Tanya Campbell Rochester

I am a warm and compassionate integrative counsellor with a person-centred foundation, supporting children, young people, and adults for over six years. I offer a safe, calm, and confidential space where you can feel heard, understood, and accepted without judgement. Reaching out for support can feel like a big step, and I aim to make that first step easier by providing a therapeutic relationship built on trust, empathy, and genuine care. My approach is guided by your individual needs, allowing us to work together at a pace that feels comfortable for you. I support clients experiencing anxiety, low self-esteem, the impact of past experiences, abuse, neglect, and adolescent challenges. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply need space to talk, I will work alongside you to help you better understand yourself, strengthen your sense of self, and move towards meaningful, lasting change. Alongside my counselling work, I have volunteered extensively with children and young people, deepening my understanding of emotional and developmental experiences. During the Covid-19 pandemic, I also supported individuals on a mental health and wellbeing helpline, offering reassurance and connection during a time of great uncertainty. I believe everyone deserves to feel safe, supported, and empowered in their life, and I consider it a privilege to walk alongside my clients on their journey. I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and currently offer counselling via video and telephone.

I am qualified to Level 2 in British Sign Language and am currently studying Level 3, to communicate more effectively with deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals, a skill I consider valuable as a counsellor.

I'm an integrative counsellor who tailors therapy to each client by combining person-centred, psychodynamic and techniques. I work collaboratively to identify patterns, develop coping skills and build resilience for issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma and relationship difficulties.

My approach is integrative and person-centred, characterised by gentleness, attentiveness, and respect for each individual's unique experience. I view clients as the experts of their own lives, fully capable of growth and self-understanding. I offer a non-judgemental space where empathy, active listening, and emotional attunement are central to the therapeutic relationship. This supportive environment allows clients to explore their thoughts and feelings safely and at a pace that feels right for them. I work with a range of issues, including abuse, neglect, past experiences, self-belief, and adolescent challenges. My aim is to support clients in making meaningful change guided by their personal goals. I believe everyone has the right to move forward feeling safe, comfortable, and empowered. I encourage regular reviews of our work together to ensure that therapy remains helpful, relevant, and aligned with your needs.
