About Tahseen

Tahseen Rizvi is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, and parenting concerns. Tahseen also supports people facing relationship tension, self-esteem struggles, addiction issues and mood concerns such as depression and bipolar.

Tahseen uses a few different ways of working to suit what each person brings. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. She also uses client-centred methods that keep the person’s concerns and choices at the heart of sessions. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used when it helps to spot and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour.

Sessions tend to be conversational and practical. Tahseen listens for patterns people want to change and helps them try small steps between meetings. She pays attention to family roles and parenting stresses, and she will talk through specific problems like sleep, eating, anger and intimacy-related issues.

She also offers support around more complex areas such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, dissociation and the effects of domestic violence or divorce. Multicultural concerns and fatherhood issues are included among her focus areas.

Tahseen works in English and Urdu. If someone wants to begin, they are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online booking process. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions fit in

Attachment-based therapy looks at the patterns between people and where they come from. It can help when relationship habits, abandonment worries or attachment issues keep repeating and make daily life harder. Client-centred therapy focuses on the person’s concerns and choices, giving time for them to be heard and to decide what to work on. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and tries practical changes to improve mood and reduce anxiety.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, past experiences and preferences, and then suggest which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as the sessions progress.

Confirm the exact online session formats before booking so you know what is offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week. It can reduce travel time, allow a shorter check-in when needed, and make it simpler to arrange meetings across time zones for international clients. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists generally use these options to help people keep therapy practical and manageable alongside everyday responsibilities.
