Tamasin Blake , NCPS

Tamasin Blake is a UK-based counsellor with eight years of clinical experience, offering a calm, compassionate, and holistic approach to emotional healing. Trained in client-centered listening, she prioritises empathic understanding and safe space for exploration, while also using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy when practical, solution-focused tools can support change. She holds the NCPS credential, a professional counselling qualification that signals formal training in therapeutic practice.

Her work recognises the connection between mind, body and spirit, and she encourages clients to notice how sleep, diet, movement and inner self-talk influence wellbeing. Tamasin provides non-judgemental listening to help people gain clarity about what is causing distress and to identify manageable steps toward feeling better. She specializes in trauma recovery and supporting people emerging from abusive relationships, including those affected by partners with strong narcissistic traits.

Beyond trauma, Tamasin works with a wide range of concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationships, grief, self-esteem, addictions, family difficulties, sleep problems, anger, career transitions, depression, ADHD and compassion fatigue. Her practice blends reflective listening with practical techniques so individuals can make meaningful changes at their own pace. She aims to support each person in improving how they treat themselves and moving forward with greater understanding and resilience.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Tamasin works from a client-centered framework that emphasises empathic listening and collaboration - the therapist follows the client's lead, creating space to explore feelings and values while helping people feel heard and understood. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used when practical strategies are helpful - it focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behaviour that contribute to distress and building small, achievable skills to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. Mindfulness Therapy is also part of her approach and involves simple present-moment practices and awareness techniques that can help with stress, rumination, and emotional regulation.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Tamasin helps clients identify what matches their needs, goals and preferences, and adapts methods as progress and circumstances change so the work remains practical and personally meaningful.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging offers flexibility for people balancing work, family or mobility needs. These options make it easier to access regular support from licensed professionals and therapists without geographic constraints, while allowing sessions to fit into daily life and routines.
