About Asma
Asma Amjad is a counsellor who blends practical therapies to help people manage stress, anxiety, low mood and life setbacks. She uses straightforward conversation to help clients gain confidence and move forward. Asma draws on 15 years of experience and holds NCPS, the National Counselling Society designation, as shown in her profile.
She prefers an integrative approach and chooses methods to suit each person. That means sessions might use elements of cognitive behavioural work, acceptance-based practices, mindfulness or solution-focused tools. The therapist adapts the mix to the issue you bring, rather than applying one fixed model.
Asma has worked with people from many ethnic backgrounds and different stages of life. She supports those facing relationship strain, trauma, grief, addictions and problems with self-esteem. Additional focus areas include attachment and abandonment concerns, chronic illness, caregiver stress, and issues around eating, sleep and intimacy.
Sessions are practical and conversational. People can expect to talk through what’s happening now, try small experiments or exercises between meetings, and review progress together. The aim is to reduce daily disruption from problems and help people reconnect with what matters to them.
Her approach welcomes short-term work or longer journeys depending on need. Asma offers a calm, non-judgemental space and works alongside clients to find what helps them feel more like themselves again.
How her approaches work in online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then clarifies values and small steps toward a more meaningful life. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and issues that cause avoidance. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour and tests new, practical ways of responding to reduce symptoms like anxiety and sleep problems. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on a respectful, non-judgemental relationship where the person leads the pace and topics, which can help with self-esteem and processing painful experiences.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss what matters to you, your goals and preferences, and adapt methods accordingly. That collaborative process helps identify which techniques to try first and when to change direction if something isn’t helping.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the session formats available before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Online counselling can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time and allow short check-ins that suit a work break. It also supports people who prefer not to travel or who need flexibility around appointments. Registered professionals can tailor exercises, homework and practical tools to work well in remote sessions.
