About Aishwarya
Aishwarya Kulkarni is a counsellor who prefers meeting people in conversation rather than summarising herself on a page. She offers a gentle, non-judgemental style and aims to give people a place to bring what feels heavy. Her manner is warm and paced to each person's comfort.
She uses a client-centred approach as her base and draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at how early experiences might shape today's patterns. Motivational interviewing is part of how she helps people find their own reasons for change.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
A client-centred approach puts the person and their experience at the heart of sessions. It involves listening carefully, reflecting what is heard, and helping people steer the pace and focus of therapy. This approach is useful for people wanting a supportive, non-directive space to understand feelings and make choices.Psychodynamic work explores how earlier relationships and life events may influence current feelings and behaviour. It helps when patterns repeat in relationships or when someone wants to understand long-standing emotional habits. Trauma-focused therapy concentrates on processing painful experiences in ways that reduce their present impact and improve coping day to day.
Deciding which approach to use is a shared process. The therapist will ask about concerns, goals and preferences, and then suggest ways of working together. That plan can change as things unfold, keeping the focus on what feels most helpful.
Online therapy brings practical flexibility. Video calls support a face-to-face style of work, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging allow shorter check-ins or more frequent contact between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while accessing registered or accredited professionals and therapists from different locations.
