About Tammy
BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with seven years of professional experience. Tammy Payne helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. She works directly with what a person brings and balances patience with gentle challenge.
Tammy trained in the UK and spent two years working with organisations and charities, including Mind and Kinergy, where she focused on therapy for survivors of sexual abuse. Her practical experience covers a broad range of concerns, and she uses that background to guide sessions in clear, down-to-earth ways.
Her day-to-day way of working centres on developing self-compassion as a foundation. That means talking about how someone thinks and behaves, and noticing patterns that cause distress. Tammy is mindful of how long it can take to build trust and opens up at the client’s pace while intervening when a nudge is helpful.
She uses Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy and Existential Therapy to shape conversations. Sessions aim to identify unhelpful patterns, strengthen a person’s sense of self, and address difficult experiences such as trauma or past abuse.
People seeking therapy can expect straightforward conversation and practical reflection. Tammy will listen to the problem presented, offer observations and invite experiments or different ways of thinking to test between sessions. Her work emphasises steady progress rather than quick fixes.

How her approaches guide online work
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds influence current relationships and trust. It can help with difficulties in relating, issues around closeness and patterns that repeat in adult relationships. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s own experience and pacing. The counsellor listens without imposing solutions and reflects what is said to help clarify feelings and choices. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tammy will discuss goals and preferences with each person and then choose or combine methods that fit. She treats this as a collaborative process where adjustments are made if something does not feel helpful. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can help fit therapy into everyday life by removing travel and allowing sessions around work or family commitments. They can also make shorter check-ins easier when time is limited or permit audio-only contacts when video is difficult. Registered or accredited professionals often offer these flexible arrangements to make regular therapy more manageable.Sheet 3
