Aishwarya Kulkarni, BACP

Aishwarya Kulkarni is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She aims to make therapy a place where people can stop holding everything together and begin to sort through difficult feelings at their own pace. Aishwarya describes her work as warm and collaborative, and she prefers conversation over labels when getting to know someone.

She draws on a person-centred way of working that keeps the client’s experience at the centre. Aishwarya also uses psychodynamic ideas to look gently at how early life can shape present patterns. Motivational techniques help people find reasons and strengths to change when they feel stuck.

Aishwarya commonly supports people facing issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy difficulties, addiction, grief, eating and sleeping problems, and stress related to work or caregiving. She also works with concerns linked to ADHD, bipolar mood difficulties, attachment and abandonment, body image and cancer related distress.

Sessions are offered in English, Hindi and Marathi, and she accepts international clients. Her registration is with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown as BACP. Fees vary with location and a subscription model is used that can be cancelled at any time.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability by selecting the Start Therapy button. The first meetings are used to set goals and agree a pace that feels manageable.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Aishwarya uses an attachment-based sensibility that focuses on helping people feel understood and connected. This approach looks at how earlier relationships shape current patterns and can help with intimacy, abandonment and attachment concerns.

She also works in a client-centred way, which means sessions begin with listening closely to what matters most to the person. This approach is useful for people who need space to name feelings, build coping skills, and set personal goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will help decide which methods suit your needs, goals and preferences. That choice is made collaboratively in early sessions and can change as you progress.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel and saving time. It can also allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight or conversations that use audio only if video is difficult. Confirm the exact session formats available before booking so you know what to expect.
