Asma Amjad, NCPS

Asma Amjad is a conscientious and compassionate counsellor who brings 15 years of experience to her practice. She works with people feeling stressed, anxious, low, or uncertain about how to move forward, helping them regain confidence and a sense of self. Her practice reflects a flexible, client-focused stance - rather than one fixed method she uses an integrative approach so the therapy can be shaped to each person’s needs. She also draws on cognitive-behavioural techniques including CBT and REBT to address patterns of thinking and behaviour that maintain distress, and she is NCPS accredited, indicating recognition by the National Counselling Society.

Asma has worked with a wide range of clients across different ethnic backgrounds and age groups, and she aims to create a non-judgemental space where people can talk through the difficulties they are facing. Whether someone prefers a short-term, goal-focused course of work or a longer therapeutic journey, she offers support tailored to those objectives. Her practice focuses on helping clients overcome barriers so problems stop disrupting daily life and so individuals can move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

Practical concerns and life circumstances are taken into account when planning therapy, and Asma adapts interventions to fit what each person finds most helpful. Her approach emphasises collaboration, empathy, and respect for the unique story each client brings to the counselling room.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Asma commonly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into her online work - a practical approach that helps people identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which helps people clarify their values, accept difficult experiences, and take meaningful action toward a valued life. In addition, her client-centered stance prioritises a warm, empathetic therapeutic relationship where the person’s own goals guide the work and emotional safety is foregrounded.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Asma collaborates with each person to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the work as learning and change unfold. This collaborative process helps ensure therapy feels relevant and useful for the individual.

Online therapy with Asma is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility to fit busy lives and different comfort levels. Those options make it easier to access registered professionals from different locations and to continue work when in-person meetings are not possible, while allowing therapy to be scheduled around everyday commitments.
