Tanya Ellis , BACP, NCPS

Tanya Ellis is a licensed therapist based in Buckinghamshire, United Kingdom, with seven years of experience working across a local agency, a hospice setting, and private practice. She holds BACP, a professional association for counsellors and psychotherapists, and NCPS, a recognised professional certification, and brings a pluralistic approach that draws on multiple methods to meet individual needs.

Her practice addresses a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, addictions, eating concerns, and challenges related to identity and life transitions. Tanya integrates client-centred warmth with evidence-informed techniques such as cognitive behavioral strategies and emotionally focused approaches, adapting interventions to support attachment issues, caregiver stress, communication problems, infidelity, isolation, and other focused concerns.

Known for a friendly, open, warm, and genuine style, she emphasises respect, sensitivity, and collaboration. Tanya works with each person to shape a tailored treatment plan within a pluralistic framework so that the methods used fit the client’s goals and circumstances. When someone is ready to begin change, she offers steady, practical support aimed at improving relationships and emotional well-being.

Therapeutic approaches for effective online support

Tanya commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). ACT helps people clarify their values and learn practical ways to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while taking committed action toward meaningful goals - it is often useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relational patterns influence current relationships and emotional responses, which can be helpful for attachment concerns, relationship difficulties, and intimacy issues. CBT offers structured techniques to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, making it effective for depression, panic, and many anxiety-related problems.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Tanya works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors the plan together with clients so therapy feels practical and personally relevant.

Online therapy with Tanya is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals without needing to travel, and they allow therapy to continue around work, family, or other commitments.
