About Bushra
Bushra Yassin offers support for a wide range of concerns including grief, trauma and abuse, anxiety, depression and stress. She also helps with relationship and intimacy issues, addictions, parenting strains and career questions. Bushra works in English and Urdu and has seven years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.
Her style is warm and respectful. She listens first and adapts conversations to each person. Sessions focus on practical steps alongside exploring feelings and life stories.
Background and approach
Bushra aims to make the work easy to understand and down-to-earth. Bushra draws on several approaches to tailor the process. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients notice difficult thoughts and choose values-led action.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used for spotting unhelpful thinking and trying different behaviours. Attachment-based ideas guide work on how early relationships affect current patterns. She has particular experience with bereavement, complicated grief and the effects of life changes.
Bushra has worked with people impacted by domestic violence and with those managing chronic illness, body image concerns and substance issues. Cultural and religious background is treated with awareness in every conversation. Sessions are shaped to individual needs rather than a fixed formula.
Bushra encourages clear goals and small, achievable steps between meetings. She also offers different online formats and will help people choose what suits their daily life.

Therapeutic approaches and online options
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values rather than being driven by fear. It is useful for anxiety, stress and life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying different behaviours to reduce symptoms like low mood and anxiety. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns continue to affect trust, intimacy and communication today and can be useful for relationship and attachment concerns.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and how each approach might help. Together they will try methods and adjust the focus as needs change, so the plan stays practical and relevant.
Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls suit longer talks and face-to-face style conversations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to use video. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, short reflections between sessions or when fitting therapy into a busy day.
