About Kashina

Kashina Smith offers a practical, person-centred way of working. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, parenting strains and low self-esteem. Kashina presents herself as a supportive counsellor who helps people take small steps toward change.

Kashina uses straightforward conversation to identify what feels hardest right now. She helps people spot strengths they already have and build on them. Sessions aim to be collaborative and paced to what each person can manage.

02

How Kashina works

Her background includes three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. During that time she has supported people dealing with communication problems, fertility-related worries, guilt and shame, infidelity, pregnancy and childbirth concerns, and issues around self-love and sexual assault and abuse. Kashina holds BACP credentials, which indicates registration with a recognised UK counselling body.

She frames therapy as a shared process where people are treated with respect and compassion while they work through difficult experiences. Practical steps in sessions may include talking through recent events, trying out different ways to respond to stress, and setting manageable goals between meetings.

The aim is to help people feel steadier, clearer and more able to make choices that match their values.

Online support options

How therapeutic approaches meet online care

Many counsellors use evidence-based techniques that focus on changing unhelpful thoughts and building coping skills. These approaches help people understand patterns in their thinking and behaviour and practise new responses to stress and anxiety in everyday life. Some methods also focus on processing past hurt and setting safer boundaries after trauma or abuse.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. The counsellor will explore your goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together you will choose or adapt methods so sessions feel relevant and manageable for you.

Online therapy makes it easier to fit counselling into a busy life. Video calls let you see facial cues and body language, while phone sessions need less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging suit short check-ins, journalling between sessions or for those who prefer typed conversation. These options give flexibility around work, appointments and family commitments, while still allowing steady progress with therapeutic techniques.
