About Tina
Tina Hurley is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has 10 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with adults who are facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, depression and related concerns. Her profile also lists support for issues such as ADHD, relationship and family difficulties, addictions, sleep and eating problems, and career and life-change stress.
Tina describes people as the experts of their own stories and looks for existing strengths to build on. In sessions she listens for what matters most and helps people notice small, practical steps they can try between meetings. That may include talking through difficult memories, testing different ways of thinking about a situation, or practising short exercises to reduce anxious moments.
Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas to look at past relational patterns and on client-centred ways of keeping the person central to therapy. She also uses techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy and mindfulness to address unhelpful thoughts and to manage intense feelings. Solution-focused strategies are used when clients want brief, goal-oriented work.
Tina works with a broad range of life issues, including bereavement, compassion fatigue, chronic illness and caregiver stress. She lists additional focus areas such as abandonment, attachment issues, autism and blended family concerns. People seeking help for body image, communication or control issues will find these topics named in her practice.
Her writing and practice avoid jargon and aim for clear, short conversations. If someone is carrying guilt or shame about past actions, relationships or family beliefs, Tina offers a straightforward, practical way of addressing those feelings in session.
Approaches in online sessions and how they help
Many of Tina's methods translate into straightforward online work. Attachment-based approaches look at patterns in early and adult relationships and help people see how those patterns affect current feelings and choices. Client-centred work keeps the conversation focused on the person's experience, offering listening and reflection that helps clarify what matters most. Cognitive behavioural techniques involve noticing unhelpful thoughts and trying concrete experiments to change them, which can reduce anxiety and shift mood.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Tina will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their goals, needs and preferences, adjusting the plan as sessions progress. This is a practical discussion about what helps rather than a fixed prescription.

Online sessions can help fit therapy into busy days by reducing travel time, allowing shorter or more frequent check-ins when needed, and making it easier to schedule sessions around work or caregiving. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly use online meetings to support people with grief, anxiety, trauma and everyday stresses, while tailoring the method to individual circumstances.
