About Tamasin
Tamasin Blake is a counsellor (NCPS) with eight years' experience based in the United Kingdom. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, addictions, sleep problems, anger, career concerns, depression and coping with life changes. Tamasin also lists compassion fatigue and ADHD among her focus areas.
Her style is grounded and listening-led. She uses client-centred conversation to help people make sense of what they are feeling. Where it is helpful, she uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses.
Tamasin pays attention to everyday routines as part of recovery. She asks about sleep, diet and activity to spot practical, small changes that can help mood and energy. She also talks about internal self-talk and patterns people repeat in relationships.
She has particular experience supporting people after abusive relationships and with trauma from difficult life events. That includes work with people affected by partners who display strong narcissistic personality traits and with separation or divorce concerns.
Sessions are framed around clear goals and steady steps rather than vague promises. Clients can expect guided conversation, practical strategies from CBT when useful, and reflection on daily habits that support mental health. To begin, people follow the advertised booking steps and complete a short matching questionnaire to schedule an initial session.
Tamasin writes and talks in plain language and aims to make therapy something people can fit into their lives. She offers help in English for people located in the United Kingdom.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on careful listening and reflection. In practice this means the counsellor asks open questions, reflects back what she hears and helps people clarify their own priorities and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses short exercises to test different responses to unhelpful thinking. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase noticing of body and mind states.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Tamasin will discuss goals and preferences with each person and choose which techniques to try together. That collaborative process helps decide whether more CBT exercises, more client-centred listening, or mindfulness practice is most useful at any stage.
The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions around daily life and cutting travel time. Confirm the current session options before booking to know which formats are available. Online sessions can allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, spoken conversation without being on camera if preferred, or more structured CBT exercises that are easy to share in a scheduled slot. Registered or accredited professionals adapt methods to what a person needs and to what fits their routine.
