About Tiziana

Tiziana Barton is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has 19 years of experience. She works with people who are coping with life changes and questions about direction, as well as concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, ADHD, addiction, grief and relationship difficulties. She also lists support for issues around career, parenting, intimacy and eating or sleeping problems. Sessions are conducted in English and are based in the United Kingdom.

Tiziana uses an integrative approach that draws on several established therapies. That means she adapts the way she works to the person in front of her rather than following a single method. Practical steps and reflective conversation appear alongside attention to attachment patterns and emotional responding. She describes therapy as a chance to reconnect with inner resources that may have been lost after difficult events or upbringing.

In conversation she focuses on building trust and steady presence. Meetings tend to emphasise noticing patterns, increasing self-awareness and practising ways to manage distressing feelings. Clients can expect discussion of specific behaviours and thoughts when that helps, and time to name painful memories or losses when needed. The aim is to help people see new perspectives on old problems.

Tiziana frames shorter, goal-focused counselling and longer-term psychotherapy as different options depending on what someone wants to work on. She highlights that simple acceptance and being listened to often creates change alongside practical techniques. Her background combines relational ideas with cognitive and skills-based tools for coping.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange a first session. Costs vary by location and sessions are paid through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. International clients are not currently accepted.

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Tiziana uses Attachment-Based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach pays attention to how people connect, respond to closeness and handle loss, and it can help with relationship struggles and long-standing trust issues.

She also works with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) techniques. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, which suits problems like anxiety, low mood and some aspects of addiction. DBT offers practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving emotional regulation.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through your goals and preferences and help decide which methods to use. That discussion is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the exact session formats before booking as the profile does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings around work, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some formats also demand less video bandwidth or let you take a session without being on camera, which can suit quieter surroundings or a tight schedule. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt these approaches to an online setting to focus on emotional processing and practical skill building.
