Asha Sookhoo, BACP

Asha Sookhoo uses evidence-based therapeutic approaches to help people manage stress and anxiety. She works with clients on a range of concerns including relationships, family conflict, grief and loss. Asha aims to create a respectful and compassionate space where people can take the first steps toward feeling better.

Asha has seven years of experience working in the United Kingdom. She draws on practical methods to help people cope with depression, bipolar symptoms, addictions and ADHD. She also supports those facing career pressures, low self-esteem and challenges with sleep or eating.

In sessions she adapts the conversation and plan to each person’s needs. That might mean short-term practical strategies or a longer plan to work through recurring patterns. She offers coaching-style support for people who want clearer goals and steps.

Asha is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She provides therapy in English and accepts international clients. Session formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging.

Her approach is straightforward and focused on what helps day to day. She aims to help people build coping skills, restore balance, and move through difficult life changes at a pace that suits them.

Evidence-based approaches and online access

Asha uses practical, evidence-based techniques that focus on what helps in daily life. Cognitive-style approaches help people identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviours, which can reduce stress and anxiety and improve mood. Behavioural and coaching techniques focus on small, achievable steps such as sleep or routine changes, activity planning and coping skills for cravings or urges.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Asha will discuss different options and tailor methods to match a person's goals, circumstances and preferences. This collaborative process means the plan can change as progress is made or needs shift.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow a face-to-face conversation when that suits. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a break at work is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, reflections between sessions or when writing feels easier than speaking. These formats help people fit therapy into busy lives and make regular contact more manageable.
