About Aishwarya

Aishwarya Kulkarni helps people work through relationship problems, trauma, addiction, anxiety and low mood using a client-centred approach. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has four years of experience working with adults. Sessions are offered in English, Hindi and Marathi and she accepts international clients.

Aishwarya prefers conversation over labels and focuses on practical, human ways to make sense of current difficulties. She draws on client-centred methods that put the person’s experience first, alongside psychodynamic ideas about how past relationships can shape present patterns. Motivational interviewing is used when people want help with change, for example around addictive behaviour.

Her work addresses a wide range of concerns, including trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy issues, depression, anxiety, stress, grief, and eating or sleeping problems. She also supports people dealing with parenting strain, career uncertainty, compassion fatigue, ADHD and complex situations where problems overlap.

When attachment issues or abandonment are central, she uses attachment-based techniques to look at patterns in relationships. For people affected by domestic violence, divorce or separation, she focuses on stabilising feelings and helping clients identify practical next steps. She also works with body image, sexual identity and LGBT-related concerns.

Sessions aim to be collaborative and paced to the client’s needs. Aishwarya blends reflective listening, exploration of past experiences and practical conversations about change. She encourages clients to bring current problems and immediate goals into each session.

How her approaches are used in online counselling

A client-centred approach focuses on listening and reflecting the person’s experience back to them. It helps people feel heard and supports them to identify their own priorities for change.

Attachment-based work looks at patterns in relationships and how early connections can affect current trust and intimacy. This can help with relationship difficulties, abandonment issues and attachment concerns.

Motivational interviewing is a collaborative way of talking about change. It helps people weigh options and build motivation for behaviours such as reducing addictive patterns or improving sleep.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with the client to decide which methods suit their needs, goals and preferences, and may combine approaches over time in a collaborative way.

Please confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into daily life, for example by saving travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a break, or removing the need to travel after work. These practical benefits help people maintain regular contact with a therapist alongside other commitments.
