About Aishah
Aishah Elgindy is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief and the effects of trauma and abuse. She supports those dealing with depression, addictive behaviours, relationship and intimacy concerns, and struggles with self‑esteem or life changes. Aishah also offers help around parenting, sleeping and eating problems, ADHD and a range of family-related pressures.
She qualified as a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, known as BACP, and has practised for 10 years.
Background and approach
Her background includes work in bereavement support within the NHS and in a specialist antenatal centre for women and children. That experience informs how she sits alongside people during difficult life events. Aishah’s style is warm and person-centred.
She aims to build an open space where clients can talk without judgement. She also blends mentoring and life coaching when useful, so sessions can focus on feelings and on practical next steps. In her practice she uses mindfulness and solution-focused ideas alongside trauma‑focused approaches when needed.
That mix is used to help people notice patterns, calm intense feelings and identify small changes that make daily life easier. Sessions are adapted to the issue and the person. People come to her for help with attachment and abandonment worries, body image and eating issues, fertility and cancer-related stress, and complex family origins.
Aishah works with adults who want steady conversational support and occasional coaching to move forward.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Aishah uses a person-centred way of working that lets the client set the pace. This approach focuses on listening closely and helping people find their own answers, which can be especially useful for anxiety, low mood and relationship worries.She also draws on mindfulness techniques to help people notice thoughts and bodily reactions in the moment. These simple practices can reduce overwhelm and improve sleeping and concentration over time.
The therapist frequently uses solution-focused ideas to identify small, practical steps clients can try between sessions. This approach suits people who want short-term goals, problem solving and clearer next steps alongside emotional support.
Choosing the right approach is a shared process. During the first sessions she will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences, and together they will decide which methods to use and when to adjust them.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls recreate a face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work when bandwidth is lower, live chat fits short check-ins, and text-based messaging lets clients reflect in writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and daily life while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
