About Reshma

Reshma Salam works on relationship difficulties, parenting challenges, self-esteem, depression, family and trauma-related concerns, grief, anger, career issues and coping with life changes using a person-centred approach. She is a BACP member and has four years' experience as a counsellor.

Reshma offers one-to-one counselling for adults and young people. Sessions focus on helping people talk through what matters to them and on finding practical ways to manage day-to-day problems. She aims to work at each person's pace so they can reflect on their experiences and consider change where it feels right.

Her approach is based on Client-Centred Therapy, which centres the conversation on the client's concerns and preferences. Reshma says she mixes in other helpful resources when they suit the client’s needs. That can mean using different tools to support conversations about relationships, parenting, or loss.

She has worked in services for children and young people and within a women’s charity, bringing workplace experience of family and young person issues. This background informs how she talks with people about blended families, family of origin problems and the impact of immigration or discrimination.

Parents and young adults often come to discuss postnatal struggles, isolation or feeling stuck after a life change. Reshma also supports people dealing with domestic violence, abandonment and multicultural concerns, and she helps people explore self-love and career transitions.

Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted. Practical steps for starting are to use the site matching process and schedule a first appointment through the counselling service.

Client-centred approaches and working online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the client's own perspective. The counsellor listens without directing, helping the person clarify feelings and choices; this approach is often used for relationship issues, self-esteem and coping with life changes.

When other resources are helpful, Reshma may introduce them to support specific concerns such as parenting difficulties, grief or trauma-related problems. These are used alongside a person-centred way of working so the client's preferences guide the sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss what feels most useful and adapt methods to the client's needs, goals and preferences in a collaborative way.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm the current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare or travel, and it can reduce time spent travelling to appointments. Some people prefer shorter check-ins or audio-only contacts when those suit practical circumstances, while others find regular face-to-face video helpful for longer conversations.
