About Ayesha

Ayesha Mirza offers a calm, person-centred approach to therapy. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. She speaks English, Punjabi and Urdu and works with people across the United Kingdom and internationally.

Ayesha uses Client-Centred Therapy, which means she listens closely and follows each person’s pace. Sessions prioritise the client’s own goals and experiences rather than a fixed treatment plan.

02

How Ayesha works

This approach is often helpful for people processing trauma, rebuilding confidence, or navigating difficult relationships. She has four years of professional experience, including past work in an NHS agency. That background gives practical experience of a range of emotional and practical problems, such as postpartum depression, immigration-related stress and coping after disasters.

Ayesha also supports people facing issues tied to adoption and foster care, multicultural concerns, and obsessive or compulsive behaviours. Practical matters are kept simple. Sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to suit different needs and routines.

Costs vary with location and therapist availability and are provided through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a person selects the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and then schedules sessions based on the therapist’s availability.

Ayesha aims to create a space where people feel heard and can take the next step toward feeling better.

Online support options

How Client-Centred Therapy works online

Ayesha practices Client-Centred Therapy, which focuses on listening and responding to each person’s experience. The therapist creates space for people to talk through what matters to them and helps them find their own solutions. This approach can be useful for issues like low self-esteem, relationship concerns and processing past trauma. Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Ayesha will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs to decide what will help most. This is a collaborative process where the person’s priorities guide the plan for sessions. Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls are useful when visual connection helps the conversation, while phone sessions suit people who prefer not to be on camera or have limited bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging are offered for shorter check-ins, ongoing reflections between sessions, or when written communication feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family life and travel, and they allow people to choose the format that best supports engagement and consistency.
