About Tuesday
Tuesday Benfield is a counsellor who aims to make therapy straightforward and approachable. She listens without judgement and helps people who feel stuck, overwhelmed or unsure what to do next. Her warm, down-to-earth style is meant to put people at ease from the first session.
She draws on a mix of approaches to match each person's needs. That can mean focussing on current thoughts and behaviours or spending time looking at attachment and past patterns that affect relationships.
Background and approach
Sessions can include practical strategies and gentle reflection so people leave with something they can try between meetings. Tuesday has four years of direct counselling experience and holds BACP credentials. She also has a background working in therapeutic roles for the NHS and in community settings, including work related to bereavement, domestic violence and addictions.
That range of experience informs how she notices and responds to problems that bring people into therapy. Common areas she supports include stress, anxiety, trauma and relationship concerns, along with issues such as low self-esteem, grief, parenting strain and sleep or eating difficulties. There are also focused interests in abandonment, attachment issues and caregiver stress.
Her practice is flexible about short- or long-term work. New clients begin with a conversation about what matters to them, then agree goals and a simple plan. The overall aim is to help people develop clearer coping options and more workable ways of living day to day.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses simple practical exercises to reduce symptoms and build new habits. It often suits worry, sleep problems and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and communication, helping people understand why they react in certain ways in relationships.Finding the right way to work is part of the process and will be decided together. The therapist will talk through goals, try different techniques, and adjust methods based on what helps most. This collaborative approach means the work changes as progress is made and priorities shift.
Online sessions can take place by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, offering flexibility to fit around work and family life. Video is helpful for full conversations and interactive exercises. Phone calls use less bandwidth and can be simpler to fit into a busy day. Text-based or chat formats are useful for short check-ins, written reflections, or when people prefer not to be on camera. Overall, online work makes it easier to access regular support and to keep momentum between sessions.
