About Tina

Tina Dale is a counsellor who uses a compassionate, creative approach to help people through difficult times. She holds NCPS and works from the United Kingdom. Tina aims to make sessions feel straightforward and focused so clients can start to feel better in small, practical ways.

She often helps people coping with stress, anxiety and depression, and also supports those dealing with grief, trauma and addiction. Relationship strain, attachment issues and intimacy-related concerns are within her focus, as are eating and sleeping problems, ADHD and career worries. Money and financial issues are included among the practical life stresses she addresses.

Tina combines several therapeutic styles to match each person’s needs. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take manageable steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to spot unhelpful thinking and try small behavioural changes.

In sessions she prioritises listening and practical problem solving. The work aims to uncover roots of recurring troubles, whether from past experiences or current pressures. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person’s comfort.

She has four years of clinical experience and adapts techniques to suit different concerns. If someone wants to explore coaching alongside therapy, that can be discussed. To begin, people follow the service’s Start Therapy process and schedule according to availability.

How Tina’s approaches translate to online work

Tina uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in ways that suit online conversations. ACT focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking small, value-led steps; it helps when people feel stuck or unsure about choices. CBT concentrates on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing simple behaviour changes to reduce anxiety or low mood.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Tina will talk with each person about their goals, struggles and preferences and then suggest options. That decision is collaborative and can be revisited as therapy progresses.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions around work or family life and avoiding travel time. Online work can make brief check-ins or focussed skill practice simpler to arrange. Because the profile does not list specific session formats, confirm the available formats before booking so you know what will work best for your routine and needs.
