About Bushra
BACP. 7 years' experience. Bushra Yassin works with people on grief, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, and a wide range of life stresses including anxiety, depression and addiction. She uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based work, Client-Centred methods, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Jungian ideas. Sessions are offered in English and Urdu and international clients are accepted.
Bushra focuses on practical conversation about how life events have affected everyday functioning. She often helps people who are coping with bereavement, domestic violence, self‑esteem issues and adjusting after big changes. She also supports those dealing with chronic illness, body image, addiction and communication or commitment issues.
Her style favours listening first, then working together to try small changes that feel doable. That can mean looking at thoughts and behaviours with CBT, noticing present experience with ACT, or exploring attachment patterns that affect relationships. Jungian ideas may be used to look at symbols and personal meaning.
Bushra has worked with women from different cultural and religious backgrounds and pays attention to how culture affects daily life and relationships. She describes her approach as respectful and sensitive, adapting conversations to each persons situation and goals.
Practical matters such as fees vary with location and sessions run via a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session via the See online counselling options button.
Approaches used and how online counselling works
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and to choose actions that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, depression and coping with life changes.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationship patterns shape how someone connects with others. It can be useful for intimacy issues, trust and communication problems.
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the client can find their own solutions and make decisions about next steps. This approach supports self‑esteem and clarity about choices.
Finding the right approach is part of counselling. The counsellor will work with the client to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and may combine elements from different approaches over time.
The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving or travel. It can reduce time spent commuting, allow shorter check‑in meetings when needed and make it simpler to have appointments from a different location or country.
