Mehreen Haroon-Ali, BACP, NCPS

Mehreen Haroon-Ali is a counsellor who works with thoughts and everyday habits to help people manage stress and anxiety. She uses a client-led approach and focuses on helping people build confidence, motivation and new ways of coping. Mehreen is based in the United Kingdom and brings five years of professional experience to her practice. She is registered with BACP and NCPS, which are listed as her credentials.

Mehreen describes herself as warm, friendly and open minded. She works in a non-judgemental way and aims to understand what matters to each person. Sessions are shaped around the client’s priorities so conversations and activities follow the pace the client chooses.

Her practice combines humanistic roots with other methods such as cognitive behavioural techniques and existential ideas. That variety means she can try different ways of working to suit individual needs. Creative tools may be used when clients feel comfortable with them.

Mehreen supports people dealing with relationship strain, grief, low self-esteem, addiction and life changes among other concerns. She also has experience with issues related to attachment, parenting, anger, compassion fatigue and ADHD. Her work emphasises practical steps that fit everyday life.

Starting therapy involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling via the site. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. Mehreen encourages a collaborative relationship where the client is treated as the expert in their own story.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts without fighting them and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and motivation problems. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and habits and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. It often helps with stress, sleep and everyday routines. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationship patterns and how early connections shape current behaviour, which can help with intimacy issues and attachment concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mehreen will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. She treats clients as the expert in their own life and adjusts techniques as the therapy progresses.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use tools and exercises between sessions to support changes in everyday habits and coping. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt these approaches to suit your situation and schedule.
