Tanya Ellis, BACP, NCPS

Tanya Ellis is a therapist based in Buckinghamshire, United Kingdom, who brings seven years of professional experience working across a local agency, a hospice, and in private practice. She holds BACP and NCPS credentials - BACP indicates membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and works with a broad range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, eating issues, and challenges with self-esteem.

Tanya commonly supports clients facing life transitions, career obstacles, parenting and young adult concerns, and multicultural stressors. She also has focused experience with attachment issues, caregiver stress, communication problems, control issues, and difficulties such as panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive patterns, and mood disorders. Her approach blends client-centered warmth with practical strategies drawn from cognitive behavioral methods, allowing for a personalised, pluralistic plan that adapts to each person she sees.

Respect, compassion, and sensitivity inform her work, and she aims to create a collaborative therapeutic relationship that helps people explore their values, process loss, repair relationships, and develop coping skills. Tanya welcomes international clients and offers flexible session formats to fit different needs and lifestyles.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating an accepting, nonjudgmental space where the client leads the conversation and the therapist offers empathy and support; this approach helps when someone needs to explore identity, self-worth, or life purpose at their own pace.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, emotions, and behaviours interact and uses practical strategies to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, panic, and compulsive patterns; it is often helpful for people seeking structured tools to manage distress.

Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns that come from early relationships and how they influence current connections and intimacy; it can be especially useful for relationship difficulties, jealousy, isolation, and caregiver stress.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work itself. Tanya Ellis will collaborate with each client to identify the methods that fit their goals, preferences, and circumstances, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging - making it easier to fit support around work, caregiving, or geographical distance. Licensed professionals can deliver many effective interventions remotely, enabling continuity of care and access for international clients and those with busy schedules.
