Tanya Anderson

I am currently taking on new clients between the ages of 8-25 years. Sessions are purely online and easily accessible. My working hours are Mondays-Thursday 6pm-8pm and Sundays 4pm-7pm. 

Hi, I'm Tanya, my passion for counselling began when I started  my work with children and young people over a decade ago. This experience ignited a desire to help individuals explore their authentic selves, fostering growth whether through creative expression or purely conversational guidance. My approach is rooted in a genuine commitment to helping you become the best version of yourself. I am DBS checked and abide by confidentiality and uphold strong safeguarding practices in my work. I have worked as a Learning Support  Assistant support children and young people with and Autism Diagnosis. Guidance Counsellor and an Autism and SEND Practitioner. I am a qualified Children and Young People Counsellor with an M.Sc. in Counselling Children and young People. I also have a B.Sc. in Psychology, a Level 4 Certificate and Diploma in Counselling Children and Adolescent and a Certificate in Understand Individuals on the Autistic Spectrum. I take pride in my work with children, young people and their families and use my counselling skills in offering timely, non-judgemental support to them.

Your first session is for setting the pace. In this session, I follow your lead, there is no rush to get things done, we work together to ensure you feel comfortable, at ease and relaxed. I will not bombard you with questions but create an atmosphere where you feel confident to express yourself freely. If at the end of the first session you do not feel counselling is for you, there will be pressure to commit.
