Riffat Jabeen is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with five years of direct clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression and relationship difficulties. She also supports those dealing with grief, intimacy-related issues, sleep problems, anger, low self-esteem, ADHD and other life changes.
Riffat trained in integrative counselling and applies several established approaches in her work. She uses client-centred methods to listen without judgement and attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy tools are used where helpful to spot and change thinking and behaviour cycles, and mindfulness practices are offered for grounding and stress relief.
Her practice is guided by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and she follows its recommendations for supervision and professional conduct. Sessions focus on what matters to the person in front of her and move at the client’s pace. The emphasis is on practical steps as well as understanding how past experiences influence present feelings.
Riffat often works with people who struggle with feelings of shame, guilt or low self-worth and helps them untangle those responses. She draws on techniques to address attachment wounds and to reduce overwhelming emotions. Clients can expect direct, clear explanations of the approaches being used.
She accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English. Before booking, readers should confirm current session options and practical details through the service’s booking process.
How Riffat combines therapies for online counselling
Riffat commonly uses Attachment-Based Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in her work. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people identify repetitive emotional responses. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on how thoughts, feelings and actions interact and provides practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns.She also draws on client-centred methods to listen and reflect what matters to the client. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review needs, goals and preferences together and adjust methods as sessions progress.
Practical benefits of online sessions include easier fitting of appointments into a busy day and avoiding travel time. Online work can also allow shorter check-ins or audio-only exchanges when that suits someone better, and it can make it simpler to keep therapy part of everyday life. Because session formats are not specified here, confirm the exact online options before booking so you know what is offered.
