Tiziana Barton, BACP

Tiziana Barton is a counsellor who helps people facing midlife concerns and big life changes. She supports people dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, addictions, ADHD and related challenges. Her approach starts with a simple aim - to create a trusting relationship so people can talk honestly about what matters to them.

Tiziana is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She describes her work as integrative, drawing on several approaches to match what each person needs. Sessions focus on reconnecting with strengths, noticing patterns that cause pain, and learning practical ways to manage emotions and behaviour.

She believes many difficulties come from a disconnection from a core sense of self that can happen in childhood or after loss. In therapy she stays present and non-judgemental while helping people regain self-awareness and rebuild healthy patterns. This can help with mood, relationships, sleep, eating, and day-to-day coping.

Tiziana views counselling as sometimes short-term and problem-focused, and psychotherapy as deeper and longer work when needed. She encourages questions and believes feeling a connection with a counsellor from the start matters for progress. If someone wants to begin, she asks them to take the first step and reach out so they can talk about what would help.

With 19 years of practice, Tiziana aims to offer steady support that helps people find direction and meaning during stressful life stages including midlife shifts and losses.

How therapy approaches translate to online work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current closeness and trust. Online sessions can help people notice patterns in relationships and practise new ways of connecting and setting boundaries.

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person at the centre and relies on warmth, acceptance and active listening. Online meetings allow a counsellor to offer steady presence while clients speak about what feels most important to them.

Finding the right approach is usually a collaborative process. The counsellor will talk through goals, preferences and what feels manageable, then suggest ways of working that match those needs. That might mean starting with practical coping skills and then moving to deeper exploration as trust grows.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Generally, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer not to be on camera or who need quieter surroundings to focus. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt tools and exercises for remote sessions so therapy still addresses emotions, behaviour and relationships effectively.
