About Asha

Asha Sookhoo is a counsellor who uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage stress, anxiety and trauma. She works with individuals facing relationship and family tensions, grief and loss, and struggles with mood such as depression and bipolar. She brings seven years of professional experience to each session and aims to make therapy straightforward and respectful.

Asha adapts conversations and plans to fit each person’s needs. She focuses on practical steps clients can try between sessions.

Background and approach

This includes ways to cope with panic, improve sleep, handle anger, and manage addictive patterns. She also supports people dealing with parenting strain, career pressures, self-esteem concerns and compassion fatigue. Asha is experienced in helping LGBT clients and those with ADHD to find clearer ways forward.

Sessions can address intimacy-related worries, eating issues and life transitions. People can expect a calm, sensitive approach that balances listening with gentle direction. Asha aims to make sessions feel manageable, even when topics are difficult.

She encourages small, achievable changes that build over time. Therapy is offered in English and available to clients in the United Kingdom and internationally. Asha works through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions to suit their needs.

Therapeutic approaches and online delivery

Asha uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on real-world coping and change. One approach emphasises practical skills to manage anxiety and stress, teaching breathing, grounding and behaviour changes to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. Another approach addresses trauma and its effects by helping people process difficult memories and build safer ways of relating to thoughts and feelings. These methods aim to make symptoms more manageable and improve everyday life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then agree a plan to try. This is a collaborative process, with adjustments made as you learn what works for you.

Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging, which makes it easier to fit appointments into a busy week. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and messaging lets you reflect in writing between meetings. These options aim to offer flexibility and consistent support regardless of location.
