About Sherin
Sherin Begum is a counsellor with nine years of experience working in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP registration, which indicates her membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Sherin focuses on practical, down-to-earth help for people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low self‑esteem or life changes.
She believes people know their own stories and that therapy should build on existing strengths. In sessions she offers a calm, non‑judgemental space to talk through what feels stuck and to find concrete next steps.
How Sherin works
Sherin aims to make early sessions straightforward so anyone can see how therapy might help. Her approach mixes client‑centred listening with techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy to spot unhelpful thinking patterns. She also draws on solution‑focused ideas to set realistic goals and on motivational interviewing to support change when motivation feels low.
These methods are used flexibly to suit each person’s needs. Sherin works with typical issues like depression, coping with life transitions, relationship and family problems, and difficulties such as abandonment, attachment or blended family concerns. She also supports people facing fertility, caregiving or health‑related stresses and body image worries.
Sessions are offered in English and are available by video call, phone, live chat or text‑based messaging. People start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a time that fits their routine. The subscription used for sessions can be cancelled at any time.

How Sherin's approaches work online
Client‑centred therapy focuses on listening without judgment and following the person’s lead. It helps people feel heard and respected while they make sense of difficult feelings and decide on next steps.Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It helps people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try small behavioural experiments to reduce anxiety or low mood.
Solution‑focused therapy emphasises practical goals and what already works. Sessions often set clear, short‑term goals and track small changes that add up over time.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through options and agree a plan based on the person’s needs, goals and preferences. The process is collaborative and can be adjusted as things change.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls give face‑to‑face conversation, phone sessions can be quicker for check‑ins, and live chat or text messaging suits shorter or more frequent contact. These options help people keep continuity of care when travel or time are barriers, and allow for different ways of communicating during therapy.
