked to ADHD, bipolar and relationship or family strain. Tanya has experience supporting people from LGBT communities and young adults. Her additional focus areas include obsessive-compulsive patterns, hoarding, personality-related difficulties and experiences of sexual assault and abuse.
She aims to tailor conversations to each person’s situation rather than using a one-size-fits-all method. Her approach centres on clear, practical steps alongside a supportive therapeutic relationship. Tanya helps people to break problems into manageable parts, try new coping strategies and review what works.
She invites clients to set goals together and revises plans as needs change. She works in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to her availability.

Therapeutic approaches and online working
Tanya uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional understanding. One common method she employs helps people identify unhelpful thinking and try different, more balanced ways of reacting; this approach is useful for anxiety and low mood. Another approach she uses concentrates on breaking down distressing experiences into smaller parts so coping skills can be practised step by step, which can be helpful after trauma or with difficult repetitive behaviours.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Tanya discusses options with each person and together they choose methods that fit the individual's goals and preferences. She reviews progress and adapts techniques as needs change, keeping the work collaborative and goal-focused.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reducing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins during breaks or quieter periods. They also let people meet from different locations, which can help when arranging care around work, study or other commitments.
