About me
Are you struggling with a painful loss ?
Are you feeling stuck despite all your efforts?
Facing a life transition ?
Are you feeling over whelmed ? stressed ?anxious ?
Is your inner voice self-critical ? lacks confidence ? feeling sad ? angry ? or, even miserable ?
Does feeling fulfilment and peace seem only possible to people around you ?
Life's challenges can create uncertainty about future. Worrying about the problems can be exhausting when you're feeling lonely and have nobody to turn to for talking about what's bothering you.
Counselling can help!
Talking to someone entirely outside your social network, can give you the relief of being able to express yourself fully, without the worry that sharing difficult feelings with a friend or family member will worry or upset them. With me, you’re safe to explore any aspect of your life knowing I'm truly listening and on your side.
My name is Gayathri. I am a qualified psychotherapist, with an MSc in Counselling & Psychotherapy.
My practice is called Anāhata-the heartmind therapy.
This is a safe place where opportunities for self-exploration, self-expression and self-healing is offered. My journey began with a passion for helping individuals with a belief in the power of therapy to transform lives and nurture well-being.
My aim is to create a space where qualities such as openness, impartiality, safety, stability, trustworthiness, and confidentiality are prioritised in our therapeutic relationship/environment.
I mainly work with people with addiction issues (alcohol and drugs) - if you are not sure whether you have an addiction or not, please get in touch and we can explore this.
I also work with people who present with issues such as ADHD, Autism, depression, low self esteem, low mood, coping with significant life changes, and grief and loss.
Please browse through my profile/website (see above for link) to help you decide whether I might be a suitable therapist for you. If you decide to work with me, feel free to write to me. I aim to respond to email enquiries within 48 hrs.

Member organisations
COSCA is the professional body for counselling and psychotherapy in Scotland, and seeks to advance all forms of counselling and psychotherapy and the use of counselling skills by promoting best practice and through the delivery of a range of sustainable services. COSCA Counsellor Accreditation is a pathway to entry onto the UKRC. It is a requirement of all individual and organisational members of COSCA to abide by its Statement of Ethics and Code of Practice and be accountable to the Complaints Procedure.

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.
