About Asma
Asma Amjad is a counselling professional with 15 years of experience who aims to help people regain calm and confidence. She works with individuals facing stress, anxiety, depression and grief. She also supports people dealing with relationship difficulties, addictions, parenting pressures and trauma-related concerns.
Her approach is flexible rather than one-size-fits-all. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centred principles and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to suit each person's needs. Sessions focus on practical steps, clearer thinking and rebuilding everyday routines that feel manageable.
Background and approach
Asma uses straightforward conversation and gentle reflection to help people name what is hard. She offers short-term, solution-focused work as well as longer-term support when needed. That could mean setting small goals, trying different coping strategies or working on unhelpful thinking patterns.
She can help with a wide range of issues including sleep and eating concerns, anger, self-esteem, attachment and abandonment worries, and stress from caregiving or chronic illness. Parenting is a noted area of focus and she can help parents manage overwhelming days and rebuild confidence in their role.
Asma practises in the United Kingdom and is registered with NCPS, the National Counselling Society. She offers sessions in English and Urdu and accepts international clients who wish to work online.

Approach-driven online counselling that fits your life
Asma uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts and move toward values-based action. ACT focuses on making space for feelings while choosing small, meaningful steps that match what matters to you. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical tools for changing unhelpful patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss different methods and together you will decide what feels most useful. That collaborative process helps shape short-term goals or longer plans depending on your needs and preferences.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited, chat can be a quicker check-in and messaging suits people who prefer writing. These choices make it easier to fit counselling around work, caring duties or travel and help maintain continuity when life is busy.
