About Tineke
Tineke Zwinkels is a counsellor registered with the BACP with four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, relationship difficulties and anger. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking rather than labels or quick fixes.
She helps people notice how events influence their feelings, thoughts and choices. Conversations aim to make sense of difficult experiences and to find different ways of responding. That can mean looking at patterns that keep problems repeating, and trying small changes to break those patterns.
Tineke uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide talks and practical exercises. She encourages reflection and behaviour changes that build everyday coping skills. Clients can expect straightforward discussions about what’s happening now and what might help next.
Her work also covers attachment and codependency issues, control struggles, guilt and shame, loneliness and questions about life purpose. She also supports people dealing with panic, phobias, post-traumatic stress and workplace difficulties.
Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts clients internationally. The service uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and fees vary by location. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and book an initial session.
How her approaches translate to online work
Many of her sessions draw on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on thinking and behaviour. One common approach addresses how thoughts influence feelings and actions, helping people test and revise unhelpful thinking patterns to reduce anxiety and anger. Another approach looks at traumatic or painful events and how they continue to affect daily life, aiming to build practical coping steps and reduce distress.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss the options with each person and agree on methods that fit their goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process that often combines talking, practical exercises and short between-session tasks to try new ways of handling situations.
The practical benefits of online sessions include being able to fit therapy around work or family commitments and avoiding travel time. The biography does not specify session delivery methods, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to schedule regular check-ins, move quickly from assessment to active work, and maintain momentum between sessions.
