Krishna Ubhi, BACP

Krishna Ubhi is a BACP-registered counsellor and psychological therapist with 11 years of clinical experience supporting people through complex life challenges. She combines practical, evidence-informed work with clear, compassionate directness - guiding clients who want depth, clarity, and real change rather than vague reassurance. BACP stands for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, a recognised professional body for counsellors and therapists.

Krishna specialises in supporting survivors of domestic and sexual violence and abuse and works with a broad range of concerns including stress, anxiety, addictions, family and relationship problems, trauma, and coping with major life changes. Her practice also addresses attachment and abandonment issues, body image, caregiver stress, communication and control difficulties, divorce and separation, childhood and adulthood trauma, and symptoms related to PTSD.

She brings additional strengths to her work as a stage 3 invasive breast cancer survivor, a qualified foreign lawyer and McKenzie Friend who can provide informed support in family and employment law matters, and a body language coach. Her cultural awareness of Indian and Asian backgrounds - informed by her own Sikh Indian heritage - helps her understand and work sensitively with clients from similar communities.

Evening sessions are available by arrangement, with flexible short-term and long-term counselling options. Krishna works in a direct, honest way and will challenge clients gently but clearly to help them recognise patterns and take responsibility for their growth. Prospective clients are invited to reach out to discuss availability and how she might support their journey.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Therapy

Krishna uses practical, evidence-informed techniques that focus on helping clients manage thoughts, feelings, and behaviours in everyday life. One core approach involves structured, problem-focused work that helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop new coping strategies for anxiety, stress, and addictive behaviours - useful for clients seeking concrete tools to feel steadier and more in control.

She also offers trauma-informed, supportive work tailored to survivors of domestic and sexual violence and complex trauma. This kind of approach prioritises safety and paced processing, helping people process painful experiences while building resilience and emotional regulation skills.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Krishna will listen to a client’s needs, goals, and preferences and then recommend and adapt techniques together so the work fits the individual situation and evolves as progress is made.

Online therapy with Krishna is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to access support around work, family, or geographical constraints. These options provide flexibility for scheduling, allow continuity of care across locations, and let clients choose the format that feels most comfortable for them.
