About Tahseen

BACP member with four years' professional experience, Tahseen Rizvi works from the United Kingdom and offers counselling in English and Urdu. She supports people with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, parenting concerns, and a wide range of emotional and relational issues.

Tahseen uses several established counselling approaches. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. She also uses client-centred methods that focus on listening and reflecting what the client brings. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used when clients want practical tools to manage thoughts and feelings.

In a typical session she aims to create an open atmosphere where a person can talk without judgment. Sessions concentrate on what is most pressing for the client, whether that is coping after loss, managing anxiety, or working through difficult relationship dynamics. She also addresses issues such as self-esteem, addiction, sleep and eating concerns, anger, and work stress.

Tahseen works with specific areas including abandonment, attachment problems, codependency, dissociation, parenting and fatherhood issues, domestic violence, and multicultural concerns. She also supports people dealing with bipolar features, ADHD, narcissism, guilt and shame, and separation or divorce.

People who choose Tahseen can expect a straightforward style and a focus on practical steps as well as emotional understanding. To start, clients select the See online counselling options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How her approaches are used in online counselling

Attachment-based work looks at patterns from early relationships and how they show up now; online sessions use discussion and reflection to help identify and change those patterns. Client-centred counselling focuses on listening and responding to what the client brings, supporting people to explore feelings and make decisions at their own pace. Cognitive behavioural work offers practical strategies to manage unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and is often used for anxiety, low mood and stress.

Deciding which approach to use is part of the therapeutic process. The counsellor will work with the client to choose or combine methods based on their needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative conversation rather than a fixed plan from the outset.

Session formats are not specified here, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel, allowing shorter check-ins between in-person appointments, or removing the need to be on camera if that helps the person feel more comfortable. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often find online sessions help maintain continuity of care and keep therapy practical for everyday schedules.
