About Asha
Counsellor Asha Sookhoo is a BACP-registered practitioner with seven years of experience based in the United Kingdom. She works with people on stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family tensions, grief and loss, and a range of other life concerns. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.
Asha adapts sessions to each person’s aims and circumstances. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address topics such as addiction, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping difficulties, anger, self-esteem, bipolar and depression, and coping with life changes. Coaching and support for compassion fatigue and ADHD are also within her scope.
In conversation she focuses on clear, practical steps as well as exploring feelings. That can mean working on thinking patterns, daily routines, or relationship interactions. She helps people identify short-term goals and small changes to try between sessions.
Asha draws on what has helped other people in similar situations and checks in often to see what is working. She explains options in plain language so clients can choose what feels right. Her approach balances emotional support with practical strategies.
Clients are guided through an initial matching questionnaire and then offered a first session to set goals and boundaries. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. If you want to start, use the See online counselling options button and schedule the first appointment.
Evidence-based approaches and online counselling
She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions. One common approach focuses on how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and offers ways to test and change unhelpful thinking patterns. This can help with anxiety, low mood and stress by providing clear steps to try in daily life.Another approach concentrates on routines and practical habits, such as sleep, activity levels and coping strategies. That kind of work helps when emotional problems show up as disrupted sleep, low energy or difficulties managing cravings and urges.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and decide together with the client which ways of working fit best. Goals, preferences and practical needs shape that choice so the plan suits each person rather than being fixed in advance.
Session formats are not detailed in the biography, so confirm the available options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around school, work or childcare, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when a shorter conversation is needed. Registered and accredited professionals often use these benefits to help people maintain consistency with therapy while managing everyday commitments.
