Amreeta Chapman-Aujayeb, BACP

Amreeta Chapman-Aujayeb is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with a BACP registration and 15 years of professional experience. She began her path in clinical psychology and has worked across several countries, which informs her awareness of cultural differences in therapy. She speaks English, French and Hindi and aims to help people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem and depression.

She supports clients who are dealing with trauma and abuse, and those coping with the effects of complex relational problems such as codependency and control issues. Her background includes work with people affected by abandonment, adoption and foster care concerns, and dissociation. Her approach adapts to both longer-term needs and shorter, technique-focused work for issues like confidence, sleep and anxiety.

In sessions she focuses on thoughts and everyday habits, helping clients notice patterns that maintain distress and try out different ways of responding. She draws on a mix of therapies to fit each person’s goals rather than using a single fixed method. The emphasis is on building a working relationship where people feel able to talk about difficult experiences and start practical changes.

Amreeta has experience with trauma-related problems including domestic violence and surviving emotionally abusive relationships, and with personality-related difficulties such as avoidant or dependent patterns. She explains symptoms plainly and helps clients link them to past or current events, then plans step-by-step work to reduce their impact.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions according to the therapist’s schedule. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, so length of work can be adjusted to meet changing needs.

How her approaches shape online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that fit their values rather than being led by worries. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and for people wanting to change everyday habits. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical exercises to shift unhelpful patterns, often helping with anxiety, sleep and confidence. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships affect current ways of relating and can help when patterns of dependency, abandonment fears or trust issues are present.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about their goals and preferences and then suggest a mix of methods to try. This is a collaborative process and can be reviewed as progress is made.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the specific session formats available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around daily life, for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during busy weeks, or enabling sessions when leaving home would be difficult. It also allows a therapeutic conversation to continue consistently when circumstances change, while the therapist helps decide which techniques or exercises transfer well to remote sessions.
