About Tuesday
Tuesday Benfield is a counsellor who aims to make people feel heard and understood. She presents as down to earth and friendly, and she brings a practical, open-minded attitude to sessions. Tuesday emphasises building a trusting relationship so clients can talk about difficult subjects without fear of judgement.
She trained in integrative therapeutic counselling and holds a BACP accreditation. She has experience working in therapeutic services for the NHS and in private practice. That background includes bereavement work and many roles supporting people affected by trauma and abuse.
Tuesday uses a flexible, person-centred approach. She draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment ideas and mindfulness, choosing methods that fit each person. Sessions are described as a space to explore feelings, thoughts and behaviours at a pace that suits the client.
Her work has involved domestic violence services, street outreach, rape and abuse support, addictions work, and family liaison. She also supports people dealing with grief, separation, parenting strain, and codependency concerns, among other issues.
In practical terms she offers both short-term and longer-term therapy and keeps learning through workshops and seminars. Her aim is to help people identify coping strategies and possible routes to longer-term change through conversation and practical tools.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to small actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, avoidance and situations where someone feels stuck. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on the here and now by identifying thought and behaviour patterns and trying practical changes to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. Mindfulness-based ideas teach simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and ground someone during high stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and together they will try ways of working that fit the person's needs. That collaborative process helps shape whether sessions lean more on ACT, CBT, attachment ideas or mindfulness techniques.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, remove travel time, and allow quicker check-ins between appointments. It also lets someone choose a quieter time of day or a shorter session if that helps them manage work, caring responsibilities or energy levels.
