About Yasaman
Yasaman Ansari Tari is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with nine years of experience. She works with people who notice repeating patterns in relationships, struggles with self-doubt, or feel stuck between the life they have and the life they want. Common concerns she supports include stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and issues around intimacy and codependency.
Yasaman describes how many current difficulties began as ways of coping with earlier experiences. In sessions she helps people look at those old patterns and the beliefs that keep them in place. The focus is on understanding how past experiences influence present reactions, including people-pleasing and trouble setting boundaries.
Her approach draws on psychodynamic work to trace the roots of recurring behaviour. She also uses client-centred methods to prioritise the client’s perspective and solution-focused strategies when people want concrete steps forward. For some clients she blends coaching elements to support short-term goals like building confidence or changing habits.
In practical terms Yasaman talks through what repeating patterns look like, where they came from, and what might shift them. Sessions can include reflecting on family of origin issues, attachment concerns, shame or guilt, and problems linked to major life changes. She also offers support around career questions, fertility worries, migration-related stress, and feelings of isolation.
People who come to her often want clarity about their next steps and a mix of understanding plus action. To begin, she asks clients to complete a brief questionnaire and schedule a first session so they can map out goals and decide on an approach together.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Psychodynamic therapy looks at how earlier experiences and relationships shape current feelings and behaviour. It helps when patterns repeat or when someone wants to understand the roots of people-pleasing, attachment worries or low self-worth.Client-centred therapy puts the person’s perspective at the centre. The counsellor listens closely and follows what matters most to the client, which can help when someone needs to feel heard while sorting out difficult decisions or relationship patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will explore goals, preferences and practical needs together with each client and then agree an approach. That might mean spending more time on understanding past patterns, or switching to focused steps and coaching when clients want concrete change.
The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy week and making contact from different locations. If you need confirmation about which session formats are available with this counsellor, check the online therapy options before booking. Many people find remote sessions helpful for keeping continuity during life changes and for matching counselling to work or family schedules.
