About Musarrat
Musarrat Khan is a counsellor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety and depression. She works with individuals who are dealing with relationship strain, grief, sleep difficulties and the impact of trauma and abuse. Musarrat aims to make the first steps feel less overwhelming and more manageable for anyone who is unsure where to begin.
Musarrat uses a straightforward, person-centred way of working. She listens first and helps clients set small, clear goals.
Background and approach
Sessions are shaped around what each person needs, so plans can shift as life changes. Her background includes nine years of practice and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That experience covers a wide range of worries from parenting stress and caregiver fatigue to chronic illness, codependency and problems tied to family of origin.
Musarrat draws on practical methods such as cognitive behavioural techniques to address unhelpful thinking, and solution-focused steps to build manageable change. She also uses psychodynamic ideas to look at recurring patterns that affect current relationships. People working with Musarrat can expect a compassionate presence and clear dialogue about goals.
She offers flexible session formats to fit different schedules and preferences. If someone is ready to begin, she supports them through the initial steps to set up their first appointment.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Musarrat will discuss options together and agree what fits best with the client’s goals and preferences. That collaborative planning can change over time as progress is made or priorities shift.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that is helpful. Phone sessions can be a good choice when hands-free or lower bandwidth is needed. Live chat and messaging let clients check in between meetings or use written updates when that suits their routine. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, family and day-to-day life.
