About Yasaman

Yasaman Ansari Tari works with people who notice repeating patterns in relationships, self-doubt, stress responses and a sense of being stuck between the life they have and the life they want. She uses psychodynamic ideas alongside client-centred and solution-focused ways of working to look at where those patterns come from and how to change them. Yasaman is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and has nine years of clinical experience.

She explains that many habitual responses began as useful coping strategies in earlier life. Over time these ways of coping can feel automatic and limit self-worth and relationships. In sessions she helps people trace how past experiences shaped current beliefs about themselves and others, and what keeps old patterns running.

Her approach blends talking to understand history with practical steps for change. That can involve reflection on attachment and family of origin issues, and short-term focused work on goals like confidence, relationship dynamics or career direction. She sometimes uses coaching-style techniques to support action and habit change.

People come to her for a range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, intimacy and relationship difficulties, self-esteem and life transitions. She also works with issues such as abandonment, codependency, body image, infertility and immigration concerns.

Sessions aim to be clear and purposeful. Yasaman helps people identify patterns, try new ways of relating, and make steady progress towards the life they want. If change is the goal, she works both on understanding the past and on practical steps for the present.

How her psychodynamic and solution-focused methods work online

Psychodynamic work looks at how early experiences and attachment patterns can shape current feelings, relationships and self-worth. Online sessions can be used to talk through those patterns, notice recurring themes and reflect on how past events influence present behaviour.

Solution-focused work concentrates on clear goals and small practical steps. In this approach the counsellor and client identify a preferred outcome and try simple changes or experiments to move towards it, which can suit concerns such as career direction, confidence or relationship habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and the counsellor will work with the client to decide what fits best. That means discussing needs, goals and preferences together and adapting the mix of reflection and practical work as therapy progresses.

Practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy into a busy week and saving travel time. Please confirm which session formats are available before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online work can make it simpler to attend brief check-ins, schedule sessions around work or family commitments, or choose conversations that focus either on exploring history or on practical change.
