About Tanya

Tanya Mitchell is a counsellor with six years of experience supporting people with alcohol and substance use alongside emotional wellbeing concerns. She works with individuals in community and justice settings and offers straightforward, respectful care. Tanya aims to help people build resilience and find practical ways to move forward.

Her practice is integrative, which means she adapts different therapeutic methods to suit each person's needs. Sessions are conversational and focused on everyday changes that make life easier.

Background and approach

She often uses worksheets and simple exercises to encourage reflection between meetings. Tanya provides a calm, non-judgemental space for people to talk about what is hard for them. She follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy ethical framework and is a registered member of BACP.

That guidance shapes how she works and the standards she follows. She aims to help clients notice patterns, develop coping strategies and strengthen emotional resilience. The pace and focus of work are agreed together so the counselling fits the person rather than the other way around.

If someone feels stuck or overwhelmed, Tanya offers practical conversations to identify small, achievable steps. Her goal is to support clearer thinking, steadier emotions and improved wellbeing through work that feels relevant and realistic.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Tanya lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

Practical therapeutic approaches and online support

Two commonly used, evidence-based techniques in Tanya's integrative practice are focused skills work and reflective talking. Focused skills work teaches straightforward coping tools and exercises that help manage stress, cravings or anxiety in the moment. Reflective talking helps people make sense of past experiences and how they affect current choices and relationships.

Tanya adapts these methods to each person's situation rather than using one fixed model. She discusses options with clients and together they choose what feels most useful for the goals being set. This collaborative approach helps people try methods that fit their life and adjust them as progress is made.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations when meeting in person is difficult. Phone sessions and live chat give flexibility for shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Text-based messaging can be used for ongoing reflection and brief support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family commitments and other responsibilities.
