About Tanya
Tanya Ellis helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief and relationship strain. She is Tanya Ellis, a counsellor with seven years of practice in the United Kingdom and credentials listed as BACP and NCPS. Her approach is warm and straightforward.
She aims to make starting therapy feel manageable for a worried parent reading on a phone. Tanya uses clear, practical conversations to untangle difficult feelings. She draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to spot unhelpful patterns.
Background and approach
She also uses client-centred work to keep the focus on what matters most to each person. Attachment-based thinking guides her when relationships and trust are central concerns. Emotion-focused ideas help when grief, loss or strong emotions are present.
Tanya adapts methods to suit the person in front of her rather than following one set plan. Her background includes work in local agencies, hospice settings and independent practice. That range has given experience with end-of-life conversations, caregiver stress and bereavement alongside more everyday worries like work pressure and life changes.
Tanya speaks English and accepts clients across borders. Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging, and scheduling is organised through a subscription model. She encourages people to take the first step when they feel ready and to shape therapy around their needs.

Online support
Finding the right method is part of the work together. Tanya will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and try different approaches or combinations until they find what fits. The process is collaborative and adjusts as needs change.
Online sessions through video, phone, live chat or text messaging make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls support face-to-face style conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be a good shorter check-in, live chat suits people who prefer typing in the moment, and messaging lets someone pause and reply when convenient. These options help people keep continuity of care across locations and schedules while focusing on practical steps and emotional work.
