About Bushra
Bushra Yassin works with people facing trauma, grief, anxiety, relationship problems and life changes. She helps with issues such as domestic violence, addiction, sleep difficulties, parenting strain and low self-esteem. She also offers support around chronic illness, bereavement and career concerns.
Bushra communicates in English and Urdu and practises from the United Kingdom. Bushra draws on seven years of professional experience to shape practical, one-to-one counselling. She listens for personal values and goals, then helps people set small, manageable steps forward.
Background and approach
Sessions are adapted to each person's culture and background, with attention to how beliefs and family expectations affect daily life. Her approach mixes acceptance and commitment ideas with client-centred listening and cognitive behaviour techniques. That means she helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, try different behaviours, and clarify what matters most to them.
Attachment-informed work looks at how early relationships influence current patterns with others and with self. Clients can expect straightforward conversation, reflective questions and practical coping tools. Bushra aims to make conversations feel respectful and non-judgemental while keeping a clear focus on goals.
She tailors pace and techniques to suit each person’s needs. People come to Bushra for help with loss, hurt from past abuse, feelings of abandonment, body image worries and issues around communication or commitment. Her practice also supports those dealing with chronic pain, cancer-related distress, compassion fatigue and mood difficulties such as depression or bipolar-related challenges.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online support
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, grief and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns from early relationships and how they shape current trust and closeness. It can help with abandonment, communication and intimacy-related issues.Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will listen to your goals and try methods that suit your situation. Together you will review what helps and adjust the approach as you go, combining techniques when needed to meet practical aims.
Online therapy offers several flexible formats. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper connection. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging provide short, on-the-go support and can fit around work or caregiving schedules. These options make it easier to keep regular sessions even with a busy life, and they let people choose what best fits their day-to-day routines.
