About Tina
Tina Dale is a counsellor who uses practical, thought-focused work to help people untangle difficult feelings. She combines everyday conversations with techniques that target thoughts and habits, so clients can make changes that matter. Tina holds NCPS and brings four years of experience working with a wide range of concerns.
People come to her for help with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and relationship strain. She also supports those dealing with stress, addiction, sleep or eating worries, and challenges linked to identity and intimacy. Sessions aim to clarify what is causing distress and to build small, manageable steps forward.
Her style is warm and straightforward. Tina listens first, then helps clients identify patterns of thinking and everyday habits that keep problems in place. Work can include trying new ways of coping, learning to notice unhelpful thoughts, and practising simple skills between sessions.
Tina pays attention to attachment and early experiences when these are relevant. She also uses approaches that focus on acceptance, values, and practical behaviour change to support progress. This combination is intended to help people reconnect, reduce overwhelm, and regain a sense of control.
If someone is ready to begin, Tina asks them to consider what matters most to them now. Conversations tend to be collaborative and paced to each person’s needs, with an emphasis on realistic changes that fit into everyday life.

How Tina’s approaches translate to online work
Tina draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her sessions. ACT helps people notice difficult thoughts and decide what matters to them, guiding action that fits their values. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and aims to improve closeness and safety in relationships. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and everyday habits to reduce symptoms and improve functioning.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Tina works collaboratively to match methods to a person’s goals, preferences and life situation. She explains options, tries them out, and adjusts the plan based on what helps the individual make steady progress.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also permits practical work between sessions, such as trying new routines at home and reporting back. Many people find remote sessions convenient for keeping momentum while balancing family, work, and everyday life.
