About Reshma
Counsellor Reshma Salam is BACP listed and has four years' experience working with adults and young people. She sees people for relationship issues, parenting worries, low self-esteem, depression, family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, career matters and coping with life changes. She also focuses on issues such as abandonment, blended family problems, domestic violence, immigration issues, postpartum depression, and isolation or loneliness.
Reshma uses a client-centred approach. That means sessions focus on the person's own views and pace. She listens without judgement and helps people find their own answers. Sessions aim to be practical and conversational rather than didactic.
She adapts sessions to the concerns raised. That can include looking at family of origin patterns, dealing with prejudice or discrimination, or working through young adult transitions. The work may involve talking through difficult memories, building self-love, or practical strategies for everyday stressors.
Reshma has experience in settings that included services for children and young people and charities supporting women, and she brings that background into one-to-one counselling. She combines the client-centred stance with other helpful resources when needed. Sessions are offered in English in the United Kingdom.

Client-Centred work and online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy places the person's own experience at the centre of the session. The counsellor listens, reflects and follows the topics the client brings. This approach can help with low self-esteem, relationship concerns, grief and the emotional impact of trauma.Reshma also blends in other simple resources where they suit the client. Those might include practical ways to manage stress or ideas for coping with life changes. Deciding which approaches to use is done together with the client, based on their needs and preferences.
For practical arrangements, please confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the profile does not list specific options. Many people find remote counselling helps fit appointments into work or family schedules, reduces travel time, or makes it easier to have a shorter check-in session when needed. The therapist will discuss how sessions can fit into everyday life and agree a plan that suits the client.
