About Ayallah
Ayallah Richards-Mitchell is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She draws on three years of professional experience to help people manage stress, anxiety and difficulties with focus and concentration related to ADHD. She approaches clients with respect, sensitivity and compassion to make talking about hard topics feel more manageable.
Ayallah adapts conversations and plans to fit each person’s needs rather than using one set method for everyone.
Background and approach
She uses practical techniques to reduce worry and to improve everyday focus. She also offers space to talk through grief, anger and relationship strain in a calm, steady way. When trauma or past hurt is part of the picture, Ayallah listens for patterns that keep problems repeating.
She works collaboratively to identify small, workable changes that can make a difference day to day. For seasonal mood shifts she helps clients spot triggers and build coping routines that fit their life. Sessions may blend short-term goals with deeper reflection depending on what a person wants.
Her style is straightforward and warm, with an emphasis on clear steps and realistic strategies. The aim is to support progress and help people feel more in control of their routines and reactions. Ayallah offers online formats to suit different needs, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and ongoing text-based messaging.
She accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English.

Therapeutic approaches and online support
Ayallah commonly draws on client-centred therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy in online sessions. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening without judgement and meeting each person where they are, which helps people feel heard and understood. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and uses straightforward strategies to reduce anxiety and improve concentration.Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they will try methods that suit the person and adjust them over time based on progress and comfort.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and ongoing text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues help, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be useful for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports gradual reflection and frequent touchpoints. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and daily life and to continue sessions from different locations.
