About Tahira
Tahira Hussain is a counsellor with BACP accreditation and 15 years of experience. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship difficulties, addictions and parenting strain. She also helps with grief, sleep and eating problems, anger, self-esteem, ADHD and career changes.
Her way of working is straightforward and person-centred. Sessions focus on what matters to the individual, and Tahira uses clear techniques to help people manage symptoms and make changes.
Background and approach
She combines short-term practical work with deeper talking where needed. She draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, psychodynamic ideas and solution-focused strategies. That means she can help with unpicking patterns of thought and behaviour, understanding past influences, and setting small, achievable goals.
Trauma-focused methods are used when a safe review of difficult memories is helpful. Tahira has worked in independent practice, digital services and specialist organisations over the years. Her experience includes supporting adults and young adults through bereavement, domestic abuse, child abuse and other painful life events.
She is familiar with assessment, risk management and outcome-focused care. Sessions are offered in English, Punjabi and Urdu. People come for help when they want practical tools, clearer perspective, or more confidence in facing life changes.
The aim is to work together so progress feels manageable and steady.

Online support
She also uses Client-Centred Therapy, which focuses on listening, understanding and following the person’s goals. This approach helps when someone needs space to make sense of feelings and build self-awareness.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Tahira will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and they will choose methods that suit the issue and the pace desired. This is a collaborative decision rather than a fixed prescription.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation across distances. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or suit lower bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for quick check-ins, ongoing support between sessions, or when writing feels easier than speaking. Registered or accredited professionals can use these options to make therapy more accessible around work, family and daily life.
