About Tamzin
Tamzin Brain is a UK-based counsellor with 14 years of experience. She blends talking therapy with practical tools to help people manage anxiety, stress, low mood and life changes. Tamzin presents as warm and non-judgemental and aims to help people feel more confident and able in day-to-day life.
She uses a person-centred, flexible way of working that begins by listening to what matters to each person. Sessions focus on the client’s goals and on small, practical steps that make life feel easier.
Background and approach
Tamzin draws on a mix of approaches to match what each person needs at the time. Common concerns she supports include anxiety, sleep problems, grief, relationship and parenting strains, anger and career pressures. She also works with issues such as attachment and abandonment, body image, chronic illness and caregiver stress.
People seeking help with self-esteem, depression or coping with major life shifts often come to her practice. Tamzin holds NCPS as a listed credential. She offers sessions in English and works with people across the United Kingdom.
Sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different circumstances. Her style is collaborative and practical. Clients can expect space to reflect, simple strategies to try between sessions, and a focus on making everyday life more manageable.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability.
How Tamzin’s approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting pulled along by them. It focuses on values and small actions that help life feel more meaningful, which can be useful for anxiety, depression and life transitions.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions are linked. It gives clear techniques to challenge unhelpful thinking and to practise different behaviours, often helping with anxiety, sleep problems and low mood.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tamzin will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then decide together which methods to try. That collaborative planning means the therapy can change over time as needs shift.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be useful for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer typing or who want more frequent, brief contact between sessions. These options support flexible ways of working with therapists and registered or accredited professionals across the UK.
