About Aishah

Aishah Elgindy is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression and addiction. She also supports issues around relationships, intimacy, parenting, eating and sleeping, and self-esteem. Aishah works with people dealing with ADHD, LGBT concerns and life changes, as well as those coping with cancer, fertility and family-of-origin problems.

She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and has practised for 10 years.

Background and approach

Much of her work has involved bereavement support and antenatal counselling in specialist services. She also has four years' experience in mental health recovery settings. Aishah uses a person-centred approach that puts each person's needs first.

Sessions aim to be calm and non-judgemental, with the counsellor listening and responding to what matters most to the client. She blends counselling with mentoring and life coaching when that practical support is helpful. Her practice pays attention to how early relationships, attachment and abandonment experiences can shape present difficulties.

She also works with dissociation, body image and eating-related concerns, and the emotional impact of domestic violence and separation. Practical skills such as mindfulness and solution-focused techniques are used alongside trauma-focused work when appropriate. Aishah offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, and she meets people across the United Kingdom and internationally in English.

How these approaches fit into online counselling

A trauma-focused approach concentrates on helping people process difficult events and reduce their day-to-day impact. It combines careful pacing with techniques to manage distress and to rebuild a sense of safety and control, and can help with symptoms following abuse, loss or other traumatic experiences.

Client-centred work means the counsellor follows the client's lead, listening deeply and reflecting what is said. This helps people feel heard and make sense of their feelings, whether they are dealing with grief, relationship strain, or changes in life circumstances.

Mindfulness therapy teaches ways to notice thoughts and bodily reactions without immediate judgement. Those skills can be useful for anxiety, stress and sleep issues, and they are straightforward to practise between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then agree a plan together. That collaborative decision can change as therapy unfolds and needs shift.

Online formats offer practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when needed. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is preferred. Live chat and text messaging suit people who benefit from written reflection or who want more frequent, brief contact. Together these options provide flexibility to fit therapy around work, caring responsibilities and travel.
