About Tayyauba
Tayyauba Sheikh is a counsellor registered with BACP and NCPS in the United Kingdom with four years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, bereavement, relationship and family concerns, and parenting challenges. Her practice also includes support for depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues and eating concerns.
She uses talking therapy as the main approach and will discuss medications when that is appropriate for the client. Sessions focus on clear conversation about what is happening now and what the client wants to change. Tayyauba listens for patterns that keep causing pain and helps people name difficult emotions.
Her work draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy and attachment-based ideas when relational patterns and closeness are central to the problem. Client-centred methods guide the way she responds in the room, while mindfulness and psychodynamic approaches inform how she and the client look at feelings and past influences.
Practical goals and simple steps are part of most plans. Tayyauba helps people practise small changes between sessions and checks progress regularly. She can support clients dealing with grief, chronic stress, caregiving strain, body image concerns and problems around communication and commitment.
Sessions are offered in English, Hindi, Punjabi and Urdu. Guidance on how to start is available through the online therapy options button and a short matching questionnaire to schedule a first meeting.
How her approaches work for online counselling
Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on identifying and naming strong emotions and the patterns they create in close relationships. It can help when people feel stuck in repeating hurtful cycles or when it is hard to say what they feel. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds influence current reactions and connection with others. It can be useful for people who notice repeated trust or closeness problems. Client-Centred Therapy prioritises the client's experience and uses non-directive listening to help people find their own solutions and clarify priorities.Finding the right way of working is part of the therapy process. Tayyauba will collaborate with each person to decide which approaches fit their needs and goals. She talks through options, checks how each method feels in practice, and adjusts the plan as the work progresses.
