About Taya

Taya Bassett is a counsellor who uses practical, evidence-based methods to help people manage stress, anxiety and the impacts of trauma. She draws on five years of professional experience in the United Kingdom to offer calm, focused support. Taya aims to make first steps feel manageable and straightforward for anyone feeling overwhelmed by life changes or difficult emotions.

She works with people facing relationship strains, family difficulties and issues around intimacy and communication.

Background and approach

Taya also helps with low self-esteem, motivation, coping after loss, and patterns linked to addiction. Her approach is down-to-earth and tailored to each person’s situation. In sessions she listens with sensitivity and respect, then helps clients set clear goals.

Conversations are practical and paced to what the person can handle. Plans are adjusted over time to fit changing needs and progress. Taya has additional experience supporting people dealing with abandonment, attachment questions, blended family challenges and body image concerns.

She can also help when caregiving pressures, cancer or major life transitions are affecting wellbeing. She works in English and offers therapy to people based in the United Kingdom. Sessions are offered through video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.

To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and appointments are scheduled from there.

Therapeutic approaches and how online therapy works

Many of the techniques Taya uses are grounded in well researched, evidence-based approaches that focus on changing unhelpful patterns and building coping skills. One common approach helps people notice and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviours so anxiety and low mood become easier to manage; it is useful for stress, anxiety and depression. Another approach concentrates on processing difficult experiences and trauma in small, manageable steps to reduce their hold on daily life and improve emotional steadiness.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Taya will discuss options with each person, weigh up what feels most helpful, and adjust methods based on progress and preferences. The goal is to match technique to the person’s needs rather than sticking to a single method.

Online sessions offer practical benefits for many people. Video calls let you meet face to face without travel, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make therapy more flexible around work, family and other commitments, and allow the therapist to deliver consistent support across different formats.
