Real Support for Real People
Life can get messy. Whether you’re carrying the weight of anxiety, navigating a difficult relationship, processing grief, or simply feeling like you’ve lost your way, you don’t have to face it alone.
I’m Tina, and I’m the counsellor behind Phoenix Talk Therapy. I offer a different kind of counselling experience, on that’s warm, grounded, and genuinely human. No clipboard stages or endless silences. Just honest, real conversations that help you move forward.
I work with adults and young people, supporting people through anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationships, and much more. Sessions are available face to face at my practice in Ware, Hertfordshire, online via video call, and by telephone, so support fits around your life, not the other way around.
Based in Ware, Hertfordshire, I provide face to face counselling in Ware, online counselling and telephone counselling throughout the UK, as well as walk and talk therapy outdoors in Hertfordshire. My aim is to provide a variety of counselling options to suit different personalities and needs.
Why Work With Me?
I genuinely love what I do. I know – it’s a little unsettling. But it means that when you show up to a session, I’m truly invested in you and your progress.
My passion for mental health started long before I became a counsellor. Over the years, I’ve also had my own experiences with mental health, which means when you sit across from me and say, “I’m struggling”, I’m not imagining it from a textbook. I’ve walked parts of that terrain myself.
I’m a BACP-registered psychotherapist and couples counsellor, trained to Level 5 in Working Therapeutically with Children and Young People in Schools. I’m also currently training as a hypnotherapist and will shortly be starting my EMDR training, so my toolbox just keeps on growing.
From your very first session, you’ll be met with empathy, honesty, and humanity. You’ll leave feeling like you’ve made real progress – however small.
What can Phoenix Talk Therapy Help With?
I support adults, young people and couples dealing with a wide range of challenges including:
- Anxiety and stress
- Depression and low mood
- Bereavement and loss
- Relationship difficulties
- Trauma and PTSD
- Low self-esteem
- Life transitions and feeling stuck
- Work-related stress
- Self-harm and suicidal feelings
- Other personal and emotional issues
I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all therapy. Humans are far more complicated that socks. Every session is tailored to what you need most. You’ll never be judged, rushed or put into a box.
How Does Therapy with Me Work?
Free Consultation
Before we begin, I offer a free, no-obligation 15-minute consultation. This is your chance to ask questions, get a feel for how I work, and decide whether I am the right counsellor for you.
Your First Session
Your first full session is all about getting to know you. What’s brought you here, what you’re hoping to work through, and what feels most important right now. There is no agenda. Just a conversation.
Ongoing Support
From there, your sessions with be planned weekly or fortnightly at a time that suits you. Evenings and weekends are available for those who need flexibility. Sessions are £50, payable by bank transfer, cash or card.
I also offer limited low-cost counselling for students, members of the armed forces and NHS workers.
A Note on Confidentiality
Everything discussed in your sessions is kept strictly confidential. As a BACP member, I follow the association’s ethical framework, which means your privacy is always protected. The only exceptions are where there is risk of serious harm, and even then, I will discuss this with you wherever possible.
