About Sherife
Sherife Hussein is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and sleep problems. She has eight years of professional experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Sherife uses a respectful, sensitive approach and aims to create a calm space for people to talk things through.
Sherife focuses on practical support for issues such as trauma and abuse, grief and loss, addictions and low self-esteem. She also helps with everyday struggles like anger, relationship and intimacy concerns, and challenges related to neurodiversity and ageing. Sleeping difficulties are included among the areas she addresses.
Her style is person-centred, which means sessions are shaped around each person’s priorities and pace. Sherife also uses trauma-focused work when past events are getting in the way of day-to-day life. Conversations are tailored into a plan that fits a person’s situation and goals.
Sessions aim to break down problems into manageable steps and to build coping strategies that people can use between meetings. Sherife pays attention to practical patterns, for example routines that affect mood and sleep, and helps people try small changes that may make a difference.
She offers therapy in English and Turkish and accepts international clients. Sherife encourages anyone who is ready to take a step towards change to complete the initial sign-up and matching process so they can be scheduled to meet.
How Sherife’s approaches work in online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person in front of the counsellor. It means conversations follow what matters most to the client, with the counsellor reflecting back and helping people make sense of their experiences. This approach suits worries about mood, confidence and ongoing life stressors.Trauma-Focused Therapy looks at how past events affect current feelings and patterns. The work gently helps reduce the hold of traumatic memories and builds practical coping skills for daily life, including routines that influence sleep and mood.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. Sherife will discuss what feels most helpful and adapt methods to match each person’s needs, goals and preferences. That means plans can change as progress is made or new concerns appear.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week and to continue work while travelling or living abroad. It can reduce time spent commuting and allow shorter check-ins when needed.
