About Aija

Aija Lace works with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, self-esteem and coping with life changes using a client-centred way of working. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has four years' experience in the United Kingdom.

Aija focuses on helping people notice their own strengths and make practical changes. Sessions are conversational and guided by what the person brings. She listens without judging and supports people to find their own solutions rather than imposing steps to take.

People ask about worry, panic attacks, low mood, feeling isolated, and problems with commitment or attachment. Aija also works with issues such as guilt and shame, forgiveness, sexuality, and questions about life purpose. She aims to help people build clearer self-esteem and more reliable coping for day-to-day pressures.

Her client-centred approach means the person’s priorities lead the work. Sessions often involve reflecting on thoughts and feelings, noticing patterns, and trying small changes between meetings. The counsellor offers coaching-style support when people want specific steps to use in everyday life.

Initial steps are straightforward: use the site button to complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first session. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How her client-centred approach works with online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s concerns at the centre of the work and emphasises listening and understanding. It helps when someone wants to talk things through, build clearer self-esteem, or cope with anxiety and life changes. The counsellor follows what the client brings rather than directing the session.

Sessions can also include coaching-style support when people want practical steps for daily life. That approach suits people who prefer clear strategies for managing stress, relationships or motivation. The emphasis stays on collaboration, so goals and methods are agreed together over time.

Finding the right approach is part of the process, and the counsellor will help decide what fits best based on a person's needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative discussion during the first meetings and can change as things progress.

Confirm the exact session options before booking, as no specific formats are listed in the biography. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family life, save travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists who use client-centred methods, often offer these practical benefits to help therapy sit alongside everyday routines.
