My therapy approach has been particularly effective with clients with low-self esteem, depression, worry, OCD, trauma experiences and social anxiety.
Experience as a Registered Mental Health Nurse, has complimented my delivery of CBT as this allows my therapy approach to recognise the importance addressing all aspects of health: sleep, exercise and nutrition - all playing a role in the individual’s wellbeing. I am also trained in EMDR to treat PTSD and other trauma related problems.

Alongside this, I support people experiencing low mood, shame, self-criticism, complex relationship patterns, trauma and the impact of earlier or difficult experiences.
Hi, I'm Kasmira. Are you caught in familiar patterns that feel hard to understand or change - struggling with anxiety, difficulties with food or body image, relationship struggles, low self-esteem, grief, shame or self-criticism. Often, these experiences are connected to earlier relationships and ways of coping that once helped you get through, but may now feel limiting or painful. My work is grounded in a relational, psychodynamic approach. Together, we can gently explore how past experiences continue to shape how you feel about yourself and others today, creating space for greater understanding, self-compassion and change.

However, if you are experiencing depression, trying to cope with self-esteem challenges, trauma or PTSD then please do get in touch.
All of us, at times, find ourselves in a place of challenge, pain or trauma, or perhaps simply wanting to see a way forward and change the situation we’re in. Looking for a counsellor takes courage and is hugely positive too because it shows you’re ready for the changes you want to see happen in your life. I am a person-centred psychotherapist ready to support you in that change, and happy to work with you face to face or online, and at whatever pace works best for you.

Many people come to therapy when stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, or long-standing emotional patterns begin to feel difficult to manage alone. I offer online therapy for adults across the UK, providing a confidential and structured space to explore what feels stuck, overwhelming, or unresolved. You may be self-aware and thoughtful, yet notice that insight has not led to the clarity or change you want.
