Aishwarya Kulkarni is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of clinical experience. She holds BACP accreditation and prefers meeting people through conversation rather than lists of qualifications. Aishwarya aims to make the first steps into therapy feel manageable and straightforward.

Her style is warm and collaborative. Sessions are paced to suit each person, with emphasis on being heard without pressure. She offers a calm space where people can speak freely about difficult feelings and uncertain moments.

Background and approach

Aishwarya draws on client-centred approaches alongside attachment-based and trauma-focused ideas. She pays attention to how past relationships and early experiences can shape current patterns. Motivational interviewing and psychodynamic perspectives are used when helpful to explore motivation and underlying themes.

She works with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, stress, trauma and abuse, addictions, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, self-esteem, parenting pressures, eating and sleeping difficulties, ADHD and bipolar-related challenges. Additional focus areas include communication and commitment issues, codependency, caregiver stress, domestic violence, and coping with major life changes.

Sessions can be offered in English, Hindi and Marathi and Aishwarya is open to working with international clients. Outside therapy she paints and practises Kathak dance, which she finds helps process emotion and stay grounded.

How Aishwarya’s approaches work online

Aishwarya uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect present feelings and connections. This helps when patterns of trust, intimacy or abandonment keep repeating. She also uses client-centred counselling, which means meetings focus on the person in front of her and their priorities, with the therapist following the client's pace and agenda.

Motivational interviewing is another tool she may use to help people clarify what they want to change and build practical steps towards that change. It’s useful for addictions, habit change and when motivation feels mixed or uncertain. Together these approaches give a balance of exploring past influences, staying present-centred and supporting practical shifts.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods suit their goals, needs and comfort. Over the first few sessions she will check in and adjust the way she works so it fits the individual.

Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls let you see facial expressions and tone, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be a simpler check-in. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter, written contact when that is more convenient. These options provide flexibility so people can choose the way of meeting that best fits their routine.
