About me
Hello, my name is Ashling. I am a psychotherapist registered with the BACP.
As a therapist, I believe in the power of a safe, supportive space where you can explore your emotions and experiences without fear of judgment. I work integratively, drawing from different therapeutic approaches to meet your unique needs and help you gain insight, resilience, and self-compassion.
I have experience working with a variety of people, of different ages, backgrounds and life experiences. I work with individuals struggling with a variety of difficulties including anxiety, depression, grief, relationship issues and low self-worth. However I'm interested in working with the person rather than the 'issue'.
I understand how these challenges can impact your daily life and sense of self, and I am committed to helping you develop healthier coping strategies, build confidence, and cultivate a more positive and empowered relationship with yourself.
In the therapy room, I bring warmth, authenticity, and a deep respect for your personal journey. Together, we will explore patterns that may be holding you back, challenge unhelpful beliefs, and create meaningful change at a pace that feels right for you.
If you're ready to take that first step toward healing and self-growth, I’d be honoured to support you on your journey.
A therapy session with me is a collaborative, supportive, and judgment-free space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences at your own pace. I work integratively, which means I tailor my approach to your individual needs, drawing from different therapeutic techniques to best support you.
In our sessions, we might begin by checking in on how you’ve been feeling and what’s been on your mind. From there, we explore your challenges in a way that feels safe and manageable, whether that’s unpacking emotions, identifying thought patterns, or working through past experiences that may be affecting your present. I also integrate practical tools and coping strategies that you can apply in your daily life to help manage anxiety, depression, and low self-worth.
I believe therapy is not just about problem-solving but also about self-discovery and growth. My approach is warm, compassionate, and empowering—I’ll meet you where you are and support you in moving forward at a pace that feels right for you. Some sessions may be reflective, while others might involve learning new strategies to challenge unhelpful patterns or build confidence.
Ultimately, my goal is to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and equipped with the tools to navigate life’s challenges with greater resilience and self-compassion.

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.
