Tanya Jespersen

I am a qualified and experienced couples and trauma counsellor and can help you understand the impact from trauma, anxiety, depression, low self worth or any difficult change in your life. Self-awareness is key to becoming more resilient and confident. I can help you manage anxiety, triggers and flashbacks in order to start living a more fulfilling life. My core training is in Humanistic Existential therapy in addition to a diploma in Trauma Counselling.

A large part of my experience is working with clients who have suffered trauma as a result of sexual violence or abuse, but I also work extensively with clients who struggle with anxiety, depression, bereavement, loss of identity and self worth. 

Counselling gives you a chance to understand yourself (and your partner) better in order to start changing parts of yourself and/or your relationship. Whether you are an individual or a couple who are seeking awareness and clarity, I am here to listen without judgement.

All of us, at times, need somewhere safe to talk and be listened to. I provide therapy to both couples and individuals aged 18+. If you feel anxious, unhappy in your life or if you are going through a major life event, I offer a space for you to gain understanding of why you are feeling the way you are and how to move on or change old habits and patterns. I can help you safely explore your past and how it has influenced your present and help you find ways to start changing your future. 

If you are having face to face counselling, you will need to fill in some forms the beginning of your session. This will be done before the session if your session is online or on the phone.
