Aamirah Khan, BACP

Aamirah Khan is a counsellor with 12 years of experience based in the United Kingdom. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, and challenges like sleeping or eating problems. She also supports people with ADHD, bipolar disorder, and coping with major life changes.

She works in a calm, non-judgemental way that lets people talk about their thoughts and feelings. Her style includes coaching elements to help clients think more clearly and set practical goals. Conversations focus on everyday habits and thinking patterns that affect mood and behaviour.

Her approach draws on several recognised methods, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy. She uses these to help people notice unhelpful thinking, try small changes, and build routines that support wellbeing.

Sessions are planned collaboratively so goals are clear and realistic. Aamirah aims to help people develop tools they can use between meetings, such as simple coping and emotion-regulation strategies. She explains techniques plainly and checks in about progress.

She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown as BACP. Conversations can be held in English or Urdu. If you want to start, the site’s Start Therapy button and short questionnaire are the first steps to match and schedule.

How therapeutic approaches inform online work

Aamirah uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy as part of her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts without fighting them and then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and problems that come from unhelpful thinking patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape present feelings and reactions, helping people understand relationship patterns and improve how they connect with others.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss your goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and together you will try methods that suit your needs. It may take a few sessions to see which techniques fit best and to refine the plan as you go.

The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy life, saving travel time, and making it easier to keep regular appointments. If you need a shorter check-in or a session that fits around work or caring duties, this can often be arranged. The profile does not specify which session formats are offered, so please confirm current options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can guide choices about how to arrange sessions that work for daily life.
