About Mehreen
Mehreen Haroon-Ali is a counsellor who uses humanistic and evidence-based approaches to help people navigate difficult moments. She brings a warm, non-judgemental presence and a focus on the strengths a person already has. Mehreen encourages clients to take the lead in sessions while she offers practical support and different ways of working.
She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centred and attachment-informed ideas. That mix lets her work with common problems like stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and grief in ways that suit each person. She also helps people facing relationship difficulties, addictive behaviours and coping with big life changes.
Mehreen has five years of professional experience and holds BACP and NCPS credentials. Her background in humanistic training means she uses flexible methods rather than a single rigid model. Creative tools may be offered if the client is comfortable with them.
Sessions are client-led and aimed at helping people find new perspectives and practical steps they can try between meetings. Mehreen emphasises listening without judgement and building a collaborative space to explore what matters most to the client.
She works with people on a range of concerns including parenting strain, career uncertainty, compassion fatigue, ADHD-related challenges and intimacy issues. When someone is ready to begin, Mehreen asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to her availability.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It is often useful for anxiety, low mood and life transitions where people want clearer direction.Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding without judgement. That approach helps people who need a supportive space to explore feelings, build confidence and find their own solutions.
Finding the right approach is part of therapy and is decided together. The counsellor will discuss goals, try methods that fit the person, and adjust as needed to find what helps most. This is a collaborative process that respects preferences and pace.
Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions around life commitments and reducing travel time. Online appointments can make it easier to attend during a lunch break or between errands, and they allow quick check-ins when needed. Confirm the exact session formats available before booking so you know how meetings will be arranged.
