Aisha Tasneem, BACP

Aisha Tasneem helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief or low mood. She works with those facing relationship strain, parenting pressures, addiction concerns and people coping with major life changes. Her name appears up front so visitors know who they would meet in sessions.

Aisha draws on a mix of practical talking approaches. She adapts techniques to what each person needs, keeping sessions straightforward and focused on small, manageable steps. Conversations aim to clarify what matters to the client and to build skills that can be used between meetings.

She holds BACP, which indicates registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. That background informs a relational style that values respect and listening. Aisha has five years of experience working with common mental health concerns and complex life stressors.

In a session she will listen first, then suggest tasks or ways of thinking that can reduce distress. Techniques may include exploring patterns in relationships, noticing unhelpful thoughts, and practising new ways to respond to strong feelings. Discussions are paced to suit the person and their current circumstances.

People choose her when they want a practical, person-focused approach rather than technical jargon. She aims to help people regain clearer thinking, steadier emotions and better day-to-day coping. Sessions are offered from the United Kingdom and are conducted in English.

Approaches that guide online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take action towards those values, even when difficult thoughts or feelings arise. It is useful for anxiety, stress and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it can help with anxiety, low mood and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy attends to relationship patterns and early bonds to understand present-day difficulties and improve how people relate to others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will explore what a person wants to achieve and suggest methods that fit their goals and preferences. This is done collaboratively, with adjustments as therapy progresses so the plan stays relevant to the person's needs.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or ongoing text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation across distances, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and mobility considerations, while keeping the focus on meaningful progress.
