About Tasneem
Tasneem Fataar is an AASW social worker who focuses on practical strategies for people feeling overwhelmed by stress and anxiety. She aims to build a calm, steady space where people can talk about what is worrying them and work out useful next steps together. Tasneem keeps sessions straightforward and collaborative.
She listens first, then helps each person set short-term goals and small experiments to try between meetings. Her style mixes skills training with reflection so people learn to manage strong emotions and tricky thinking patterns.
Background and approach
Her work often addresses relationship strain, low self-esteem, career stress, depression and addictions. She also helps with grief, trauma, intimacy concerns, sleep and eating difficulties, and the day-to-day pressures of parenting and caregiving. ADHD, compassion fatigue and body image concerns are also within her focus.
Tasneem uses a blend of approaches that include cognitive behavioural techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-based thinking and elements of dialectical behaviour therapy. She adapts methods to suit each person rather than following a one-size-fits-all plan. With five years of experience in Australia, she supports people through practical change and coping skills.
Sessions can be done by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging for flexibility. Tasneem aims to be non-judgemental and to help people find a way forward that fits their life.
Approach-driven care online that fits your life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and choosing actions that reflect what matters most. It helps people who get stuck in worry or avoidance to reconnect with what is important and try new behaviours. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions link together and teaches specific skills to challenge unhelpful thinking and reduce anxiety and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns in close relationships and how early experiences influence current reactions, which can help with relationship strain and intimacy concerns.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Tasneem will work together with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. That collaboration lets the plan change over time if something isn’t working or new needs emerge.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to keep progressing. Video calls let people use visual cues and deeper conversation. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging provide ongoing check-ins and shorter, timely support between longer sessions. These options help people fit therapy around work, caregiving and other commitments while still practising the approaches that matter most to their recovery.
