About Sherife
Sherife Hussein is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with eight years of professional experience. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, depression and addiction. She also supports concerns such as intimacy issues, sleep and eating difficulties, and adjustment to life changes.
Sherife keeps conversations direct and practical. She uses client-centred approaches to listen to each person’s priorities and to shape sessions around what feels most useful. Trauma-focused work is used when past events are getting in the way of daily life and relationships.
She commonly addresses attachment and abandonment worries, communication problems, codependency and blended family issues. Her experience also covers autism and Asperger Syndrome, chronic illness and caregiving stress, and challenges linked to ageing. Sessions can include talking through current problems, developing routines, and practising ways to manage strong emotions.
Sherife works in English and Turkish and accepts international clients. She describes her style as respectful and sensitive while keeping things straightforward. The practical aim is to help people develop better coping strategies and clearer ways to move forward.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first session. Sherife uses a subscription model for sessions that can be cancelled at any time, and fees vary by location.
How her therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what the person says. The counsellor follows the client’s lead, checks understanding, and helps set practical goals. This approach suits people who want a conversational, goal-driven way to sort out daily stresses and relationship issues.Trauma-Focused Therapy targets the effects of past distressing events on current functioning. It involves working through memories and responses at a pace the person can manage, and learning ways to reduce symptoms that interfere with life. This can help when trauma-related thoughts, sleep problems or flashbacks are persistent.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sherife will discuss options together and adapt methods to a person’s needs, aims and preferences. That includes agreeing how much focus to place on past events versus present coping strategies.
Confirm the current session formats before booking as the biography does not list them. Online counselling can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer speaking without being on camera or who need sessions outside standard hours. Registered or accredited professionals can tailor session length and pacing to practical needs rather than a one-size-fits-all timetable.
