Starting therapy was daunting for me, I often feel that I struggle to articulate how I feel but Reshma put me at ease from the beginning. She I has been extremely calm and patient with me and slowly but surely I am starting to break down the walls I had put up around myself, with her help. I’d recommend her to anyone who’s thinking of starting therapy, particularly if your concerns involve your relationships with others, and yourself. Thanks Reshma.

More about Reshma
- 4 years' experience
- Female
- BACP
I am a professionally qualified and BACP registered counsellor providing 121 counselling for adults and young people. I have over three years experience of counselling clients.
Whatever your reason for seeking therapy, I believe it should be an empowering process. I can offer a safe space where you can learn more about yourself and the person you would like to become. You can expect me to put you first, to be understanding, respectful and non-judgmental. I understand therapy can be a difficult emotional experience. Therefore, I work with you, at your pace to facilitate the process where you find your own answers, make the changes, either externally or within yourself, to enable you to move forward.
I am trained in person centered approach although I do integrate elements of other modalities/resources to address the client’s individual needs.
I have over sixteen years experience of working therapeutically with clients. I have worked for a local authority children and young people service. I have also worked for a leading children’s mental health charity. At present I am working as a counsellor for a women’s charity.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Reshma really cares and listens and has the knowledge and wisdom to help. Her support has helped me to heal and fight the demons
Reshma has been an amazing help, she supported me and guided me while allowing me to explore in a collaborative way. I would highly recommend her service, she is punctual and replies to messages quickly and I am thankful to have had a positive experience
I couldn’t have asked for a better experience in therapy. Our conversations felt like a gentle, guided journey through everything I needed and didn’t know I needed. Everything was backed up by useful resources, knowledge and content that will always be useful. Most of all the experience was very human, it felt like talking to a professional but also a friend.
Reshma has been an amazing therapist. I have a totally different outlook on life due to the tools and support I have received in therapy with her. She is kind, listens incredibly well and gives space when needed. She provides deep insight and is clearly very experienced. I feel lucky and am thankful to be matched with her.
Great understanding and listening. I am glad they picked her for me!
She is very experienced and kind. She listens very well and gives excellent advice and support, I feel very lucky to have been assigned her.
