About Aisha
Aisha Tasneem is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing anxiety, stress, depression and grief. She also supports those dealing with relationship difficulties, family conflict, self-esteem concerns and issues around addiction and intimacy. She uses plain, straightforward language so people can focus on what matters to them.
Aisha brings five years of professional experience and holds BACP accreditation. Aisha works in an integrative way, blending different counselling ideas to fit each person.
Background and approach
Sessions are shaped around practical steps and conversations, not jargon. She aims to help people notice patterns that cause distress and experiment with small changes that feel doable. Her approach draws on methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy alongside attachment-based and client-centred ways of working.
That variety lets Aisha focus on thoughts, feelings and relationships depending on the issue presented. She explains techniques and helps clients practise them between sessions. Aisha is comfortable discussing complex topics including trauma, loss, caregiving strain and long-term health challenges.
She also supports people navigating career stress, parenting pressures and changes brought on by separation or bereavement. Conversations move at a client’s pace and priorities guide each session. Sessions are offered online by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging.
People who prefer English can work with her. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to the therapist’s availability.
Approaches that guide online care
Aisha often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and it focuses on values-based actions that matter to the person. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and uses practical exercises to change patterns and reduce symptoms.Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they try techniques and agree what to keep or change so the work fits the client’s life.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video lets people see facial cues and use exercises that involve worksheets or screen sharing. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging suit those who prefer writing or who want regular, brief contact between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving and day-to-day commitments while keeping the focus on practical progress.
