About Tuesday
Tuesday Benfield is a counsellor with four years' experience and BACP accreditation, practising in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, intimacy concerns, self-esteem struggles, ADHD, addictions and relationship and family problems. She also supports issues such as grief, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting strain, anger and career worries.
Tuesday takes a straightforward, down-to-earth approach. She treats each person as an individual and listens without judgement. Sessions are practical and human; she draws on life experience alongside therapeutic skills to make sense of what is happening now.
Her background includes an integrative diploma in therapeutic counselling accredited by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and work in NHS therapeutic services. She has experience in bereavement counselling and roles supporting domestic violence, rape and abuse survivors. She has also worked with addictions, PTSD, OCD, and a range of emotional and behavioural difficulties.
In session she uses a mix of approaches to fit the person in front of her. She often draws on person-centred ideas to shape the counselling relationship, and uses cognitive behavioural techniques to manage current thoughts, feelings and behaviours. Mindfulness and attachment-based ideas also inform her work when they suit the client.
Tuesday offers both short- and long-term therapy and regularly updates her skills through workshops and seminars. She aims to help people clarify what is troubling them and to develop coping strategies and practical tools that can support longer-term change.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online counselling
Tuesday often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in her work. ACT helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and choose actions that match their values, which can be useful for issues like codependency or avoidance. CBT focuses on the here-and-now links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours, helping to develop skills to manage anxiety, low mood or unhelpful patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and help decide which methods to use. That decision is collaborative and may change as therapy progresses.
Confirm current session options before booking as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life, for example by removing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins between commitments. Some people find video sessions useful for face-to-face interaction, while others prefer audio for a lower-tech option. Registered or accredited professionals often work with clients internationally, and she accepts international clients, so the practicalities of scheduling can be arranged to suit your routine.
