About me
If you are feeling overwhelmed, stressed or lost, acknowledgement is the first step to healing. I understand that life can be challenging and it's not always easy to navigate through difficult times.
My name is Aashima, and I am here to offer you my support and guidance. I am a warm, compassionate, empathic and skilled counsellor and psychotherapist who can help you tap into your inner wisdom and strength. I specialize in helping individuals release negative patterns, and beliefs and overcome emotional pain. I have a wealth of experience in helping people with a variety of issues such as anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship problems.
I want you to feel more in control of your emotions, have a greater sense of self-worth, and be able to effectively communicate with the people around you. We all want a sense of purpose and direction in life, being able to heal from past traumas and have a deep understanding of ourselves.
What happens next?
Difficult times can hold us back from taking action. To help with the decision to start an engagement with me, I offer a free, no-obligation 20-minute consultation.
This session is the opportunity to ask questions, clarify concerns and understand if there is a good connection to work together.

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred).
Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision.
Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training.
All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
