About Asma
Asma Amjad is a counsellor who focuses on helping people regain rest and balance in their lives. She uses straightforward conversation and practical techniques to reduce anxiety, stress and sleeping difficulties. She aims to help clients feel more like themselves again and to build confidence in moving forward.
She has 15 years of experience working with people from diverse backgrounds. Her practice covers a wide range of concerns including depression, trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting and carer stress. Sleeping and eating difficulties are among the issues she regularly addresses alongside mood and stress-related problems.
Asma describes her approach as integrative. That means she adapts the way she works to fit the person in front of her instead of following one fixed method. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and client-centred ways of talking when these suit the situation.
She is registered with NCPS, which appears as NCPS in her credentials. She offers sessions in English and Urdu and has experience supporting people from many ethnic backgrounds and age ranges. International clients are accepted.
To begin, she asks people to set out what they want to change and whether they prefer a short-term or longer term course of work. Conversations tend to focus on small, manageable steps to reduce distress, improve sleep and restore everyday functioning.
How Asma's approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then take actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and sleep problems where unhelpful mental patterns get in the way. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact, and offers practical exercises to change patterns that maintain distress or poor sleep.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide whether ACT, CBT or a client-centred conversation fits best, and this can change as progress happens.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and daily routines. Online work can allow shorter check-ins, weekday or evening appointments and less travel, which helps when juggling busy days. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises for remote sessions to support sleep, anxiety and mood concerns.
