About Tetiana
Tetiana Brotherton is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief and depression, including concerns such as codependency and attachment issues.
Tetiana sees individuals who bring a mix of problems from current crises to older wounds. She talks through how compulsive behaviours, low self-esteem and difficult relationships affect daily life. Sessions are straightforward and focused on what is getting in the way of being able to cope and feel steady.
Her way of working draws on client-centred conversations so the person leads the topic and pace. She uses cognitive behavioural tools to map thoughts and behaviours that keep problems repeating. Mindfulness techniques and solution-focused steps are added where helpful to manage distress and try small changes between meetings.
Tetiana has experience supporting people with bereavement, childhood trauma, self-harm history and issues related to sexual behaviour and recovery. She also works with concerns around body image, communication difficulties, family of origin problems and divorce or separation.
Sessions can be conducted in English, Russian or Ukrainian. Practical next steps are to complete an intake questionnaire and then arrange a first appointment, where together they agree short-term aims and ways to measure progress.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following what the person brings to a session. Online that means conversations that let the client set priorities and feel heard while exploring difficult feelings. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and actions and tests small changes. Delivered remotely, CBT often uses brief exercises and worksheets that can be reviewed between meetings.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Tetiana will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs and day-to-day life. That may mean combining client-centred talking with CBT tasks or adding mindfulness practices for stress management.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work, childcare or travel. They also allow for shorter check-ins, flexible scheduling and quieter surroundings that help keep meetings practical and consistent.
