Tina HurleyBACP

Tina Hurley is a counsellor with ten years of practice in the United Kingdom and a BACP accreditation. She focuses on everyday struggles such as stress, anxiety, depression and low self-esteem, and on deeper hurts like trauma, domestic abuse and bereavement. Tina writes in a warm, direct way and aims to make the first step feel manageable for people who are worried or unsure.

Tina works from the belief that each person knows their own story best. She helps people notice strengths they already have and use those to move through difficult moments. Her manner is supportive and empowering, with an emphasis on practical next steps rather than abstract theory.

Sessions tend to be conversational and goal-focused, with time spent building trust and clarity before trying new strategies. She offers help with motivation, coping after loss, relationship stress, parenting pressures and the strain of chronic health or caring roles. Eating, sleeping and work-related concerns are also within her scope.

Those who come to Tina can expect simple, practical tools alongside space to talk and reflect. She uses listening and tailored techniques to help people find changes that fit their life. The aim is steady progress, one step at a time.

Tina also supports people facing identity and neurodiversity issues, including LGBT concerns and autism or Asperger Syndrome. She accepts clients from outside the UK and works in English. To begin, readers are invited to follow the site process to match and book an initial session.

How Tina's approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people understand their ways of connecting and can ease worries about trust, closeness and conflict. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's experience and offers non-judgemental listening so people feel heard and clearer about what they want. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps by identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing simple, practical changes that reduce anxiety and low mood.

Finding the right approach is something Tina does together with each person. She will talk about goals, preferences and what feels manageable, then adapt which methods to try. The process is collaborative and paced to each person's needs.

The original biography does not spell out which online session formats are offered, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example by removing travel time, allowing a shorter check-in during a lunch break, or offering a quieter way to speak if leaving home is difficult. Many people find online sessions useful for keeping continuity of care and for trying out techniques between meetings.
