Aishwarya Kulkarni, BACP

Aishwarya Kulkarni is a counsellor with four years' experience based in the United Kingdom. She welcomes starting conversations and prefers meeting people through dialogue rather than labels. Her style aims to make room for strong emotions and life messiness without rushing to fix things.

Aishwarya works from a client-centred base and blends several approaches to meet each person's needs. She uses attachment ideas to look at relationship patterns and psychodynamic thinking to consider how early experiences affect present life. Motivational Interviewing and trauma-focused ideas are also part of how she supports people through change and painful memories.

Her practice covers many common concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, addiction, relationship and intimacy issues, and stress related to caregiving or illness. She also helps with issues such as self-esteem, anger, eating and sleeping problems, ADHD, and the stresses that come with life transitions and ageing and geriatric issues.

Sessions are offered in English, Hindi and Marathi. Aishwarya describes her manner as warm and collaborative, pacing work according to each person's comfort. Outside of work she paints with pastels and acrylics and practices Kathak dance, activities she says help her stay connected to feeling and movement.

If the approach feels like a fit, readers are invited to begin a conversation when they feel ready.

How Aishwarya adapts therapeutic approaches for online work

A client-centred approach focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. Sessions aim to follow the client's lead, build understanding, and help people name and work through the issues that trouble them.

Attachment-based ideas look at how relationships influence current patterns. This can help when difficulties with closeness, abandonment or communication keep repeating in adult life. Psychodynamic-informed work gently explores how past experiences may shape present behaviour and feelings, which can make current choices clearer.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and try methods that fit the client's goals and comfort. Decisions about focus and pace are made together, and the plan can change as progress is made.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow a shorter check-in when life is hectic. It can also help people keep continuity in care while living abroad or travelling, but details of how sessions are arranged should be confirmed when you start.
