Tina Cooney, BACP

Tina Cooney is a therapist who holds BACP accreditation, meaning she is affiliated with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and follows recognised professional standards. She has five years of professional experience working with adults and specialises in supporting children and teenagers through a range of emotional and relational difficulties. Her areas of focus include stress, anxiety, family conflict, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, and anger, along with related concerns such as attachment issues, adoption and foster care, codependency, and blended family dynamics.

As a trauma-informed practitioner, Tina holds a certificate in trauma rewind therapy and a diploma in mindfulness. She describes her work as integrative, drawing on practical Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques, mindfulness practices, and other creative tools such as guided meditation to meet each person where they are. Tina works to create an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored and where building trust is understood as part of the therapeutic process.

She recognises the courage it takes to seek help and aims to support and empower clients as they work toward more fulfilling and balanced lives. Her preferred ways of working are online video calls or phone sessions, and she also offers message-based sessions. Message sessions are scheduled within a set 50-minute slot and take place via the platform with camera and sound turned off while participants type.
