About Tanya

Tanya Hend is a counsellor who supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and relationship and family difficulties. She also helps with anger, low self-esteem, career questions, bipolar mood management, ADHD, compassion fatigue and other life changes. Tanya works in English and Arabic and offers sessions remotely to people inside and outside the United Kingdom.

Tanya takes a respectful and sensitive approach in sessions. She listens first and adapts conversations to each person's needs.

Background and approach

People can expect a calm, non-judgemental space where their concerns are heard and discussed plainly. Her work draws on client-centred practice, which means the focus stays on the person’s own goals and experience. She also uses ideas from cognitive behavioural therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and try practical ways to change it.

These methods are applied in everyday language and with simple, actionable steps. With three years of contemporary counselling experience and a BACP credential, Tanya aims to tailor a plan that fits each client. She emphasises practical coping strategies alongside emotional support, so sessions balance problem-solving and reflection.

People often begin with talking about the most pressing issue and then shape ongoing sessions from there. Tanya invites clients to set the pace and priorities so work moves at a comfortable speed.

How Tanya blends client-centred work and CBT online

Tanya uses client-centred therapy to keep the conversation focused on the person’s goals and experience. This approach means the counsellor follows the client’s pace, listens carefully and helps people find their own solutions to problems.

She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions. CBT techniques offer clear, practical exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviours, which can help with anxiety, low mood and stress.

Choosing the right approach is a joint process. Tanya will discuss what feels most useful and adjust methods as work progresses. Together the client and counsellor pick priorities, try approaches, and review what helps.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets people use visual contact for deeper emotional work. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat or text messaging can support quick check-ins or ongoing reflection between longer sessions. These options aim to make the process match real life and practical needs for timing and communication.
