About Tamasin

Tamasin Blake is a counsellor registered with the NCPS and has eight years of practice. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, addictions, sleep problems, anger, career concerns and depression. Her practice also includes support for codependency and related issues such as attachment and control struggles.

Tamasin bases her work on client-centred listening. Sessions begin with the client’s immediate concerns. She listens, reflects, and helps people find clearer ways to understand their situation. When helpful, she draws on cognitive behavioural therapy to look at unhelpful thinking patterns and practical behaviour changes.

She pays attention to the link between thoughts, body and daily routine. That can mean talking about sleep, diet, exercise or the inner voice someone uses about themselves. These are practical topics in sessions, not abstract ideas, and she encourages small, manageable adjustments.

Tamasin has experience supporting people who have left abusive relationships and those affected by partners with strong narcissistic traits. She works with people dealing with trauma from life events and with those recovering from relationship harms. Her approach is steady and conversational, focused on clarity and understanding.

People can expect straightforward discussion about patterns that keep repeating in relationships. Tamasin offers a listening way of working alongside CBT tools when they suit a person’s goals. She asks about what the client wants to change and helps plan realistic next steps.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on careful listening and reflecting what a person says. It helps people feel heard and work out what they want to change by using their own experience as the lead. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses straightforward strategies to shift thinking patterns and behaviour. Mindfulness Therapy encourages noticing present-moment experience and simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and ease stress.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss your goals and preferences and together you will decide which methods to try first. That collaboration helps shape a plan that fits your situation and what you want from sessions.

The original biography does not list which online session formats are used. Please confirm the available session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also make it simpler to include practical exercises between meetings so progress can be tested in everyday life.
