Yasaman Ansari Tari, BACP

Yasaman blends psychodynamic work with client-centred practice to help people understand why they keep repeating old patterns. Psychodynamic work looks at how early experiences shape current feelings and relationship habits, which can be useful for long-standing issues like low self-worth or repeated relationship conflicts. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person, helping them feel heard and able to make choices that fit their values.

She also uses solution-focused techniques when clients want clear steps and achievable goals. This approach breaks larger problems into small changes, such as building healthier habits or improving communication, and can be used alongside deeper exploration of past influences. Yasaman treats choice of approach as a collaborative process and will work with each person to decide what mix best fits their needs and aims.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is good for a fuller face-to-face feel, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can suit brief check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options help fit therapy around work, family life and different routines while keeping the focus on progress and practical change.
