During her time in the NHS, Tanya worked for over six years as Head of Community Psychological Services, leading all adult primary and secondary care community psychological services for Redbridge within the North East London NHS Foundation Trust.

She is a registered and accredited supervisor with 20 years’ experience and also teaches and provides consultancy.
Before training in psychological therapies, Tanya held a career in media research, marketing and sales, where she worked in advertising and financial services. She has also worked as a professional writer, agony aunt and in the advertising, construction and careers advice sectors.
Tanya has been a consultant counselling psychologist for over ten years and is also an accredited mediator.
Tanya enjoys working with individuals, couples and groups. She has extensive experience of treating a wide variety of anxiety and mood disorders such as depression and bipolar disorder, social and specific phobias, OCD, general anxiety, PTSD, couples and relationship distress.
