About Tanya
Tanya McCann is a counsellor who uses a blend of approaches to help people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. She works with people coping with grief and loss, motivation struggles, and life changes. Tanya aims to build a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk about difficult feelings and take the next step forward.
With four years of practice in the United Kingdom, Tanya draws on client-centred work, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and psychodynamic ideas.
Background and approach
Client-centred work means she listens closely and follows what matters most to each person. CBT offers practical ways to spot unhelpful thinking and try different behaviours. Psychodynamic ideas help uncover patterns that repeat over time.
She describes her style as integrative, combining techniques to suit each person rather than using one fixed method. Early sessions focus on understanding the situation and agreeing what to work on. From there she and the client pick approaches that fit the goals and the pace the person needs.
Tanya supports people with addiction issues, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, eating difficulties, anger and career questions. She also works with people affected by trauma, bipolar disorder, ADHD and compassion fatigue. Her approach is practical and straightforward, aiming to make change manageable.
People meet her for short-term work or longer conversations depending on their needs. She encourages small, steady steps and checks in often to make sure the work is helpful.

Approaches Tanya lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Choosing the right approach is part of the conversation. Tanya works collaboratively, asking about goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as progress is made, so the work stays relevant and manageable.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when helpful, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options help people fit therapy around work, family and daily life while keeping the focus on useful, practical change.
