Mehreen Salman

Mehreen Salman is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with five years' experience. She opens a calm, non-judgemental space where people can bring everyday struggles and longer-term problems. Sessions are intended to help people feel heard and understood as they work through whatever is affecting their behaviour and wellbeing.

Mehreen follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy code of ethics, and she aims to offer care that feels safe and respectful. She draws on approaches such as cognitive behavioural work, person-centred listening, and elements of psychodynamic thinking to shape sessions.

In practice she helps people talk through relationship problems, trauma and abuse, parenting stresses, low self-esteem, depression and anxiety. She also supports those coping with grief, anger, addictive behaviours, sleep and eating difficulties, and career or life changes. Additional focus areas include adoption and foster care, attachment issues and family of origin concerns.

Her way of working is collaborative and down-to-earth. Sessions tend to combine listening with practical tools and reflective conversation. Clients can expect help to notice patterns, try different behaviours and set manageable goals.

Mehreen offers work in English, Hindi and Urdu and accepts international clients. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and appointments are scheduled according to availability.

Approaches that translate to online counselling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, often called ACT, encourages people to clarify what matters to them and to take small steps that align with those values. It can help with anxiety, depression, anger and life transitions by focusing on action and acceptance rather than getting stuck in thoughts.

Client-Centred Therapy emphasises empathic listening and understanding. The counsellor offers a non-judgemental presence so the person can explore feelings, build self-acceptance and make decisions at their own pace.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and together they will decide which methods to use. This collaborative process helps make sure sessions feel useful and suited to the person's needs.

Online therapy can fit into busy lives by reducing travel and making scheduling simpler. It can be easier to arrange sessions around work, childcare or study commitments. If you need specific session formats, please confirm the available options before booking, as formats are not listed in the biography. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt techniques like ACT and client-centred work for remote sessions, offering practical exercises, reflective conversation and goal-focused steps that integrate into everyday routines.
