Dr Tanya Augustine

Dr Augustine is a counselling psychologist who offers a range of therapies that can be tailored to individual needs and circumstances. Therapy may involve working on a clearly defined problem area and may be time-limited. Alternatively, it may be more appropriate to work in an open-ended contract in which an individual can explore their issues further.

Dr Augustine's approach is collaborative and involves working together on an agreed focus for therapy. The therapeutic relationship is crucial in determining how helpful therapy can be. It is important that individuals feel that they can trust the therapist they decide to work with.

Dr Augustine has completed further training in Compassion Focussed Therapy, Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy, EMDR (Eye Movement desensitisation and reprocessing) and EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique). These approaches bring together a broad range of theories and have a strong evidence base in helping people manage their emotional health, and address difficulties associated with trauma, chronic stress and adverse life experiences.
