Riffat Jabeen offers therapy grounded in client-centred and attachment-based ideas.
About Riffat
Riffat Jabeen offers therapy grounded in client-centred and attachment-based ideas. She draws on approaches like cognitive behavioural therapy and mindfulness to help people manage anxiety, low mood, stress and trauma. Riffat uses practical techniques alongside time to listen.
Her work aims to help people feel steadier and more able to cope with day-to-day life. Riffat has five years of experience in the field and practises in the United Kingdom. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and follows its professional standards.
Background and approach
Her background includes supporting people through grief, relationship and intimacy issues, and the effects of abuse and domestic violence. In sessions she focuses on what matters most to each person. That might mean looking at early attachment patterns, learning skills to reduce anxious thinking, or practising mindfulness to manage stress and sleeping problems.
She draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas to help people understand feelings that drive relationship difficulties. Riffat also works with concerns such as compassion fatigue, bipolar issues, ADHD and body image. She supports people dealing with major life changes, career stress, or chronic health problems.
Where helpful, she uses short practical exercises and longer reflective discussion to balance coping strategies with deeper exploration. Therapy is collaborative and paced to the individual. Riffat encourages clients to try techniques between sessions and to set goals that feel realistic.
Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and then suggest methods to try. This is a collaborative process and plans can change as progress is made or new issues appear.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people work face-to-face from different locations; phone sessions use less bandwidth and suit shorter check-ins; live chat or text-based messaging can fit into busy days and remove the need to be on camera. These options make it easier to keep therapy going around work, family or health demands while using the chosen therapeutic approaches to address anxiety, trauma, relationships and stress.
