Tanika Mancer, BACP

Tanika Mancer is a BACP-registered counsellor and mental health coach with seven years of practice. She meets people where they are and aims to make the first step feel less daunting. Her style is warm and non-judgemental, and she focuses on helping clients regain confidence and find clearer direction.

She supports people facing anxiety, stress, low mood, burnout and life transitions. Work-related pressures and rebuilding confidence at work are a common focus in her sessions. She also addresses concerns such as relationship strain, grief, trauma and addiction in one-to-one work.

Tanika works from a person-centred foundation, giving space for clients to talk and feel heard. She combines that with practical tools when helpful, including techniques drawn from cognitive behavioural and solution-focused approaches. Sessions aim to build clarity and simple strategies clients can use between meetings.

In sessions she moves at a pace chosen with the client. Conversations explore thoughts, feelings and patterns that get in the way. The goal is to help people feel more in control and able to take next steps in daily life.

People come to her for help with self-esteem, parenting strain, sleep and eating issues, ADHD and compassion fatigue among other concerns. She accepts international clients and runs therapy from the United Kingdom.

Approaches that guide online work

Tanika draws on client-centred practice to prioritise the person in front of her. This approach focuses on listening, reflecting and helping clients find their own answers, which is useful for issues like low confidence, life changes and relationship concerns.

She also uses elements of cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. CBT-style techniques offer straightforward ways to spot unhelpful patterns and try different behaviours between sessions, often helpful for anxiety, stress and sleep problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss goals and preferences and suggest ways of working that fit the individual's needs. This is a collaborative process and plans can change as the client learns more about what helps.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people meet with a registered professional without relocating, which can help if local choices are limited.
