About Ayan

BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years' experience. Ayan Yahye focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, and uses Client-Centred Therapy alongside Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). She offers work that pays attention to emotional, social and spiritual factors as part of everyday life.

Ayan meets people where they are and keeps the pace calm and straightforward. Sessions centre on practical conversation, noticing what gets in the way, and building small steps that can change daily routines and responses. She uses person-centred listening alongside CBT tools to help with thinking patterns and behaviour.

She has particular experience supporting people with parenting strain, relationship and communication problems, and issues around self-esteem and motivation. Other areas she addresses include grief, trauma and abuse, addiction concerns, sleep and eating difficulties, and mood problems such as depression and panic attacks.

Ayan also works on concerns linked to attachment, body image, caregiver stress, forgiveness, guilt and shame, isolation, and life-purpose questions. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, listed as BACP, and follows their Code of Ethics.

Her sessions aim to combine attentive listening with practical strategies. People can expect straightforward conversation about goals and small practical changes to try between meetings. To begin, the service asks you to complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the client. Online sessions using this approach keep the conversation centred on the client's perspective and personal goals. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy or CBT looks at how thoughts and behaviours influence feelings and offers practical exercises. Online CBT sessions often include setting small tasks or thought records to try between meetings.

Choosing the right approach is part of the collaborative process. The therapist will discuss which methods suit the person's needs, goals and preferences and will adapt the direction of work as understanding grows. This means sessions can shift between deeper listening and practical skill-building depending on what helps most.

The practical benefits of remote work are that it can fit into busy schedules and reduce travel time, making it easier to keep regular contact. Confirm the exact session formats before booking, since the biography does not list specific options. Registered or accredited professionals usually aim to make sessions manageable within everyday life, for example by arranging shorter check-ins or scheduling around work and caregiving commitments.
