About Tina
Tina Dale is a counsellor who uses practical, person-centred methods to help people manage anxiety, grief, relationship strain and life changes. She holds NCPS and draws on a mix of approaches to meet each person's needs. Her style is calm and straightforward, aiming to make therapy feel manageable and relevant to day-to-day life.
She often begins by listening to what matters most and asking simple questions about how difficulties show up day to day.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on understanding feelings, identifying patterns from the past, and trying small changes that can ease pressure. This might include learning ways to handle strong emotions, improving communication, or testing new routines for sleep and mood.
Tina uses techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy and attachment-based work to help people make sense of thoughts and rebuild trust in relationships. She also draws on client-centred and dialectical behaviour therapy ideas when appropriate. Together with the client she decides which methods are most useful for the problem at hand.
Her practice covers a wide range of concerns including stress, trauma, bereavement, addictions, parenting pressures, identity and LGBT-related issues. Tina has four years of experience and works with each person at a pace that suits them. She aims to help people find clearer choices and more steady coping between sessions.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions based on therapist availability. Fees vary by location and are billed through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How Tina’s approaches translate to online counselling
Tina uses a blend of cognitive behavioural therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try different responses. CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical exercises to change patterns. ACT focuses on values and taking small committed steps even when difficult emotions remain.She also draws on attachment-based ideas to understand how early relationship patterns affect current connections. That work helps people see where trust and closeness feel hard, and it supports trying new ways of relating in everyday life.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Tina will discuss choices with each person and adapt methods to match their goals, preferences and current situation. Together they review what works and adjust the plan as therapy progresses.
If you want to explore online options, please confirm available session formats before booking as the biography does not specify them. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use tools and exercises between meetings to practise new skills in real life.
