My Approach

I strongly believe how we are with ourselves matters. At the heart of my therapeutic work is you. Does trauma, grief or anxiety steer you away from where you are or striving towards? I understand sharing these experiences can be overwhelming and uncomfortable.

I have supported many adults for a number of years experiencing a range of issues including
Anxiety, including (generalised anxiety),
Trauma including (c-PTSD, PTSD, birth trauma)
Depression
Grief
Low self-esteem
Identity related matters
Life transititions

In a confidential, and calm space, I will support you. Harnessed in mutual respect and an accepting therapeutic relationship. At your pace, we will understand and reflect on your past, and present experiences, inviting compassionate inner dialogue, coping strategies, and movement away from shame and criticism. I will not judge you.

My hopes for you are that you gain self awareness, and autonomy. Realising and motioning towards your unique potential within, and in the relationships you regard.

If you are curious to experience what working together may feel like or seek further information. You can reach out to me. During an initial consultation, we can begin to identify your reasons and desires for engaging in therapy. I offer short-term (6-12 sessions) and open-ended therapy. The length can be negotiated at the beginning of our work together or through a process of review during the course of our work together.

About Me

Hello, my name is Asha. I am a person-centred therapist, working in private practice and an Associate Independent Practitioner for a private limited company.

I maintain, an active genuine openness, and expansion towards experiences clients are so courageously willing to share within the co-created therapeutic safe space. Drawing on clinical intuition and empathic understanding, I illuminate thought patterns and emotion, and validate your authentic voice as you express away from expectation and negative judgements. I adjust and honour your experience as communicated by you. My intentions are to empower and strengthen your belief system and emotional regulation. I support clients working through diagnosis and or life events. Together, we can move towards defining your unique pathway of change. Identifying what is healing and helpful, and how you might want circumstances to be different.

In 2023, I was awarded an MSc in Person-Centred & Experiential Psychotherapy after completing a UKCP accredited psychotherapy training programme at the Sherwood Psychotherapy Training Institute, (SPTI). I have gained five years of clinical experience, in private practice, private and charity counselling and psychotherapy organisations since 2019.

Having met all of the necessary and clinical requirements, I am a UKCP Clinical Registered Psychotherapist and BACP Registered Member.

I work with

  • Individuals

Special Interests

Like all UKCP registered psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors I can work with a wide range of issues, but here are some areas in which I have a special interest or additional experience.

Individuals experience anxiety for many reasons, I have supported many clients and can help you to identify how anxiety experienced, and expressed in your thoughts, sensations, emotion and environment. We can the move towards finding helpful strategies, whilst gaining understanding of your unique process.
I have a developing client community that experience ongoing physical health related matters. It is important to me that you feel heard, and validated in your experiences. I will not judge you or seek to know better. For some clients, online sessions have been a preferable mode.Please let me know if this is something that may be of interest to you. I also have a range of seating within my practice in the hope you are comfortable.
I have a continued interest supporting adults who straddle multicultural and/or dual heritage identity. Navigating through majority and minority groups can be confusing and lonely. Cultural sensitivity and inclusivity are harnessed in my clinical practice and research contributions. I will adjust the way I work to honour your identity, relationships and family as they are experienced by you. Many clients value bringing spirituality and religion into our work together and in a respectful way, I will be alongside you. I support and empower many adults choosing to embrace their unique identity located in Race Issues Ethnicity Spirituality Age related issues LGBTQ+
I support counselling and psychotherapy to students embarking on academic activity within counselling and psychotherapy and broader. For many trainee counsellors and psychotherapists in training it is a requirement to engage in your own therapy, having qualified to level 7 and recently graduated, I can help you. Some students also require support identifying coping strategies and challenging judgement towards diagnosed or suspected ADHD and autism. Therapy can be an effective way to offer understanding.
