About Ayan
Ayan Yahye is a counsellor who uses client-centred and cognitive behavioural approaches to help people through difficult times. She explains ideas clearly and listens for what matters most to each person. Her style is calm and practical, aimed at steady steps rather than quick fixes.
She draws on three years of experience and membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, listed as BACP. That membership means she follows the association's Code of Ethics and Conduct.
Background and approach
Sessions are offered in English and she works with people across the United Kingdom and internationally. In sessions she focuses on everyday problems like stress, anxiety, low mood and relationship difficulties. She also helps with parenting strain, grief, coping with life changes, addiction concerns and issues around self-esteem and body image.
Depression is one of the areas she lists among her focus areas. Her approach is practical and collaborative. Client-Centred Therapy guides the pace and content from the person's own concerns, while Cognitive Behavioural Therapy offers tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.
Together these approaches help with mood, panic, worry and unhelpful patterns that keep problems going. Clients can expect straightforward conversations about goals and small tasks to try between sessions. She also pays attention to cultural background and family roles when these matter.
The aim is to build coping skills and clearer choices for day-to-day life.

Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on practical strategies to shift unhelpful thinking and behaviour. Online CBT can include short exercises, thought records and clear action steps to try between sessions. It is useful for mood problems, panic and anxiety where behaviour and thinking patterns are part of the difficulty.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and decide collaboratively which methods to use. That means tailoring sessions to what the person hopes to achieve, rather than applying a single method to every case.
Online therapy offers flexibility and easier access to regular support. Video calls work well for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions suit lower bandwidth or quieter check-ins, live chat is useful for quick exchanges and text messaging supports shorter reflections between meetings. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caring duties and travel.
