Tanya Chapman, BACP

Tanya Chapman is a UK-credentialed therapist with three years of professional experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and depression. She brings an evidence-based approach to each client's situation while focusing on compassionate listening and practical strategies that fit individual needs.

Tanya aims to foster an open and nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored safely. She works collaboratively with clients to understand their experiences and to develop coping tools that can be used between sessions. Her practice also attends to a wide range of concerns, including relationship and family issues, self-esteem, sleep and eating difficulties, ADHD, addictions, and mood-related challenges.

As a BACP practitioner, Tanya holds membership in the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, a professional body that reflects UK practice standards. She recognizes that beginning therapy requires courage and acknowledges the commitment it takes to reach out. Her approach centers on meeting people where they are and supporting steady progress toward their goals.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Support

Tanya uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional processing. One approach emphasises cognitive and behavioural strategies to identify unhelpful thought patterns and build alternative coping skills that reduce anxiety, low mood, and stress-related symptoms. Another approach is trauma-informed work that helps people process distressing experiences at a manageable pace while strengthening resilience and emotional regulation; this can be useful for those affected by abuse, loss, or past trauma.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Tanya works collaboratively with each person to understand their needs, goals, and preferences, and together they adapt methods and pace so the work feels appropriate and effective.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, to connect from different locations, and to continue consistent support when in-person sessions are not possible. Registered professionals, including therapists like Tanya, use these formats to maintain therapeutic continuity and to tailor care to each client's circumstances.
