Bushra Yassin, BACP

Bushra Yassin is a UK-licensed therapist with seven years of professional experience who holds BACP accreditation (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy). She focuses on supporting people through grief, bereavement and major life changes, drawing on practice experience with clients who have experienced complicated grief. Her work often explores how cultural and religious backgrounds shape day-to-day coping and emotional responses, and she has experience supporting women from diverse communities as they navigate loss and transition.

Her practice addresses self-esteem and self-confidence concerns, including the ways in which women may internalize conditions of worth and how those beliefs affect identity and relationships. She supports clients who want to examine the impact of past events and to consider where they want to go next, helping them move from reflection to practical steps for change. Bushra has also worked with women affected by domestic violence across different cultures and faiths, offering sensitive care informed by that experience.

As a therapist of colour, she brings awareness of cultural difficulties clients may face and aims to meet each person with respect, sensitivity and compassion. She individualizes dialogue and treatment plans so therapy aligns with each client’s unique needs. Bushra recognises that beginning therapy can take courage and values the opportunity to accompany clients on their healing and growth journeys.
