Ayesha Mirza, NCPS

Ayesha Mirza uses a client-centred way of working to help people make sense of their thoughts and everyday habits. She focuses on listening and creating a calm space where people can feel heard and taken seriously. Ayesha believes that each person knows their story best and that small changes can make daily life feel more manageable.

She has four years of clinical experience and has worked in an NHS agency. That background means she has supported people through stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, plus challenges with self-esteem and motivation. She also helps with issues related to adoption and foster care, migration, multicultural concerns, fertility and postpartum depression.

In sessions she follows the client-centred approach, which aims to follow the person’s pace and priorities. Conversations focus on understanding thoughts and everyday habits and finding practical ways to shift them. Ayesha encourages exploring what matters most to the individual and building on existing strengths.

People often come to her wanting to reduce anxiety, manage low mood, rebuild confidence after trauma, or improve how they relate to others. She can talk through obsessive thoughts, phobias, cravings or patterns that cause distress. Her style is straightforward and compassionate, aimed at helping people try realistic steps between sessions.

Sessions are offered in English, Punjabi and Urdu. International clients are accepted. Before booking, readers should confirm current session options and scheduling details.

How client-centred work translates to online therapy

A client-centred approach focuses on listening, respect and following the person’s agenda. Sessions aim to explore thoughts and everyday habits that keep problems going, and to help people try small, realistic changes between meetings. This approach can be helpful for anxiety, low mood, relationship concerns and recovery after abuse.

The work is collaborative. The therapist will help identify which ways of working suit each person’s goals and preferences. Together they decide what to try and how progress will be tracked, with the therapist adapting their style to match the individual’s tempo and needs.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions around work, study or childcare, and reduced travel time so people can use short windows in a day for check-ins. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, readers should confirm current session options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly offer online work that aims to make regular support more convenient and consistent for people managing busy lives.
