About Ina

Ina Thomson helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, relationship worries and low self-esteem. She offers a calm, attentive presence and practical ways to cope when life feels overwhelming. Ina works from a humanistic perspective that recognises each person’s capacity to change.

She listens closely and adapts sessions to what an individual needs. Some people choose open conversation, while others prefer a clearer plan with goals and tools. Her practice includes looking at how past events affect present reactions.

Background and approach

That often means noticing triggers and how the nervous system responds to stress and trauma. She supports people who identify as highly sensitive and who need strategies to regulate strong feelings. Ina uses a mix of techniques such as challenging unhelpful thoughts and changing unhelpful behaviour patterns.

Sessions aim to build practical skills for everyday life as well as deeper self-understanding. She offers therapy in English and German. Ina is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

She has three years of professional experience as a counsellor and works with people across a range of life concerns including parenting strain, coping with change, compassion fatigue and intimacy-related issues. To start, she encourages a short introductory conversation so goals can be agreed and a plan made that fits the person’s needs and schedule.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions that fit your life

Ina uses a humanistic framework that focuses on each person’s strengths and potential for change. This approach helps people who want a warm, non-judgemental space to talk through feelings and make sense of life challenges.

She also works with techniques that challenge unhelpful thoughts and change behaviour patterns. These methods are practical and aim to reduce anxiety, panic reactions and low mood by teaching ways to spot and shift thought and action patterns.

Ina pays attention to how past overwhelm shows up now, including the nervous system’s reactions. Part of the work is identifying triggers and developing regulation strategies to reduce strong emotional reactions and improve day-to-day coping.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Ina will work with each person to decide whether a conversational humanistic style, a more structured plan, or a blend of techniques is best. That choice is made together, based on goals, preferences and how someone responds in early sessions.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are useful when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer writing, want flexible check-ins, or need brief support between longer sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
