About Aashima

Aashima Aggarwal is a fully trained counsellor, psychotherapist, and life coach with more than 16 years of professional experience. She combines academic training with practical skills to support people facing anxiety, depression, stress, low self-esteem, parenting challenges, sleep difficulties, relationship problems, trauma, and work-related concerns.

She holds a Master’s degree in Psychology, a Postgraduate Diploma in Counselling, a Postgraduate Certificate in Education, and the BACP credential - a recognised professional credential for counsellors and psychotherapists. Aashima works in an integrative way, drawing on a range of therapeutic tools to suit each person’s needs, including talking therapies, selected CBT techniques, meditation and grounding exercises, Emotional Freedom Technique and EFT tapping, and reflective therapeutic work.

Her practice emphasises careful listening and respectful curiosity so that the feelings and patterns someone has been carrying can be understood and addressed. She aims to create a compassionate, accepting atmosphere in which clients can be honest and begin to explore how anxiety, stress, anger, or low confidence connect with other life challenges. Aashima helps clients identify patterns, develop healthier responses, and build practical coping strategies.

Whether someone is taking their first step into therapy or returning after a break, she meets them where they are and works at a pace that feels right. Her goal is to help clients feel calmer, clearer, and more capable of coping with life’s changes and demands.

Approaches and flexibility for online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental environment in which the client’s experiences and values guide the pace and direction of work. It helps people who want support in exploring identity, self-worth, and personal goals. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people understand and reorganise emotional responses within relationships - it can be useful for those working on attachment, communication, or patterns of feeling misunderstood. Mindfulness Therapy teaches practical attention and grounding skills to reduce emotional reactivity and support better sleep, anxiety management, and overall emotional balance.



Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Aashima will work collaboratively with each client to identify which combination of methods feels most helpful based on their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting as progress unfolds.



Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and easier access. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life, continue work while living abroad, or choose the medium that feels most comfortable for expressing thoughts and emotions. Registered professionals and therapists can adapt exercises and tools to work well in these formats, helping clients make steady progress without unnecessary disruption to their daily routines.
