About

My name is Tanis Thacker

During the completion of my masters degree in counselling, I conducted extensive research into romance fraud. I was curious to learn about the experiences of the victims of these scammers. I am now a registered psychologist (provisional) and want to support you as you restore your sense of self and recover from not only the financial losses, but the grief associated with losing a person you cared for.
