About Ronika
Ronika Martin is an ACA counsellor with seven years' experience supporting people through tough times. She accepts that reaching out can feel hard and meets each person with calm, practical care. She aims to help people feel heard and build skills they can use every day.
Ronika has worked across schools, community organisations, prisons including drug treatment units, NGOs and independent practice. She has run group sessions, supported people experiencing homelessness and worked one-to-one with people facing addiction, relationship conflict and trauma.
Background and approach
That variety means she is used to different life situations and practical problems. She often helps people understand how past coping strategies still affect them now. Ronika uses that understanding to help clients try new, more helpful ways of responding.
Sessions focus on clear, achievable goals and small steps people can take between meetings. Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Attachment-based ideas and person-centred practice. She also uses elements of existential thinking and motivational interviewing to suit each person's needs.
The aim is a collaborative process that fits the client rather than a one-size-fits-all method. Ronika works with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, stress, addiction, grief, relationship and communication problems, low self-esteem and life transitions. She offers sessions in English and Hindi and adapts her style to what each person finds most helpful.
Online approaches that suit busy lives
Ronika commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, then take steps that match their values. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and testing small behaviour changes to reduce anxiety and improve mood.She brings a client-centred, attachment-aware stance to remote sessions too, which means the therapist listens closely to what matters to you and adapts methods to your goals. Finding the right approach is part of the process and she will work collaboratively to choose techniques that fit your needs and preferences.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video is useful for deeper conversation and non-verbal cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat and messaging suit shorter, regular contact and people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments while still getting structured support.
