About Tatyana
BACP. 16 years of professional experience. Tatyana Sibthorpe works with adults on a wide range of concerns including addictions, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, career stress, depression, anxiety and grief. She offers counselling in English and Russian and accepts international clients.
Tatyana describes her approach as responsive to each person. She uses methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer ways of thinking and relating that a person can use day to day.
In session she will listen and then work with the client to set goals and plan next steps. Conversations may include talking through patterns in relationships, coping strategies for stress and cravings, or skills for managing mood and anxiety. The emphasis is on what can be tried between sessions as well as what happens in the room.
Tatyana has experience supporting people with issues around identity and intimacy, parenting and family concerns, body image and eating, sleep problems, chronic illness and caregiver stress. She also lists work on abandonment, attachment issues and communication problems among her focus areas.
She asks people to begin by using the site’s matching process to schedule a first session. Sessions are arranged through the platform and follow-up planning is part of the counselling process.
Therapeutic approaches and how online counselling can fit your life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, stress and life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and communication, which can help with intimacy issues and relationship problems.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and agree a plan together. That plan may draw on one or more methods and will be revised as progress is made.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking as the biography does not list them. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce time spent travelling and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it possible to work with a counsellor in another location or country. Registered or accredited professionals can use online sessions to offer the same conversational and skill-based work as face-to-face counselling.
