Ayan Yahye, BACP

Ayan Yahye is a counsellor who uses a person-centred approach to help people make change and find balance. She works in a respectful, non-judgemental way and focuses on supporting each person at their own pace. Ayan is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and practices in the United Kingdom.

Her work blends client-centred perspectives with cognitive behavioural ideas that look at thoughts and behaviours. She draws on simple, practical techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy where helpful, and keeps the conversation grounded in the client’s experiences. Sessions aim to build insight, coping skills and clearer choices for everyday life.

Ayan has three years of experience working with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression and grief. She also supports people with relationship and family issues, parenting strain, and challenges around intimacy, body image and self-esteem. She can help with trauma-related symptoms, panic, addictions and ADHD-related concerns.

She pays attention to cultural background and identity, and aims to create a space where multicultural concerns and life purpose can be discussed. Themes such as caregiver stress, communication problems, control issues, guilt and shame are also part of her practice. The approach is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.

Practical matters such as costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are accepted.

How client-centred and CBT approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening deeply and following the person’s pace. The counsellor offers acceptance and empathy to help people feel understood and to explore what matters most to them. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses simple exercises to build coping skills and change unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and together decide whether a more person-centred route, CBT tools, or a blend suits best. That decision is revisited as therapy progresses so the plan can change if needed.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available online options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time and allow for quieter surroundings or shorter check-ins when time is limited. It can also help people maintain continuity of care when they are travelling or living abroad. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists in this service, will work with clients to make sessions practical and focused on real-life change.
