About Tatyana
Tatyana Sibthorpe is a BACP-registered counsellor with 16 years of experience supporting people through difficult life changes. She uses a respectful, compassionate style and adapts conversations to each person’s needs. Tatyana welcomes sessions in English and Russian and works with international clients from the United Kingdom base.
She helps people facing addictions, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, and career challenges. Depression, anxiety and stress are also common concerns she addresses. Other areas she supports include grief, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting strain, low self-esteem and coping with chronic illness or caregiving demands.
Tatyana draws on several practical approaches. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take meaningful action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is employed to notice and change thought and behaviour patterns. Attachment-Based methods help when past relationships affect present connections.
Her sessions aim to be straightforward and collaborative. Conversations focus on what is happening now, the goals a person wants, and small steps that can be tried between meetings. The therapist adjusts pace and approach to match each person’s circumstances.
People who choose her can expect a gentle but goal-oriented way of working. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling according to availability. Tatyana offers a supportive space for steady progress toward clearer priorities and improved day-to-day coping.
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Tatyana commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy when helping people who are navigating loss, relationship strain, or difficult feelings. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then taking actions that match what matters to the person. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people change unhelpful ways of relating.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through options, listen to the person’s goals, and suggest ways to try different methods. That collaborative process helps shape sessions so they feel useful and manageable.
If you are considering online therapy, please confirm the specific session options before booking as formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when days are busy. It can also let people continue support while living outside the local area. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises, homework and conversational techniques to suit remote sessions so progress can continue even when meeting digitally.
