About Tania

Tania Danielle Thacker works with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and disordered eating, and supports people facing low self esteem and life changes. She uses a mix of therapeutic methods and has four years' experience in the United Kingdom. She is registered with NCPS.

Tania draws on several approaches to find what helps each person most. She uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to look at patterns of thinking and behaviour. She also works with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness techniques, hypnotherapy and psychodynamic ideas.

She has particular experience in trauma work, including post-traumatic stress and dissociation. Somatic methods - working with the body - form part of her trauma practice. She also uses EMDR-related approaches and the Flash Technique when appropriate.

Tania has worked a lot with addictions and disordered eating, including binge eating. She speaks from both professional and lived experience when addressing drug and alcohol addiction, food-related issues, body image and impulsivity. She helps people who struggle with guilt, shame and social anxiety.

Sessions aim to be practical and action-focused. Clients can expect to talk through current problems, try concrete strategies, and reflect on deeper patterns that affect behaviour and relationships. Tania offers coaching-style support for life purpose and midlife concerns alongside clinical work.

She works in English and accepts international clients. If someone wants to start, they are asked to use the counsellor matching process to book an initial session and agree a plan of work.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and to commit to actions that reflect their values. It can help with anxiety, low mood and life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and testing small changes to improve day-to-day functioning; it is commonly used for anxiety and depression. EMDR and EMDR-related trauma techniques work with disturbing memories and bodily reactions to reduce their intensity and the ongoing impact of past events.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss options and agree a plan based on the person's needs, goals and preferences, and will adapt methods as therapy progresses. This is a collaborative process so clients can raise what feels most useful to them.

Practical benefits of remote counselling include fitting sessions around work, study and family commitments and reducing travel time. The biography does not list session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to attend consistently and to use short check-ins when life is busy, while other arrangements can be discussed to match practical needs.
