Tahseen Rizvi
Compassionate counsellor for life’s difficult moments
About Tahseen
Tahseen Rizvi is a counsellor with four years of clinical experience based in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation, which indicates registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Tahseen focuses on making therapy straightforward and approachable for people facing difficult moments.
She helps with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, parenting concerns and relationship issues. Other areas she supports include self-esteem, addictions, sleeping and eating problems, bipolar and depression, and coping with life changes.
Background and approach
Tahseen also works with matters such as attachment and abandonment, codependency, narcissism, and multicultural concerns. Her way of working is calm and conversational. She aims to create an open space where thoughts and feelings can be spoken about without judgment.
Sessions tend to centre on what matters most to the individual and on practical steps they can try between meetings. Tahseen draws on several approaches to shape sessions, including attachment-based ideas, client-centred listening, cognitive behavioural techniques and psychodynamic thinking. She will tailor methods to the issue and to the person rather than following a fixed formula.
Sessions are offered in English and Urdu and are available to people inside and outside the UK. The initial steps involve a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling a session that fits the person's needs. Tahseen aims to support people who are ready to make changes and to work at a pace that feels manageable.

How Tahseen’s approaches work online
Attachment-based work looks at important relationships and patterns that started earlier in life. It helps people understand why they react certain ways in close relations and can be helpful for issues like abandonment, attachment difficulties and intimacy-related concerns.Client-centred therapy puts the person’s experience at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens without judgment and helps the person find their own solutions, which is useful for stress, low self-esteem and grief. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, focuses on links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns, often used for anxiety, depression and worry.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and try methods that match the person’s goals and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made. This collaborative process helps people feel involved in decisions about their care.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are close to face-to-face meetings and work well when visual contact helps the conversation. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or when a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera, and they can fit into a busy day more easily.
