About Tammy
Tammy Lewis is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years' experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low mood and relationship difficulties, and she lists social anxiety and phobia among her focus areas. Tammy describes common themes she helps with as self-esteem, coping with life changes and issues that come from childhood experiences.
Tammy offers mostly conversational sessions where people talk through specific problems or more general feelings. She may suggest information, practical ideas and short exercises to try between sessions. She does not direct clients on what to think or do but discusses options and next steps together.
Her background combines a few therapeutic approaches. She uses client-centred methods to build understanding, cognitive behavioural ideas to address unhelpful thinking and psychodynamic ideas to look at how past experiences affect present patterns. This mix is used to help with feelings of isolation, shame, guilt, difficulties with communication and problems at work.
Sessions are arranged weekly where possible and are conducted by phone or video. Tammy aims to keep a regular day and time each week to provide continuity while being as flexible as she can within those options. The practice works through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.
To begin people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first appointment. Tammy’s work is aimed at adults in the UK and sessions are provided in English only.
How Tammy uses talking therapies online
Tammy draws on client-centred work and cognitive behavioural therapy when meeting people online. Client-centred work focuses on listening closely and helping people make sense of their own thoughts and feelings. It suits anyone who wants a thoughtful, conversational space to talk about relationships or low mood. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at thinking patterns and behaviours and offers practical exercises to try between sessions; this can help with anxiety, worry and social anxiety and phobia.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tammy will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then suggest ways of working together. This is a collaborative process and plans can change as needs and progress become clearer.
Her sessions are run by video or phone, organised on a weekly basis where possible. People who need shorter check-ins or do better without being on camera can choose phone conversations, while video allows face-to-face interaction when that fits. Confirm the exact session options before booking so they match day-to-day life. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work, reduce travel time and allow regular weekly contact that helps maintain progress.
