Hello and welcome to my profile. I'm Tayba and I am trained as an integrative counsellor, but also work primarily from a trauma-informed and relational perspective. I tend to employ several other approaches based on what your need is and what is right for you, such as an embodied approach. I work with a range of issues such as anxiety, depression, faith and cultural conflict, domestic abuse, sexual abuse, divorce , self-harm and bullying. The list is not exhaustive but should give you an idea of the range of issues I am able to help and support you with.

We offer help and support for a wide range of mental health issues such as anger management, gambling problems, substance misuse, anxiety, depression, bereavement and loss, post traumatic stress disorder, domestic abuse, gay affirmative therapy, social anxiety, stress and burnout, divorce , sexual performance anxiety and relationship counselling.
Empowering men to navigate life's challenges with confidence and clarity. Talking Spaces is an accessible counselling specialist service for men’s mental health, available in person or via Zoom. Generally men by nature are more action focused, so when it comes to managing difficult life events and emotions I use action and solution based therapeutic approaches and interventions when working with men’s mental health issues. Men need a service with the knowledge understand that social and cultural norms and ingrained beliefs about masculinity are one of the main barriers to seeking counselling in the first place.

I am an experienced counsellor of more than 10 years, providing counselling for couples and individuals in York. I offer a warm and open environment to explore, together, some of the difficulties or experiences that may have brought you to counselling. Couples counselling need not be a sign of breaking up. Instead, Couples Counselling provides a safe, neutral space for those who are struggling in their relationship, or wish to address a range of relationship issues. It has the potential to resolve past hurt and present conflict. Attending sessions together can initiate a more productive way of communicating.

Are you feeling anxious, lost or depressed?  Are you struggling to make sense of your life?  Are you finding interactions with other people difficult or confusing?  Have you recently lost someone or something important to you?  Do you find everyday life exhausting or wonder when you will feel like 'yourself' again? Sometimes we all need a helping hand to navigate the things that life throws at us, and sometimes our bodies and minds react in ways that we struggle to understand - I aim to offer you the space to explore these issues with someone who will not judge anything you talk about. I see clients at the weekend and Mondays only.

Are you feeling stuck, caught in two minds, not quite in control? I'm sure you've heard the story of Goldilocks- she finds the 3 bears' porridge, chairs and beds and tests each one until she discovers the ones that are 'just right' for her. Well, just like Goldilocks, we all have many different 'just rights', from how hot we like our porridge, to how fast we like to drive, to how truthful or honest we want to be. Sometimes we can balance and achieve all our different 'just rights,' and life feels good. However, sometimes our 'just rights' can be challenging to balance, they might even be in conflict, and life feels hard.

The counselling I provide offers you the time and space that so many of us need but often lack, especially when life becomes hard or you feel less able to cope as you once did. You may be struggling with depression, low mood, anxiety, low self-esteem, a relationship breakdown, bereavement, or perhaps there is no label that can best describe where you are at right now. Whatever the case and wherever you are at, I offer a safe, confidential and non-judgmental environment for you to begin your counselling journey.

What has brought you here? Are you struggling with past trauma affecting you in the present? Are you discovering who you are at your core? On a journey with neurodivergence? Wanting to explore OCD behaviours and tackle them? Regain control of your life? These are a few of my specialist areas that I work with, but not limited to. I’m an integrative therapist which means I don’t think there is one approach that can help clients in all situations. Instead, I look at you as an individual from a holistic approach, looking at your environment, who and what’s around you, and tailor an approach which would be beneficial to you.

Life, in all of its complexity, can be challenging, and our experience of our own thoughts and emotions can cause us distress which can be difficult to alleviate and understand. I’m sorry if you are struggling at the moment. I would like you to know that there is always hope and that life can become easier over time, despite how difficult this may be to currently imagine. I understand that reaching out to a psychologist can feel daunting, and that simply looking for a therapist can take courage.

Divorce Counsellors

How does therapy for people affected by a divorce work?

Individuals may feel a number of emotions following a divorce, such as shock, guilt, grief, anger, and fear. Therapists offer a non-judgmental space for individuals to talk about what they’ve experienced and process their emotions. Therapists will help clients develop coping strategies. They can also help a client rebuild their sense of self and self-worth and talk about what a happier future might look like.

What’s the most common type of therapy following a divorce?

There are several types of therapy that may be useful for divorce, including cognitive behavioural, acceptance and commitment, solution-focused brief, and mindfulness-based therapies. Many therapy types are talk-therapy based, which is typically the most popular option for individuals dealing with divorce. Cognitive behavioural therapy is a widely-used talk therapy, however, there’s no specific therapy type that’s designed to help people with divorce, and different types will work depending on the person.

When should an individual seek help due to a divorce?

When the feelings of a divorced individual, or an individual going through the process of divorce, begin to disrupt healthy daily functioning, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not performing at work due to problems with anxiety or motivation, if they’re no longer seeing friends due to feelings of shame, or if they’re not properly taking care of themselves as a result of depression, speaking to a professional could help.

How do you encourage someone to go to therapy due to a divorce?

It’s helpful to express concern and love for the individual while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Sharing how the individual appears to be suffering, and what effects it has on them or on their children, should be done with compassion and empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
