Tabitha Galvez , BACP

Tabitha Galvez is a counsellor and coach with nine years of experience helping people facing anxiety, depression, complex grief and low self-esteem. She works with caregivers and others under chronic stress, offering a steady, non-judgemental space to talk. Tabitha uses practical conversation and compassionate listening to help people feel understood and less alone.

Her approach invites clients to notice the different parts of themselves and how those parts interact. She describes therapy as a process of getting to know these parts with kindness and curiosity. That gentle curiosity can reduce reactivity and open up new ways of coping.

Sessions are conversational and collaborative. Tabitha blends emotion-focused work with attachment-aware thinking to help clients understand patterns in their relationships and inner life. She also draws on solution-focused ideas to identify small, achievable steps people can take between sessions.

People often come for help with relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting concerns, career stress, or recovering from trauma and abuse. Tabitha also supports those facing identity-related questions, including LGBT concerns, and people coping with life transitions.

Tabitha is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She offers therapy in English from the United Kingdom and has experience working with a wide range of emotional and practical difficulties. If someone is unsure where to start, she works collaboratively to set manageable goals and to plan the next steps.

How Tabitha works online and what the approaches involve

Tabitha uses attachment-based ideas to help people understand how early bonds shape current feelings and relationship patterns. This can be useful for those coping with intimacy issues, abandonment fears or attachment wounds. Client-centred therapy is part of her practice too, which means sessions focus on the person in front of her, listening without judgement and following the client’s pace and priorities.

She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy, which helps people identify and stay with strong feelings so they can be processed and shifted. EFT is often helpful for people working through grief, relationship distress or intense emotional reactions. Choosing the right approach is a shared process; Tabitha will discuss options and adapt methods to fit the client’s goals, preferences and the practical realities they bring to sessions.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to work together. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction and visual cues, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can suit shorter check-ins, and live chat or text-based messaging can be used for quick reflections or ongoing support between longer sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or other commitments and to continue continuity of care when attending in-person sessions is difficult.
