Her background includes a Master’s degree in Psychology, a Postgraduate Diploma in Counselling and a Postgraduate Certificate in Education. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
Areas she commonly supports include parenting strain, sleep problems, workplace stress, low self-esteem, anger and mood difficulties. She also works with trauma and abuse, compassion fatigue, ADHD and relationship issues, helping people build more helpful responses and greater self-understanding.
How Aashima uses therapy approaches online
Ashima often draws on Client-Centred Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy in her work. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on empathetic listening and giving the client space to lead the conversation; it helps when people need to be heard and to build self-understanding. Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at patterns in relationships and strong emotions and can help when feelings such as anger, grief or overwhelm are getting in the way of connection.She also uses Mindfulness techniques to help with stress, sleep problems and anxiety. These are short, practical exercises such as breathing and grounding that can be practised between sessions to reduce tension and improve day-to-day coping.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with the client and decide together what tools and ways of working suit their goals and preferences. This collaborative planning means sessions can change as progress is made.
Session formats are not specified here, so please confirm current options before booking.
