Aashima Aggarwal

Aashima Aggarwal is a counsellor and psychotherapist with 16 years of practice. She comforts people feeling anxious, overwhelmed, low, stuck or unsure how to move forward, and she also works with stress, anger and sleep problems. She speaks English, Hindi and Punjabi and is based in the United Kingdom.

Her sessions begin with careful listening. She pays attention to what clients say and to what they may have been carrying quietly for a long time. This helps her understand how different concerns link together, for example how stress feeds low self-worth or how anger can come from feeling unheard.

Her work draws on an integrative mix of methods so she can tailor support to each person's needs. Aashima uses client-centred ideas, emotionally-focused work, mindfulness practices and trauma-focused approaches, with practical tools such as grounding exercises and meditation where helpful.

She also brings coaching skills into therapy to help clients set goals and make practical changes. Sessions can include reflective conversation and simple exercises to practise between meetings. The aim is steady progress rather than rushed fixes.

Aashima values a calm, respectful atmosphere where people can be honest and accepted as they are. She aims to help people feel clearer, more confident and better able to cope with life changes and everyday pressures.

How her approaches work in online therapy

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding. It gives people space to speak and be accepted, which helps them find their own solutions for stress, low mood or life changes.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy concentrates on feelings and how they affect relationships and behaviour. It can help people notice emotional patterns, reduce overwhelm and improve how they respond to difficult moments.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk through goals and preferences, and together they will choose or adapt methods that suit the person's needs. This is a collaborative, step-by-step way to make sure sessions feel useful.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into everyday life, such as fitting a check-in during a lunch break or avoiding travel time. Please confirm the exact session formats available before booking, as they are not specified here. Many people find remote sessions allow more consistent work on issues like anxiety, sleep, body image and trauma-related difficulties without changing other daily commitments.
