About Tahseen
Counsellor Tahseen Rizvi is a BACP member with four years' experience working in the United Kingdom. She helps people with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting issues and a broad range of other concerns. Tahseen speaks English and Urdu and accepts international clients.
Tahseen focuses on listening and practical discussion in sessions. She uses approaches such as attachment work, client-centred conversation, cognitive behavioural ideas and psychodynamic thinking to help people understand patterns and responses. Sessions are straightforward and aimed at making concerns easier to manage.
People come to her for help with low mood, depression and bipolar symptoms, and with problems such as addiction, anger, sleep or eating difficulties. She also supports those coping with relationship and intimacy-related issues, family strains, separation and fatherhood questions. Additional focus areas include attachment and abandonment worries, body image and codependency.
Her way of working blends exploration of past experiences with present-day coping steps. That can mean looking at how early relationships shape current reactions, then trying simple strategies to change unhelpful patterns. Tahseen keeps explanations clear and uses tools from different approaches as they fit the person's needs.
Before a first session she asks people to share background information so a suitable plan can be made. The emphasis is on steady, practical progress rather than quick fixes or labels.
Therapeutic approaches and online counselling
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships influence current ways of relating. It helps people who notice repeated patterns in close relationships or who struggle with trust and intimacy. Client-centred therapy focuses on open conversation and listening. It aims to give the person space to describe what matters and to make their own decisions. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, breaks worries and behaviours into manageable parts and tests practical steps that may reduce distress. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and decide together which methods to try. That collaborative testing helps identify what feels most useful for the person in front of her. Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as the profile does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around work or family life. It can allow shorter check-ins, avoid travel, or make sessions possible when being on camera is difficult. Registered or accredited professionals commonly offer online options to help people access regular appointments more easily.Areas of expertise
