About Tetiana
Tetiana Brotherton offers support for people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. She provides a calm, non-judgemental presence for those who feel overwhelmed or stuck. Tetiana writes simply and listens closely to understand each person’s difficulties. She speaks English, Russian and Ukrainian and is based in the United Kingdom.
Tetiana uses a mix of practical approaches to help people make changes. She draws on Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons to change, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and try different behaviours. Client-Centred Therapy shapes the way she listens, while Mindfulness and Solution-Focused ideas are woven into sessions when they suit someone’s goals.
Her background includes three years of clinical practice and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That experience includes work around compulsive sexual behaviours and recovery, and supporting people with childhood trauma, bereavement, low self-esteem and relationship difficulties. Tetiana aims to create straightforward plans that match what each person wants to achieve.
Sessions are offered in a warm, non-judgemental style. Tetiana encourages small, practical steps and checks in on progress. She supports people who want clearer boundaries, better coping strategies, or to make a fresh start.
To begin, prospective clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to the therapist’s availability. The process is intended to be simple and respectful of each person’s pace.

How Tetiana uses different approaches online
Many of Tetiana’s methods translate well to remote work. Motivational Interviewing involves asking open questions and reflecting back what people say to help them find their own reasons for change; it can be useful for addictions, stuck habits and ambivalence. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small changes in behaviour, which is helpful for anxiety and low mood. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises a warm, empathetic listening style that helps people feel heard and able to explore difficult topics.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Tetiana aims to agree with each person which methods suit their goals and to adjust those choices as progress is made. The process is collaborative and based on what the person wants to focus on.
Session formats are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people use quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera when they prefer, helping therapy fit around everyday responsibilities. -
