Tina Hurley, BACP

Tina Hurley works in the United Kingdom and has ten years of professional experience supporting people through difficult life moments. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, low self-esteem, depression and substance-related concerns. Tina emphasises each person's strengths and treats people as the expert of their own story.

She takes a straightforward, respectful approach in sessions. She listens first, helps people name what matters most, and then suggests practical steps to try between meetings. This might include simple thinking exercises, mindfulness practices, or short goal-setting tasks. Sessions are paced to suit the person and the problem at hand.

Tina also works with relationship concerns, parenting stress, sleeping and eating problems, and career-related pressures. She includes work on attachment issues, abandonment and communication difficulties when they are relevant to someone's difficulties. Her practice covers a wide range of long-term and short-term challenges.

Her clinical approaches include attachment-based methods, client-centred work, cognitive behavioural ideas, mindfulness techniques and solution-focused strategies. She explains methods in plain language and adapts them to each person's needs. The emphasis is on useful tools people can try between sessions.

Tina is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are welcomed. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is used to help connect people with a suitable schedule and therapist.

How her approaches translate to online work

Tina uses attachment-based ideas to help people understand how early relationships affect current patterns. This approach looks at how connection and trust shape reactions and helps people find new ways to relate to themselves and others.

She also draws on client-centred therapy, which means sessions focus on the person's experience and priorities. The counsellor listens without judgement and follows the person's pace to build clarity and confidence.

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, is another part of her practice. CBT helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and try different behaviours to test out new ways of coping with anxiety, low mood or stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work itself. Tina will discuss options and decide together which methods match the person's goals, needs and preferences. That collaborative choice is reviewed as therapy progresses.

Online therapy can make regular sessions easier to fit into everyday life by removing travel time and allowing flexibility around work or caregiving. It can also support shorter check-ins when that suits a person's schedule. Confirm current session options before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats offered.
