About Aashima

Aashima Aggarwal works with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, parenting strains, anger and the effects of trauma and abuse, and she uses counselling, psychotherapy and life coaching in her practice. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and has 16 years of experience.

Aashima listens carefully to what people say and to what they have been holding silently. She uses talking therapy and reflective work to help people notice patterns in their feelings and reactions. She also draws on mindfulness practices and techniques that can calm the body and mind.

Her background includes a Master’s degree in Psychology, a Postgraduate Diploma in Counselling and a Postgraduate Certificate in Education. These qualifications inform how she blends different approaches in sessions. Aashima describes her work as integrative, choosing methods that suit the person and their situation.

She commonly uses elements from Client-Centred Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to explore relationships and attachment concerns. Mindfulness exercises and Trauma-Focused approaches are used when needed to address overwhelming memories or symptoms.

Aashima helps people make practical changes as well as notice emotional patterns. This can include learning calming exercises, picking apart unhelpful beliefs, improving sleep routines, and building clearer communication skills. Sessions aim to be steady and paced according to the individual’s needs.

People who speak English, Hindi or Punjabi can work with her, and she accepts international clients. Fees vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How her approaches are used in online sessions

Aashima commonly uses Client-Centred Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy in her work. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely and helping people explore their feelings at their own pace, which can help with low self-esteem, stress and life changes. Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people understand and shift emotional responses that cause ongoing conflict or distance.

She also uses Mindfulness techniques to help with anxiety, sleep problems and emotional regulation. Mindfulness work in sessions typically involves simple breathing exercises, grounding practices and short meditations to reduce overwhelm and improve focus.

Finding the best approach is part of the first conversations. The therapist will work collaboratively with the client to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences and may combine elements from different approaches as needs change.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family life, reduce travel time and allow more flexible scheduling. It can also mean shorter check-ins when needed and the choice to use audio rather than video if that helps with focus or comfort.
