About Tamzin

Tamzin Brain is a UK-based counsellor with 14 years of professional experience. She holds NCPS and works with people who feel stuck by stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem or life changes. Tamzin aims to help clients regain confidence and move forward in practical, steady steps.

She describes a person-centred, flexible way of working. Sessions focus on what matters to the individual and on practical changes they can try between meetings.

Background and approach

Tamzin uses a mix of talking therapies alongside approaches that focus on thoughts, emotions and relationships. Clients can expect calm, non-judgemental listening and a collaborative plan. The emphasis is on understanding patterns - for example around attachment, avoidance, or unhelpful thinking - and trying new ways of responding.

Work may include addressing trauma and abuse alongside everyday stresses like sleep problems, parenting strain or career worries. Tamzin also draws on approaches that target thinking patterns and behaviour, and those that explore relationships and emotional responses. Sessions may include exercises to build tolerance for strong feelings, practical skills for day-to-day coping, and chances to practise different ways of communicating.

Her practice offers several online formats to suit different needs, and sessions form part of a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. People looking to begin are invited to use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire to schedule sessions.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Trauma-Focused Therapy helps people name and work through distressing experiences. It often focuses on reducing the hold of painful memories and teaching ways to manage strong reactions in daily life.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches practical skills for living with difficult thoughts and feelings while taking steps toward chosen values. It helps when avoidance or stuck patterns stop people doing what matters to them.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape emotional responses. It can support people who struggle with trust, fear of abandonment or repeated relationship patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tamzin will discuss different methods and agree a plan with the client based on their needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and methods can change as progress is made.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let you see facial cues and work more like a face-to-face session. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or a good option when bandwidth is low. Live chat and text messaging allow ongoing reflection and brief check-ins between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and mobility needs, while letting therapists and clients try different ways of working together.
