About Ayesha
Ayesha Mirza works from a client-centred approach that places the person's experience at the heart of therapy. She believes people know their own story and brings a steady, respectful presence to help them build on their strengths. The first step towards change often feels daunting, and she aims to make that step feel manageable and supported.
She has four years of clinical experience, including work within an NHS agency. That time has given her hands-on exposure to common concerns such as stress and anxiety, low mood, trauma and abuse, relationship difficulties, and struggles with self-esteem and motivation.
Background and approach
She uses straightforward conversation to uncover what matters most to each person. Her practice also addresses a wider range of issues that can affect daily life. These include adoption and foster care matters, fertility and postpartum depression, immigration and multicultural concerns, phobias and obsessive-compulsive patterns, and experiences of prejudice or sexual assault.
She is comfortable discussing complex and painful topics without rushing the pace. Ayesha offers sessions in English, Punjabi and Urdu. She is based in the United Kingdom and accepts international clients.
Sessions are provided through a mix of video calls, phone, live chat and text messaging to fit different needs and schedules. Practical arrangements use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and then books according to Ayesha's availability.

Approaches Ayesha lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Ayesha will discuss goals, preferences and the issues you bring and together decide what feels most helpful. That collaborative planning means therapy can shift over time if different methods or emphases are needed.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging so people can pick what fits their life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be simpler to set up, live chat offers real-time typing for shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family commitments and travel.
