About Tina
Tina Hurley is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with ten years of professional experience. She focuses on helping people who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and bereavement. Tina aims to create a supportive space where people can begin to make changes at their own pace.
She works from the view that each person knows their story best and brings strengths to the work. Conversations begin with what matters most to the client and move at a pace they can manage.
Background and approach
Tina often helps people build confidence, increase motivation and find practical ways to cope with daily pressures. Her background includes work with people affected by domestic abuse, grief and loss, and long-term conditions that affect mood and functioning.
Over ten years she has supported people dealing with addictions, sleep problems and relationship difficulties, while also addressing issues such as body image and work-related stress. Tina uses a mix of approaches to suit different needs, including attachment-focused ideas, client-centred listening and cognitive tools to change unhelpful thinking.
She also draws on mindfulness and solution-focused ideas to help people notice progress and set small achievable goals. People who contact her can expect a practical, calm style that focuses on what is useful now. Tina is open to working with LGBT clients and to people contacting her from outside the UK.

How Tina’s approaches translate to online counselling
Attachment-based work focuses on patterns in relationships and how early connections shape current feelings. Online conversations can spot these patterns and help people experiment with new ways of relating and managing emotion.Client-centred therapy emphasises careful listening and following the client's pace. In remote sessions this means the counsellor reflects back what is said, helps the client make sense of their experience and supports them to trust their own choices.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful thinking. This approach can be useful for anxiety, low mood and stress and works well alongside mindfulness or solution-focused steps.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to agree which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences and may adapt techniques as progress is made.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can help people fit therapy into busy lives because it removes travel time and can make scheduling easier. It also allows shorter check-ins or flexible appointment times when needed, while still using the same conversational and practical techniques as face-to-face work.
