About Tasneem

Tasneem Fataar brings a warm, collaborative approach to counselling, focusing on understanding each person's emotions, experiences and challenges. She works with clients to assess their needs and co-create personalised plans, adapting therapeutic strategies as those needs change. She prioritises a non-judgemental, non-stigmatising space where people can share difficult material and feel supported while they work toward meaningful change.

Tasneem uses a range of evidence-based and focused psychological strategies in her practice, including cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, strengths-based therapy, brief solution-focused therapy, motivational interviewing, narrative therapy, trauma-informed practice, gestalt therapy and crisis intervention. These approaches are applied flexibly to suit each person and situation, with an emphasis on practical skills, exploration of values, and building resilience.

With 5 years of clinical experience and the credential AASW - which denotes membership in the Australian Association of Social Workers - Tasneem aims to support people across a wide range of life challenges. She is accepting new clients and adapts treatment to align with individual goals and preferences.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) invites people to clarify what matters to them and to build practical habits that align with those values. It combines mindfulness skills with commitment to change and can be useful for anxiety, low mood and life transitions.

Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns in connections and emotional responses. It can help people understand relationship struggles, intimacy issues and attachment-related concerns by gently revisiting relational experiences and developing new ways of relating.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaching concrete skills to shift them. It is often used for stress, anxiety, depression and difficulties with coping in everyday life.

Tasneem approaches finding the right method as a collaborative process - she works with each person to determine which approaches fit their needs, goals and preferences, and adjusts the plan over time. Online therapy offers practical flexibility: sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone appointments, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different routines and comfort levels. This variety helps people access consistent support without travel and makes it easier to maintain momentum between sessions.
