About Tania
HCPC. British Psychological Society. 16 years' experience. Dr. Tania Muthen works with mood and anxiety problems, relationship strain, anger and stress, and mood disorders including bipolar and depression. She uses a blend of evidence-based approaches and develops treatment plans with clients.
Dr Muthen draws on many years in both private practice and hospital work. She has been a consultant psychologist at a private hospital for the last two years and previously led a department in a government hospital in South Africa for 13 years. She has also provided therapy in medical settings, including oncology and rehabilitation services.
Her clinical work commonly addresses depression, bipolar disorder, panic and other anxiety problems, and stress-related distress. She also helps people navigate loss, adjustment after separation or divorce, and anger management. Additional focuses include control issues, guilt and shame, isolation or loneliness, and struggles with self-love.
In sessions she integrates different theoretical approaches rather than relying on a single method. The biography lists Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy, Person-Centred Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and Narrative Therapy as the main approaches she draws on. She and the client build a plan together using those methods to suit the presenting concerns.
Practical steps are central to her work. She offers assessment and therapeutic interventions and will work through patterns of behaviour, past trauma and coping strategies with clients. The style is collaborative and intent on helping people find new ways of relating to themselves and others.
If you are considering counselling, the next step is to use the online matching and booking flow to arrange an initial session and discuss a plan.
How her therapeutic approaches work for remote counselling
Many of her methods are named in the biography and can be used in remote work. Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical exercises; it is commonly used for anxiety, panic and low mood. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) teaches skills for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance, which can help with anger and mood instability. Person-Centred Therapy emphasises the client’s perspective and supports self-understanding, useful for processing grief or identity shifts.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. She will discuss the options with the client, consider the presenting issues and agree a plan together. Techniques and homework are adjusted as the work progresses to fit the person’s goals and preferences.
The practical benefits of working remotely include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time so therapy can sit alongside daily routines. Session format details are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can offer effective therapeutic work online when approach, timing and practical arrangements are agreed together.
