About Taya

Taya Bassett is a counsellor registered with the NCPS and has five years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety and relationship strain, and she also supports those facing anger, grief and changes in life circumstances.

Her approach is practical and conversational. She listens to what matters most and then helps people untangle the patterns that keep causing pain. Sessions cover issues such as self-esteem, motivation, sleeping difficulties and the impact of past trauma and abuse. Taya also addresses problems around addiction, intimacy-related concerns and career pressures.

People meet Taya to talk through family problems, communication and control issues, or the strain of caregiving and blended family dynamics. She helps with topics like abandonment, adoption and attachment concerns, and the fallout from divorce or separation. Where worry about anger appears, sessions focus on recognising triggers and finding different ways to respond.

Her work uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to shape a clear plan with each person. That plan might include practical skills for managing intense feelings, attention to relationships, and steps to rebuild confidence. Progress is tracked in straightforward ways so people know what they are working on.

To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first meeting. The initial session is used to set goals and agree the next steps together.

How therapeutic approaches work with online sessions

Taya draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to structure sessions. One common approach is skills-based work that teaches practical strategies for managing strong feelings and stress. This helps with everyday problems such as anger outbursts, workplace frustration and sleep disruption.

Another approach focuses on relationship patterns and communication. That work looks at how interactions escalate and what to change to reduce conflict and rebuild trust. It is useful for people who want clearer boundaries, better conversations and less resentment.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to choose approaches that match the person’s goals, needs and preferences. Plans are adjusted as progress is reviewed so sessions stay relevant and focused.

Session formats are not specified in the provided biography, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online appointments can make therapy easier to fit into a busy life, from shorter check-ins during a work break to longer sessions outside normal hours. Many people find that remote sessions remove travel time and help maintain continuity when schedules are changeable.
