About me
Life can feel overwhelming at times. You might be struggling with anxiety, overthinking, low mood, low self-esteem, or simply feeling stuck and unsure where to turn. Many people feel exhausted by their thoughts, very hard on themselves, or unsure how to cope with difficult emotions.
I’m Tammy, a qualified therapeutic counsellor based in Liverpool. I offer a warm, supportive space where you can slow down, talk openly, and feel truly heard and understood.
Counselling gives you time that is just for you – a space where you can explore what’s going on in your life without judgement. Some sessions may feel emotional or challenging as we gently explore difficult experiences, but you won’t face them alone. Together we can begin to understand what’s been weighing on you, helping you develop greater self-compassion and find ways to feel calmer and more in control.
Many of my clients come to counselling feeling overwhelmed, self-critical, or disconnected from themselves. Through our work together, I aim to help you understand your thoughts, feelings, and patterns more clearly so that you can begin to move forward with greater confidence and kindness toward yourself.
You might be feeling:
• overwhelmed by your thoughts or emotions
• anxious, constantly overthinking, or expecting the worst
• very critical of yourself or struggling with self-confidence
• stuck in patterns that feel difficult to change
• lonely or like no one truly understands how you feel
• unsure how to cope with difficult emotions
If any of this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Many people come to counselling feeling this way.
How I Work
I offer one-hour counselling sessions in person, online, or by phone in a safe, non-judgemental environment where you can feel supported and listened to. I offer appointments during late mornings, afternoons, and early evenings to provide flexibility around your schedule.
I work with adults facing a range of challenges, including anxiety, overthinking, low mood, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, loneliness, stress, life transitions, and the impact of past or childhood experiences.
Many of the people I work with struggle with being very hard on themselves or feeling emotionally overwhelmed. Together we can explore these experiences, helping you understand where they may come from and develop new ways of relating to yourself with more compassion and understanding.
My approach is integrative, meaning I draw from different therapeutic approaches depending on what feels most helpful for you. These include Person-Centred Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Inner Child work. This allows me to tailor our sessions to your individual needs and experiences.
I believe the relationship between counsellor and client is at the heart of effective therapy. My aim is to create a space where you feel safe enough to talk about things you may never have said out loud before. As we explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences together, new understanding and insights can begin to emerge, helping you move forward in ways that feel meaningful for you.
We will work at a pace that feels comfortable, giving you the time and space to explore what matters most to you.
What to Do Next - Contact Me Today
If something you’ve read resonates with you, please feel free to get in touch. You can contact me via email to arrange a free 20-minute phone consultation. This gives us the opportunity to briefly talk about what’s going on for you, what you hope to gain from counselling, and whether working together feels like the right fit.
Your First Session
During our first session, we will go through a working agreement and spend some time exploring what has brought you to counselling. This helps us begin building a foundation for our work together.
Sessions are entirely your space. You might want to talk about specific issues, or simply explore how you have been feeling. While I may offer reflections and insights, I won’t tell you what you should think or do. Counselling is about helping you understand yourself more deeply and finding the path that feels right for you.
Response Time
I aim to respond to all enquiries as soon as possible and within 48 hours (excluding weekends). If you haven’t heard back from me, please check your spam or junk folder in case my reply has landed there.

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
