About Nanda
Nanda Odedra is a counsellor with four years of professional experience based in the United Kingdom. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar challenges, and trauma and abuse. She also helps with self-esteem, motivation, coping with life changes, family and parenting concerns, and multicultural issues such as infidelity and jealousy.
Nanda believes clients are the experts in their own stories. She focuses on building on existing strengths rather than starting from scratch.
Background and approach
Her approach is practical and straightforward. She aims to make the first steps toward change feel manageable and clear. In sessions she offers steady support and encouragement.
She helps clients talk through what feels overwhelming and identify small, doable steps. Conversations are honest and goal-focused, with space to reflect on values and priorities. Her work includes helping people rebuild confidence after difficult experiences.
She offers ways to manage intense emotions and to develop healthier coping habits. She also assists people navigating relationship stress, cultural tensions, and the fallout from infidelity or jealousy. Nanda explains things plainly and checks that strategies fit each person's life.
She encourages clients to try approaches and adjust them as needed. The aim is to leave people with tools they can use between sessions. For those worried about starting therapy, she aims to make the process simple.
Sessions are intended to be collaborative, paced to what the client can manage, and focused on real changes that matter in day-to-day life.
Approaches and how online therapy fits
Many evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on helping people manage symptoms and build coping skills. One common approach teaches practical strategies for managing anxiety and stress, such as breathing, grounding and stepwise exposure to feared situations; it aims to reduce avoidance and increase day-to-day functioning. Another approach concentrates on processing traumatic experiences and their impact, helping people make sense of what happened and develop safer emotional responses over time. These kinds of methods are often used to help with mood, trauma, relationship difficulties and self-esteem issues.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and decide together which methods match the client’s needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process that can change as therapy progresses, so techniques are adjusted to what helps most in practice.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues, phone sessions can be used when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging works for ongoing notes or brief support between sessions. These options give flexibility for different routines and daily demands, while keeping the focus on practical progress and accessible support.
