Tina Dale, NCPS

Tina Dale brings a compassionate, creative style to counselling. She uses a mix of talking, practical strategies and reflection to help people facing loss, trauma, anxiety or relationship strain. Tina holds NCPS, which she uses as her professional credential, and she works from the United Kingdom.

She helps people who feel disconnected from friends and loved ones and those trying to heal old wounds. Many clients come for support with grief, trauma from childhood or adulthood, anxiety, depression and intimacy-related issues. She also supports people dealing with stress, addictions, sleep or eating concerns, and work or career pressures.

Sessions are collaborative and tailored to each person. Tina aims to uncover the roots of what is weighing someone down, whether that comes from past experiences or current life pressures. Practical tools and reflections are used alongside emotional processing to help people make steady changes.

Tina draws on a range of approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-based ideas, client-centred listening, cognitive behavioural techniques and elements of dialectical behaviour work. She mixes methods to suit the person rather than following one fixed route.

Over four years she has worked with a variety of presenting issues and complex life changes. If someone is ready to start, the usual first step is a short matching questionnaire and then arranging sessions that suit their schedule. Sessions are offered in English from the United Kingdom.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online counselling

Tina uses methods that are easy to adapt to an online setting. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and values-based action; it helps people with anxiety, stress and finding meaning. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current relationships and can help when people feel disconnected or struggle with intimacy. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) teaches practical ways to notice and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour, which often helps with low mood, panic and sleep problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tina will discuss goals and preferences and then try methods that suit the person. This is a collaborative process and approaches can be adjusted as therapy progresses to match what is most helpful.

The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy life and keeping continuity during changes in routine. Online options can make it easier to schedule brief check-ins or longer sessions without travel. Please confirm the current session formats before booking so you know what is offered and can choose what best fits your day.
