About Asha

Asha Sookhoo is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with seven years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, grief and loss, and anger. Sessions address everyday difficulties like sleep, eating, and work strain as well as longer-term conditions such as depression and bipolar.

She frames therapy as a practical dialogue. Conversations are shaped around what the person brings each week. That can mean focusing on immediate coping skills, examining patterns that fuel anger or resentment, or working through bereavement and life changes.

Asha adapts how she works to fit the individual. That includes talking through parenting strain, addiction concerns, LGBT matters, or compassion fatigue when those are relevant. She also supports people dealing with intimacy-related issues, career stress, and ADHD-related challenges.

In sessions she uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and straightforward discussion. People can expect a respectful, sensitive approach that pays attention to their goals. The aim is to reduce day-to-day distress and build more manageable ways of responding when strong feelings arise.

Her background includes seven years of practice in the UK and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. For practical next steps she asks people to use the platform’s matching process to schedule an initial appointment and discuss session arrangements.

How sessions work

Approach-led online therapy sessions

Asha works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques and conversational methods. One common approach focuses on practical skills for managing intense emotions - teaching ways to notice triggers, pause, and choose calmer responses. This helps with anger, workplace frustrations, and snapping at people at home. Another approach looks at patterns in relationships and family dynamics, helping people understand how past interactions shape current responses and offering new ways to relate. Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. She will discuss options with each person and adjust the approach based on their goals, preferences and how they respond. That collaboration helps choose whether to emphasise immediate coping tools or longer-term pattern change. The practical benefits of online work are about fitting therapy into everyday life. Online sessions can save travel time, make it easier to fit a meeting into a workday, or allow a shorter check-in when that suits. The exact session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Registered and accredited professionals offer these sessions and will explain how they plan to work together when you arrange the first appointment.
