About Asma
Asma Amjad is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has 15 years of experience. She works with people who feel stressed, anxious, low or unsure how to move forward, and she lists concerns such as relationships, trauma and abuse, addiction, grief and codependency among her focus areas.
She uses an integrative approach and chooses methods to fit each person. That means she draws on approaches like cognitive behavioural therapy and client-centred work to match what someone needs in the moment. Sessions are presented as a place to talk through problems and build practical ways to manage them.
She has worked with people from a wide range of ethnic backgrounds and different life stages. That experience informs how she listens and responds when someone brings issues such as attachment difficulties, abandonment, body image, or struggles around intimacy and parenting.
Asma describes short-term and longer-term work as options. In shorter work she focuses on solutions and clear steps forward. In longer work she addresses deeper patterns such as avoidance, dependency or recurring relationship problems.
Her training and practice include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Mindfulness approaches and Solution-Focused work alongside client-centred counselling. She offers sessions in English and Urdu and works with international clients located outside the UK.
If someone wants to begin, they are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session using the site button.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting driven by them, and to choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and chronic patterns such as people-pleasing. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical steps to change thinking and behaviour, with clear techniques for stress, panic, sleeping problems and low mood. Client-Centred Therapy offers a conversational, non-directive way of working where the counsellor follows the person's pace and reflections.Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the work. The counsellor and client decide together which methods to use, based on the person's goals, difficulties and preferences. That collaborative choice can shift during short-term or longer-term work as new needs appear.
The site biography does not specify session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow a quicker check-in on difficult days. Phone sessions can suit times when low bandwidth or a shorter check-in is needed. Registered or accredited professionals often adapt tasks and exercises for remote sessions so work continues between meetings.
