About Aishwarya
Aishwarya Kulkarni is a BACP counsellor working in the United Kingdom with four years of clinical experience. She supports people dealing with issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship problems, trauma and anger. She also assists with concerns including addictions, grief, self-esteem and career stress.
Her style is conversational and collaborative. Sessions focus on practical conversations about what is happening now, while also looking at patterns that come from earlier life. She uses a client-centred base and brings in psychodynamic and trauma-focused ideas when they are useful.
Aishwarya pays attention to attachment and how bonds shape reactions and relationships. She applies motivational interviewing to help people find their own reasons to change. This can be useful for addictions, motivation struggles and stuck patterns in relationships.
She works with identity-related concerns such as LGBT matters and with neurodiversity issues including autism and attention difficulties. Other areas she supports are intimacy-related problems, eating and sleeping difficulties, and coping with life changes like separation or caregiving stress.
Outside clinical work she paints and practises Kathak dance. These activities inform how she thinks about emotion and movement in therapy. To start, clients complete a short questionnaire and book a first session to discuss goals and options.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
A client-centred approach puts the person and their concerns at the heart of sessions. It focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters most to the client, helping them clarify feelings and decide on next steps. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape present reactions and helps people recognise patterns in how they relate to others.Motivational Interviewing supports practical change by helping clients find their own motivations. It suits issues such as addictions, behaviour change and getting past stuckness. These methods tend to be conversational and goal-focused, which adapts well to remote sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and combine methods that fit those needs. This is a collaborative process and the plan can change as therapy progresses.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let someone join from a different location, which helps if routine or work makes attending in person difficult.
