Tammy Lewis, BACP

Tammy Lewis is a qualified integrative counsellor based in Liverpool, England, who works with adults facing stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship or family difficulties, and challenges rooted in childhood experiences. She also supports clients wanting to build self-esteem and confidence as they navigate life changes and personal growth.

Tammy approaches each person with the belief that they are the expert in their own life and already possess strengths that can help them move through difficult times. She frames therapy as a partnership that honours the client’s perspective while offering guidance, support, and tools to foster meaningful change. Tammy holds BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - as her professional credential.

Sessions can focus on specific problems or take a broader look at how someone is feeling day to day. Tammy may provide information, practical suggestions, and homework to reinforce progress, while avoiding prescriptive instructions about what a client should think or do. Her online appointments are offered by video or phone and are typically scheduled weekly, ideally at the same day and time to build continuity.

She aims to be flexible in how people communicate and will work with each individual to find the format that best supports their therapeutic journey. Tammy looks forward to supporting people as they take steps toward a more fulfilling life.

Therapeutic approaches for online care

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, non-judgemental space where the client’s experience guides the work. It emphasises empathy and unconditional positive regard, helping people build self-understanding and confidence when dealing with issues like low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, or life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical strategies to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. It is often used to address anxiety, stress, low mood, and coping with challenging situations by introducing skills and exercises that can be practiced between sessions.

Psychodynamic Therapy explores how past experiences, attachments, and recurring relationship patterns influence present feelings and behaviour. This approach can be helpful for people working through abandonment, attachment issues, or deeper-seated emotional patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Tammy - as a BACP-registered professional - works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Therapists often combine elements from different approaches to tailor the work to each person.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility and easier access to regular support, making it simpler to fit sessions into daily life and maintain continuity of care from familiar settings.
