About Tabitha

Tabitha Galvez is a counsellor and coach with nine years of experience. She works with people who are managing anxiety, depression, grief and low self-esteem. She also supports those feeling the strain of caregiving and people facing parenting challenges.

Her approach is practical and warm, aiming to make conversations straightforward and useful. Tabitha creates a calm, non-judgemental space for people to talk things through. She encourages clients to notice the different parts of themselves and to make sense of conflicting feelings.

Background and approach

Work in sessions is collaborative and paced to suit each person’s needs. She uses gentle curiosity, patience and occasional humour to explore emotional concerns. Sessions often focus on improving how someone relates to themselves and others.

That might mean learning new ways to manage stress, building self-trust, or working through grief and loss. Tabitha draws on attachment-based ideas to understand close relationships and on emotionally-focused methods to clarify feelings. She also uses client-centred and solution-focused approaches to keep sessions grounded and goal-oriented.

These options are blended to fit each person rather than applied in a fixed way. People choose her when they want a steady, conversational style and practical steps to cope with life changes. She aims to help clients feel more confident, calm and able to make decisions that suit their values.

Reaching out can feel hard, and Tabitha offers a friendly professional to walk alongside that process.

Online support

How Tabitha’s Approaches Work Online

Attachment-based ideas look at how early connections shape how someone relates now, helping with issues like intimacy, abandonment and communication. Work focuses on recognising patterns and trying different responses in relationships. Client-centred therapy places the person’s own experience at the heart of sessions, using empathic listening and reflection to help clarify goals and values. Emotionally-focused therapy (EFT) helps people identify and name their emotions, which is useful for grief, anxiety and relationship worries.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, preferences and what they want to change. Together they choose which methods to use and adjust them as work progresses, so the plan stays practical and relevant.

Online therapy offers flexibility and a variety of ways to connect. Video calls let people read facial cues and body language, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for shorter check-ins, reflective journalling or when someone prefers writing. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving or other commitments, while keeping the focus on steady, practical support.
