About Tayyauba
Tayyauba Sheikh is a counsellor who focuses on talking therapies to help people manage stress, anxiety and grief. She practises with an emphasis on respect, sensitivity and compassion. Tayyauba aims to tailor sessions to each person’s needs and goals.
She has four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and offers support for relationship strains, family conflicts and parenting concerns. She also helps people facing depression, addiction, trauma and intimacy-related issues.
Background and approach
Her additional focus areas include body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness and communication problems. Her approach blends attachment-based ideas with client-centred and emotionally focused work. She uses mindfulness and psychodynamic perspectives to help people understand their feelings and patterns.
This mix is used to make sense of difficult moments and to build practical ways forward. Tayyauba prioritises talking therapy and will discuss medication options with a client when appropriate. Sessions are shaped around what a person brings to the room, with space to notice emotions, reflect on relationships and try small changes.
She aims to make each meeting practical and grounded. Sessions can be conducted in English, Hindi, Punjabi or Urdu. People based in the United Kingdom can work with her through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging.

Therapeutic approaches for online emotional work
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people notice how they connect with others and build more supported ways of relating in close relationships.Client-centred therapy focuses on the person in front of the therapist. It emphasises listening, empathy and meeting people where they are to help them find their own answers and build self-trust.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people map strong emotions and the interactions that keep them stuck. It can be useful for improving how someone communicates about hurt, fear or longing and for reshaping unhelpful cycles with others.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and they will adjust methods as the relationship develops. This collaborative process aims to fit therapy to the person's needs rather than forcing a single method.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video calls are useful for seeing facial cues, phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging lets people reflect between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to continue work when in-person meetings are not possible.
