Background and approach
Her practice includes support for grief, trauma and managing ongoing health or pain issues. Tanika blends practical tools with reflective conversation. Sessions focus on what matters most to the individual and on building small, usable changes.
She uses techniques drawn from cognitive behavioural ideas and mindfulness alongside client-centred listening to help people notice patterns and try new ways of coping. Her style is warm, collaborative and non-judgemental. Tanika encourages clear goals and checks in about progress so people can see what is shifting between sessions.
She adapts the pace to each person's needs and preferences. People who come to Tanika often want help restoring balance, rebuilding confidence, or finding a way through a difficult period. She offers practical support and coaching alongside counselling to help people move forward with more confidence and resilience.
Approaches you can use in online counselling
Tanika commonly draws on client-centred work and cognitive behavioural ideas to support people online. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and helping people find their own answers; it suits those who want a supportive space to talk and reflect. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Tanika will talk through different options and tailor sessions to your goals and preferences. This makes it a collaborative process where methods may be adjusted as progress is reviewed.
Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to fit varied schedules and needs. Video works well for full conversations and face-to-face connection, while phone calls use less bandwidth and can be easier when concentration is limited. Messaging and live chat suit quick check-ins, brief coaching or people who prefer not to be on camera. These formats aim to make counselling more flexible and easier to fit into everyday life.
